One of my favorite things to do while at the Atlanta Market is shop for design and entertaining books. I could spend hours in the showroom flipping through newly released or soon-to-be released titles. I go in to the showroom thinking I’ll order one or two new books and always end up ordering a few more:) Here are some of the new books I’m adding to my bookshelf and a few others I think you’ll love.
Happy reading friends!
