"Good" -

Having read a previous review I did not purchase this book for some time. A friend's birthday came up and the content and price seemed reasonable. When the book arrived I was pleasantly surprised and was really glad I had chosen this particular book. The pictures are good and plentiful, it also makes for good reading. I would most certainly recommend this book for your bookcase.

"I loved it" -

Please don't be put off by the previous review. I had to get the book out again to see if she was looking at the same book! I loved it. Well worth the money and it would make a great gift. The styling is 'eclectic', and yes some of the furniture is shabby, but in a good way. It shows how you can effectively merge styles. I found it beautifully photographed, stylish and inspirational. I guess we are all different aren't we?!
