Good morning, chic readers! I can’t believe it, but my thirteenth novel, Summer State of Mind officially released yesterday! It was the most amazing day, and I can’t thank you enough for all of the book love. If you’re looking to add to your bookshelves, your beach bag – or the perfect gift for Mother’s Day–I’d love it if you’d check it out!
Speaking of bookshelf decor ideas, they are, hands down, one of our favorite parts of any design scheme.
But getting the perfect blend of books and accessories,
deciding to go monochrome or to mix it up, can be tricky.
In either case, Designer Mark D. Sikes shows us how to achieve the perfect look!
Of course, a cozy sitting area where one can curl up with a good book is practically mandatory!
A neutral palette also lends a clean, streamlined look and, as these shelves prove, can still be eye-catching.
We love the symmetry of these bookcases!
Whatever look you love best in your bookcases,

More About SUMMER STATE OF MIND:
“Queen of the beach read,” (Cosmopolitan) New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey returns with a heartfelt escape to coastal Carolina.
After the worst day in her professional life, burnt-out NICU nurse Daisy Stevens runs to Cape Carolina, North Carolina, looking for a new life—and possibly new romance. On her first day at her “simpler” job, high school baseball coach Mason Thaysden discovers an abandoned baby, sending ripples through the entire tight-knit town of Cape Carolina.
Mason is still struggling to reconcile the scars of the injury that kept him out of the big leagues, stuck in his hometown, and searching for a way out. This newcomer and the child they’ve saved together might be just the motivation he needs to stay put. Sparks fly as Mason acquaints Daisy with Cape Carolina, introducing her to his friends and family, including his batty Aunt Tilley, who is looking for relief from long-buried family secrets and her own fresh start.
But as Daisy becomes increasingly attached to this abandoned child, and begins facing her own demons in the process, a startling discovery is made that threatens to rip the entire town of Cape Carolina apart, placing Daisy, Mason, and Tilley in the center of the storm. In a novel that proves that “Kristy Woodson Harvey is (the) go-to for elevated beach reads” (People), they will each learn that with love, understanding—and a community theater production of Hello, Dolly!—sometimes life conspires to bring us just exactly where we belong.
