Best for: I’d have thought me, seeing as I love etiquette and entertaining books. So … not sure.

In a nutshell: Large format, colorful etiquette and entertaining book.

Line that sticks with me: N/A

Why I chose it: I collect etiquette books. I even started my own version of an advice column (in website form). I like making things look pretty. And this book looked like fun.

Review: It wasn’t. I suppose a book written by a brand is probably not going to be the best.

I mean, it isn’t horrible. But it’s hard to read. There are pages full of quotes (as in, two pages with maybe ten words spread across it to pad the book). There are pages with random vignettes from people who I assume I should have heard of, talking about how they entertain. There are recipes. There are suggestions for games - some of which sound kind of fun. There are decor recommendations.

It just wasn’t that fun to read. I only found myself making note of a couple of the suggestions, which is not like me. I don’t know. Maybe I wasn’t in the mood, or maybe it wasn’t a great book. Probably a little of column a, a little of column b.

The first time I ever heard of "Kate Spade" was through Tumblr, I was fascinated by whatever was related to that name, especially that the style was so similar to mine. The colors, boldness, patterns, summer-loving, dresses-wearing, oldies-lover seemed to be in common between us. Not to mention books, movies, accessories, rings, clutches, written letters, typography and most importantly cards.

Even my personal business card screams my style, everyone loves it when they hold it, many remark that it looks like a modern design for a new set of playing cards. This makes me smile.

As a kid, I was super active and I loved to collect playing cards that I randomly found in the streets in an old shoe box. Till this day, I still like to pick them up, the last one I found was of the Queen of Spades. I always wonder how they get on the streets in the first place!
