this review counts for the "better home and gardens" deck book I'm going to review next. they're both great starter books, with decent ideas. i would even say they hold up with the times in many aspects.
but, the thing is, I rent. and I'm going to for a long long time. so why do I have books on decks? well they were my opas. and I'm a book hoarder. but that's done now. I think.
