COPY ISBN
This third book in Galvan’s “Cozy White Cottage” series (after Cozy White Cottage Seasons) guides readers in finding their own sense of coziness in the home they already have. It features numerous pictures and illustrations, tips, checklists for cleaning and maintenance projects, and more. Some libraries may be concerned about the reusability of the workbook questions at the end of each chapter, but they are short and could perhaps be used as part of a special home economics program for patrons. Galvan mentions her Christian faith as an example of how she achieves her personal idea of coziness, but she urges readers to find their own or their family’s version of comfy and cozy.
VERDICT Great for public libraries. May be a good title for patrons to read in a crafts/home-design book group.
