I've been using Blurb for years, and I really like being able to have up to 400 pages in a hardcover book (though my annual books usually end up around 100-150 pages, it's nice to have the flexibility!). Their binding is really good quality too - some of the other photobook printing companies I've tried (Snapfish and Artscow) were quite flimsy with their stitching/gluing and haven't stood the test of time.

With Blurb, one of the template options within their software creates a half inch white border around the pages, which means I can drag and drop my 12x12 layouts without worrying about any cropping.
