I like the size. I like the cover quality. I gifted it while still wrapped so I can't comment on the inside.

If you love Nicole, Michigan, Minnesota, old houses, integrity, passion, families, unapologetic straight talk from an inspiring, strong woman, you'll love this book.  I bought a new copy, rare for this lover of used books, because I knew I'd want to keep it in my collection.  I am from Michigan, love Detroit, and hugely respect anyone willing to defend it and work to rebuild its pride, so I fell in love with Rehab Addict and Nicole from first view.  She's effortlessly beautiful so you want to hate her but she's not afraid to let you see her without her hair and makeup done because she's proud of the muscle, sweat, dark circles, and exhaustion that comes from seeking her passion with everything she's got and encouraging you to do the same.  She is not afraid to admit mistakes, and this book is all about what she's learned from them.  But it's also a book of encouragement to all of us, and a reminder to treasure the old and once loved.  When you finish this book you will feel like you are one of Nicole's many friends.  Great photos and resources throughout.  Can't wait to get back to Detroit and look up some of those markets Nicole has introduced us to.  #homesick

Review courtesy of TheTatteredPage.com*Warning: This review may contain spoilers. Read at your own risk.One-word Review: INSIGHTFULReading Tune:  Game of Survival  - RuelleOpening Line:My parents didn't exactly jump for joy when I decided to drive headfirst into adulthood by moving south with my boyfriend right after my high school graduation.My Review:First off, I have always enjoyed shows the centered on home renovation. Years ago, I saw Nicole's Rehab Addict, a show that incorporated my love for old house and home renovation and it was headed by a woman! I always wanted to go into revonation real estate and as a woman, seeing Nicole conquer it head on, I was immediately hooked. Better Than New was jsut as captivating as Rehab Addict, as it is informative and inspiring. An engrossing page turner, I could not put the book down.While not the most fantastical writing, the story felt genuine and that perhaps is what makes it so compelling. I was drawn into the story. The writing wasn't flowery or beat-arond-the-bush, instead it was direct and spoke to you on a personal level - as if Nicole was right there having a conversation with you.Readers got an exclusive peek into in the tell-all of Curtis’ life like never before.Curtis’ voice is that if an old friend telling stories of days past over steaming cups of hot chocolate. While I read the book, as aforementioned, I felt as if Curtis was talking directly to me. Her voice felt real, honest. She did not hold back. Not even the embarrassing moments or romantic blunders. We learned more about her post-Rehab Addict life, about her son and his father, about her struggles as a single-mom trying to find her way. How she turned her love for old house into a passionate career, how she landed the Rehab Addict television contract, her hopes and dreams and the not so made-for-tv blemishes.Coming from the standpoint of wanting to go into renovation real estate as well, I do wish there were more tips and tricks and facts about how Nicole went about renovation her houses. But, I realize purpose of Better Than New was to be an autobiography. Having said that, I do hope she would publish a work that included said desires.All in all, Better Than New is fresh, real and insightful. A treat for fans of Rehab Addict -- or any who desires to behind-the-scenes account. If you are a Rehab Addict addict then you will be obsessed with Better Than New. Read Better Than New, you will not be disappointed.Happy Reading!
