Bookish Tuesday- Better Than New by Nicole Curtis


Better Than New: How Saving Old Homes Saved Me
Find Better than New at Amazon or your local Bookstore


If you’re looking for a “How To” book this isn’t it. If you’re a Nicole Curtis Fan, looking for a great memoir or need a bit of uplifting reading this is for you.

From the First, Nicole Curtis had a passion for doing more and she turned that into a thriving business rehabbing old homes, not just flipping them for profit but bringing them back to their original glory. While the book touches on some of her homes, it’s really about the woman behind the homes. While we all watch Nicole on HGTV from our couches with stars in our eyes, it’s even more inspiring to see she really is human, just like us. We can all take something away from reading about her ups and downs and he ability to face challenges head on. She tells of lessons she learned as a single mom working multiple jobs, fight for what she knew in heart to be right, then also the heartbreak of being let down by the people she trusted most, something that anyone could relate to.
While reading this book you’ll feel like you’re sitting on the porch of one of those great homes having a conversation with Nicole. She shares personal insights into her life and motivations. It answers questions you never knew you had about the show and its star.

It is wonderfully written and the behind the scenes pictures only add to the charm. If you’re a fan great,if you’ve never heard of Rehab Addict that works too, this is a trip through Nicole Curtis’ life and how she became the person she is today. A empowering read for not just women but anyone who is thinking about following a dream or wanting to just try something new. It’s not always rosy but it’s well worth the trouble.
