In most cases, if decorations occupy whole block in game (12 voxels in editor) its easier to find extra uses for them.
Its been few years since player-made decorations have been put in game, and im happy enough the Gamigo team is interested in decorations at all. With that said, current guidelines from them require all deco to be 12 voxels tall and seriously doubt two voxels on a feather would affect the design of this book much.

I can understand that a table needs to be 12 voxels high, wouldn't have it in any other way. The thing that was grinding my gears is that all decos need to be 12 voxels high even though they are not a table or chair. Also, a 12 voxel tall chair on which ppl are not going to float would not be good since a table must be 12 voxels in height, unless you make a barstool, but again, it would be as high as a bar. What I want to say is that these are called "decorations" and decorations are not always practical. (not saying that they shouldn't be practical, but there should be some leeway) 
Sadly decorations have to occupy full 12 voxels height. Only exception are carpets - 1 voxel high and completely flat.
Dev-made decorations and decorations from old times tend to ignore this, but for nowadays player-made deco it is mandatory. It ensures proper placement in game and helps with increasing amount of uses for deco. Probably not for a book with a feather, but its generally good when decorations can be stacked and/or other deco can be placed on top. For example 12-tall table or vase can have other deco placed on top of it, 12-tall chair can have player /sit and not levitate and so on.

Shouldn't it be "up to 12 voxels high" and that implies that it doesn't have to be 12 exactly?
Hello!
The book is so cute :D Good job on the design, the shape is blocky and the colors are happy, very Trovian!
Things that stop me from approving it right away:
- one voxel can not be both Glowing on Type map and Metal on Specular, if its Glowing it has to be Rough on _s.qb and if its Metal, it has to be white on _t.qb. I think completely metal ring would work just fine :)
- all decorations have to be 12 voxels tall, while yours is 11. a voxels or two on top of the feather should easily solve this
As a side thought, you think it could be Forbidden Spires deco instead of Highlands? There is much less deco in Spires and your book would fit right in :)
Going to change status of your creation to Active, please set it back to Needs Review when you upload an updated model.
Edit P.S. : Forgot to say, thank you for uploading the blueprint file! Please be sure to name it according to a template of styletype_stylename[CreatorsName].blueprint, in your case that would be deco_book_of_journeys[Pplayer2001].blueprint
