Sassy Brit (97 KP) rated Miller's Mid-Century Modern in Books
Jun 5, 2019
This large, hardcover book is sets out to share with you the best styles of interior, and furniture design history from the 1940s to the 1970s. Included within are also selective pieces of ceramics, glass, metalware and textiles .
It’s a beauty of a book, and alongside being an arty one full of great designers and their precious designs, I think the most interesting part of this, (that many people will be buying this for) are the price codes to see how much everything is worth – should they have one of these (sometimes extravagant) items in their own collections. Although, this is not a Millers Antique guide and more of a coffee table book with lots of large pictures. Plus, many of these pieces featured are way out of most people’s budget. Well, in my circles, anyway!
Having said this if you love interior design, famous designers and do like collecting antique furniture and bits and bobs, this will make a lovely edition to your coffee table book collection.

On each page there’s additional facts with engaging pictures. There’s also a full subject index, which will have information seekers drooling. Young and old, alike.
An ideal book for any list-loving who enjoys learning new things and discovering mind-boggling facts you just wouldn’t find anywhere else.
Perfect for quiz masters, curious minds, and for use as a coffee-table book to get the conversation flowing!

This book is full of poems of ideas that you have most likely thought or heard throughout your life. It’s nothing profound but it’s nice to be able to flip through and have these tumbleresque moments in one place.
A great book to put in the bathroom or on a coffee table with other magazines.
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Wolf Sanctuary: The Wolves of Speedwell Forge in Books
Jul 12, 2018
The highlight of this book is obviously the photos. You can tell that Chuck Rineer is a phenomenal photographer. He was able to show the personality of each wolf that he photographed. It was wonderful to experience those photos & I will have to follow his social media pages so that I don't go through withdrawal. I enjoyed the photographs but the writing was a bit bland. I would have loved to learn more about the wolves but the writing didn't do the wolves justice.
All in all, this will be a great coffee table book to flip through.
