Summary: Cookie Cutter Designs
Comment: If you want to recreate one of the party themes featured in her book, then this is the book for you. However, if you want to learn more about creating your own themes and ideas, get another book. I saw Katie Brown on Oprah today, and she came across as very professional and creative. I was hoping her book would have the same creativeness and would be full of ideas as well, but I was mistaken. Her book lays out 16 plans for specific parties, and gives no real information on what she was thinking as she planned them, ideas for future parties, and the like. I was lucky enough to browse the book before I bought it, and it seemed like the majority of the book was recipes, and instructions, as well as anecdotes about herself. I would not recommend this book to buy, it is not worth the $25-$35 you would put into purchasing it, unless you plan to use every design in the book, or you already know how to entertain and want a few new ideas. The book doesn't teach you about entertaining, it only give you a few entertainment ideas.
Rating: 5
Summary: It's one of the best entertaining books out there.
Comment: I was a little disappointed in some of the other reviews. Katie Brown has put together a fine book. Anyone who has seen her show knows that her ideas are supposed to be easy, quick, inexpensive, and fun. And that's exactly what she's shown here. I love Martha just as much as the next person. But I want more realistic ideas and that's what Katie offers. Hats off to Katie Brown, for a fun book.

Summary: A Katie, yes, but a Martha? No!
Comment: I remember watching Katie Brown on lifetime tv and thinking that she had such great ideas. I would often use her wonderful recipes or ideas in my own home. So when I saw this book I thought, wow, she's got a book. So I bought it. Yes, it has some good ideas, and yes it had some good recipes, but it's missing something! The 16 occasions, menues, and tables, just didn't flow. And some of the ideas could have already been thought of before. If you're a huge fan of Katie, then I would recommend it, but if not, head on over to the Martha Stewart selection cause you'll be much happier.
