I'm a big fan of pictographic books. As well as good written literature and poetic books. So I think I'll enjoy reading Artworks. I firmly believe that there is nothing more sexy than a well written book.Thanks for the recommendation and congrats on the BOTD.

This looks like a good book on art and poetry, but since sensuality is the main theme of the book, I will have to pass on it. Thank you for the review.

I enjoyed reading We are Voulhire and I liked the way the writer expressed each characters personality in the book.

The content of this book seems interesting; combining words to form shapes. Calligram defines this process. I will consider reading "Artwords" by Beatriz M. Robles to learn more about this art.

The review did much more to make the book interesting than the sample did, since that only includes the table of contents. I'm still not sure it's for me, but at least I have a much better idea of what's in the book! I'm imagining those old pictures made out of words on dot matrix printers - but I'm sure it's nothing like that.

Guess brick and mortar stores had some advantages!

The author employs the unusual concept of calligram, a creative way to enhance the impact and understanding of the written word by incorporating visual elements. I'm keen to explore and gain a deeper understanding of this approach, particularly in the context of poetry and artwork. I'd love to delve deeper into this topic and read an entire book. Nice review.

A special edition full of hilarious endings, I love the book since it revolves mostly on intimacy and this is an important factor in life to the greatest percentage of almost 95% of adults. The Art word is almost magical and well brought out.. Nice one.!

I find this book very interesting because I believe that I have finally found a book that will interest both me and my sister. I enjoy poetry and my sister enjoys artworks. So, there is a beautiful combination here.
