Review: Everything fabulous - This book is a treat for your eyes as well as a fountain of knowledge from an incredible talent... Debi Lilly! There are fantastic stories from "perfect events", savory recipes, eye-popping photos and inspired ideas for every party a person could imagine. I have been lucky enough to have been an attendee at a party or two of Debi's, and I'm delighted to buy this book to pass out as a hostess gift to my friends. Review: beautiful book - I am a bit partial to this book for many reasons! However, I took my copy to work and quickly had requests for 7 more books!!! This book sells itself. A beautiful collection of ideas that are easy to recreate and so georgeous.

A big disappointment
After reading all of the favorable reviews, I really looked forward to receiving this book but found it to be a huge disappointment. I entertain a lot & felt this book would give me new & creative ideas, but there is not much new here. I also felt the photography did not give a nice visual chronicle of the events & some of the descriptions for decorating or presentation leave much to be desired. I think this book might be helpful for someone new to entertaining, but it is not one a seasoned hostess would reach for again & again.

Disappointed in quality
While I love Debi Lilly, this book is somewhat of a disappointment. The photographs are quite inferior, they truly don't capture what they should. This book is not the visual delight that it should be, I've read blogs that do a better job with presentation. Sorry, not a winner.
