Creating a photo book with different size photos

Question

I would like to create a photo book in Lightroom and send to Blurb to be printed. I don't want the same layout for every page. I would like some full size, 4 to a page (2 x 2), 2 to a page (both laid out horizontally or vertically) or some combination of 3 photos.

I'm completely flummoxed by Lightroom's book module. I'd like to start with a blank book, ,specify the overall size of each page, and then say for this page I want this layout and drag the photos on to the page. Setup a new layout for the next page, and drag photos to it. Is this possible?

When I start the book module, I see this:

What do I do next?

The grey pages can be used for photos, and many layout templates are available if you select the page (yellow background) then you can select from the layout templates in the context (Drop-down) menu- Then see the [Add Page] button in the Page Panel, or [Right-Click] on a page to [Add a Page]

You can also 'Free-form' photo cells on a selected blank page with a [Right-Click]- Resizing and re-positioning cells on a page. You can also save your own free-form page as a Custom template Preset for future use.

Also in the Page panel you can choose and set a Page Template that make it easier to [Add Page] with the same template to many new pages.

The Auto-Layout panel can also be edited to use a preferred Page Template that will automatically fill every photo to the book with the template in the Auto-Layout Preset.
