I am not impressed with this book – there are so may boring, lifeless plans, and they are all completely disorganized. You can’t search for homes by square footage, for example, or style, etc. It is a big jumble. And the designs look like every other house out there. If you don’t mid leafing through every page to find a few things you may be looking for, it might be worth the money. And, most of the homes are on the smaller side.
