Current Coffee Table Book Favorites
Even if many of us have more time on our hands right now I have to confess it's been harder to focus while reading these last few weeks. I've been inching my way through a few novels but find that coffee table books are a better fit for my mood - the perfect blend of escapism and bite-sized prose or short essays to enjoy right now. I brought a few of my favorites to the shore and have been adding to my stash while here. From old standbys to new reads here are 10 coffee table books that are equally wonderful whether resting on your coffee table or open on your lap.
- Holiday - David gave me this book as a Christmas present and it is marvelous. A compilation of the best articles and photographs from the old (and now out of print) travel magazine called "Holiday", it's full of vintage photography and delicious travel inspiration.
