I ordered this on my Kindle and it was difficult to really appreciate the art work, or read some of the quotes, because it is darker than pages of a book. I'm sure it would be much easier to read it in book form.

I bought this book as a gift for my best friend and she loved it so much that I bought a copy for myself. It's the perfect pick-me up, girly, designer book one could possibly have. AND it's a cute coffee table book too!

The artistry in this gorgeous book is only matched by the exceptionally good selection of quotes. This is the kind of book you could open once a day for years, and something new would strike you

about it each time. Without being cheesy or heavy handed, this serves as delicious nourishment for the spirit. Plus it makes the ideal graduation gift! Bravo, Lisa!

This is basically a hard cover, multi-page hallmark card. If you're trying to tell somebody that they're special, this is a great gift. Especially if that person is a female friend. However, after the day the book is given, it will probably never be read again. There is no story, and it is not an entertaining read. In sum, great gift, and that's it.

I bought this book with the intention of giving it to a dear family member as a thank you present, but when it arrived, I found myself wishing I had my own...so then I bought two more. This book is a great alternative to flowers or any other generic gift. I've enjoyed finding pages that remind me of friends, slipping a quick note into those pages, and mailing the book off to them to inspire and encourage them.The quotes are well-curated, the illustrations beautifully crafted, and the colors striking. Seriously, there's something here for everyone. So, for your next gift-giving occasion, you'd better skip the flowers, put down the candy, and order up this gem instead.

Congdon is an incredible artist with a knack for picking the most poignant and moving quotes that stick with you beyond first read. The lettering and illustrations are stunning. This is the perfect gift for a loved one or to keep on your bedside table and read each night or morning for inspiration.

On a trip my youngest daughter fell in love with this book as she browsed through it. I felt it would be more meaningful for my older daughter. Obviously, I purchased two. Excellent meaningful quotations. Oldest daughter uses it as a source of inspiration and writing prompts for middle school students.

I think this would be a nice gift for a new graduate; the sayings are quite inspirational, and the artwork is nicely done.
