Lindy: Lauren presents a number of homes she’s lived in or worked on. I enjoyed her stories behind the designs and the choices she made.

Lana H: Lots of great in-depth thoughts by the author, but still feeling like an informative decor book with soul.

Amazon Customer: As a longtime fan of Lauren’s, the book is a welcome addition to my library. A few reviewers have mentioned seeing some of the images from this book in her other books - which is true, but totally necessary. The best thing about Lauren’s books is the writing. The way she approaches design is simple and easy to understand, and this book is no exception. I finished it feeling reenergized to crack on with decorating my own home. If you’re a fan of Lauren’s work already this book absolutely will not disappoint - there are so many additions I had not seen before that made it more than worth purchasing.
I’ve also noticed a few comments about the paper quality - this book is not printed on glossy paper but I actually prefer that. The pages feel good in the hand and the colours feel true to real life - but of course that’s a total personal preference! Just thought it might be worth mentioning.

sta: This is a lovely book. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars because there are many pictures that were also in her past books, but I still loved it. Lauren Liess is definitely my style muse and her books are a mixture of therapy and style inspiration. A past reviewer mentioned not liking the paper. The paper is thinner and matte. I believe her previous books had thicker paper and a gloss finish. This change didn’t bother me.

Kim S.: Really enjoyed reading this book. I love design books but sometimes they can get really technical or boring because Ive read the same techniques many times before. This book is more about making you think about how you want to live in your home and what makes it special to you. Reading the authors story of decorating her own homes and how much each experience ment to her really kept my interest as well as taught me my home doesn't have to look like just whats on trend at the moment.

JJ in the mountains: I'm so glad I preordered this book to complete my Lauren Liess trilogy. As she says, this book is more of her personal take on home, family, life and actually gives you a peek into the soul that goes into her interior designs. She is clearly talented and continues to expand her skills as well as the concepts she brings to her spaces (plus I love that she and her husband and adorable kids make family a priority too). The photography is stunning as well! So glad I added this book to my home collection! Buy it...you won't be sorry (buy all 3 of her books if you don't yet own them).

Amazon reader: I was looking forward to this book and it does not disappoint. Only half way thru because the text is outstanding & I don’t want to miss anything she has to say. Yes the paper isn’t as thick & glossy but at today’s cost of printing it didn’t cost $100 or more.
I don’t think I have ever had a designer explain the essence of “home” as well. It isn’t about the “style” (although her’s is wonderful!) but about everything that creates “style”. She’s quite right about creating a home in which to live not to showcase for others.
Thank you, Lauren, for opening up yourself to us! By the way 10 years ago I also purchased a book of DaVinci engravings to frame as artwork- thought it was MY Ingenuity!
Don’t just view the pictures - read her words for the heart & soul of “Feels Like HOME”.
