Book sizes and page layout

Book sizes: 
I decided to only look at 'A' sizes for my book, because paper are usually in this standard size for printing

A4 (A3 fold)
A5 (A4 fold)
A5 (A3 Fold)
Quite liking A5 landscape. Anything smaller than A5 would be too small I think.

Page layout:
I went to look for some page layout inspiration from the books I already own, I really like this one in particular ('Wild' by Emily Hughes):

decorative pages at start and end 

simple short sentences 

one illustration across two pages

text on one page and an illustration on the other to support it 


New story idea, "They're after me!" 
(inspired by 'Schizophrenia' by Jukebox the Ghost - character's feelings and hallucinations based on information/statistics collected from research):

front cover
