Simon & Schuster At Home with Madame Chic: Becoming a Connoisseur of Daily Life

Saw author on Youtube then bought this for myself. Am only on p. 50 of it but it's interesting, well-written & relays information in a humorous manner. Really like the book!!

It is easy reading book. Nothing special. I didn’t find any advice that I didn’t hear before.

Está encantador este libro, me ayudó a muchas cosas, lo recomiendo.Es muy interesante, la escritora es buena. So lovely.💕💕💕

Another great book from Ms.Scott. I would recommend reading her first book, 20 Lessons I Learned from Madame Chic, before reading this one. I find it helpful, especially when she references that book and it's a good base to start with.I enjoyed more useful tips and suggestions for being a connoisseur of daily life. There are many references to someone who has the ability to stay-at-home or work from home, so one may not relate to that if you are a full-time career woman or at a different stage in your life. There are also quite a few examples of home life including small children, so you may not need this information, but this is from Ms. Scott's experiences, so it makes sense and some of these tips and suggestions may still be applicable to your own life if you tweak them to your own situation.I thoroughly enjoyed ways to prepare for different meals - alone or with guests or for special occasions and / or different times of day. Recipes are great along with other suggestions of what to food and drinks to serve and how to set the table and prepare your home for yourself, family and guests are useful and fun. Ms. Scott does a great job describing, explaining and providing examples for living a chic life.If you are in search of more stories of Ms.Scott's time in France, specifically at the Chic residence, you will be a little disappointed, as this book is more about what Ms.Scott does at home in California. I think of Madame Chic in the first book as Ms.Scott's host in Paris, and Madame Chic in this book as Ms.Scott herself. I'm not sure if that's correct, but it makes sense to me to think of it that way. We can all be Madame Chic, too.The book jacket is darling and the pages and layout are nice. It would be a lovely book to leave on a table in a guest room or give as a gift. It's a fairly quick and easy read and leaves you feeling inspired and happy with all of the positive writing and great ideas to improve your everyday life at home.I am looking forward to reading what else Ms.Scott has to share with us in her third book coming out later this year!

ペーパーバックを想像してたんですが、きちんとハードカバーの本で日本で売ってる本みたいでした。内容も前作と変わらない雰囲気で…まだ前書きしか読めてませんが(笑)。これから読むのが楽しみです。字はそんなに小さくないので読みづらい感じもしないです。ちょっと洋書読んでみたくて、前作が好き、という人ならぴったりだと思います。
