I can not find the Miles Redd book anywhere and it is out of stock, boohoo! I did just get Charlotte Moss' new one and like it. I also bought an entertaining book that is my fave pick-up in years, Soiree by southerner/Georgian Danielle Rollins, and love love love it! Let me know any of these you get and that I must have!
