When I open up a magazine, pages like this are the ones that make me want to flip to the next page. Theres some sort of simplicity but complexity to this spread at the same time. I like it when the words on the pages are sectioned off, like the second. It makes me think that I can pick and choose what I can read based on my interests. If it consists of one big blob, I find that I have to read everything before the part that interests me. Although the text boxes are separated, it flows with the page and the visuals instead of feeling all over the place. The white spaces on the first page could be described as art alone. The image inside the letter keeps the readers eye interested for a couple seconds most likely too. The separation of images on the second page keep my eye bouncing around at first glance, It seems balanced in its own way. All around I love how this page is designed, and if I were reading I would definitely be eager to flip the page.
