Just ordered my blog as a book!
I used Blurb.com because they are known for their software to turn a blog into a book and also I had two groupons (I paid $20 for a $60 blurb gift card). So I did the automatic upload...and didn't like it. They put a full page with hardly any text and small pictures for almost every layout. So I went through- all 400 pages- and re-did it. It was a looong process and took me a few different sessions but guess what! I finished. But then...I go to order it. I let it upload...since it is 1600+ pictures, it took hours. So I upload it and go to order it...but it only takes one Groupon. They tell me they can only do one and that's it. So I was able to duplicate the book and delete half of it and duplicate it again and delete the other half and order each side. Total after taxes and shipping it was $56. For 2 books of 200 pages each. I am excited to get them! Annoying that I then had to re-upload each book and order them, but so glad I could do it and it's done!

I'm working on mine right now. It is a long process but I will be glad when I have my family history all in books in 50 years. I'm glad to know about groupons now though!
So far I have only done one book because it was such a long and tedious process. I went with blurb.com but formatted it myself and it was totally worth it! My problem is I write so much and share so many pictures.
