Summary: Many people may like this style, but it's not for me...
Comment: I saw the cover of this book and was was really hoping I would love the contents just as much. Unfortunately I didn't find anything I liked in it, except for the cover repeated inside. To me the cover looks gorgeous, timeless, comfy, casual and pretty but I was disappointed when I couldn't find much inside that was similar to that.
I would definitely recommend instead of this, Country Chic: Country Style For Modern Living by Liz Bauwens. The rooms in Country Chic are really inspiring to me and there is also a wide variety of country styles in that book, some of which I didn't even know would be considered country. The rooms are much more comfy looking, casual, pretty and serene. The author gives a lot of great advice and tips without dictating one particular style. I'm surprised it isn't as popular as it should be because it's a great book in my opinion. I'm just really picky about decorating books...a lot of times I'll love the tips and ideas that a book has, but I won't like the pictures as much, but Country Chic offers me both. My only complaint about Country Chic is I wish it were longer.
Anyway, I'm glad I didn't judge this book by it's cover and just buy it right away, I borrowed it from the library. I can see from the previous reviews that a lot of people like it, but before anyone buys it they should definitely check it out at the library to see if it's suits them.
I gave it 2 stars, one star for the pretty cover and the other because it may suit other people. :)

Summary: Brings country style up to date
Comment: This book is wonderfully fresh and current. It brings country style up to date and avoids the usual country clichés. Very inspirational yet filled with ideas too. I'd say that this book is a must for anyone who loves casual country style.

Summary: A lovely getaway book. Also see Second Home.
Comment: This is a book to escape into. As a designer, I appreciate the well-designed homes and interiors and the fact that this book puts a fresh 2001 spin on a classic design style. It looks to me as if most of the featured homes are vacation or weekend homes, which may explain the casual,freewheeling feeling that the photographs impart. This is one of two favorite books on my reading table at the moment.
The other favorite is another yummy getaway book - called Second Home - which shows a broader range of home and interior design styles, all set in fabulous getaway locations.
