Alessandro Posted November 29, 2019 Hi all, I'm pretty new to the hobby and am thinking to start with the modulars therefore I thought "The LEGO Neighborhood Book: Build Your Own Town!" can be a good choice. "The Unofficial LEGO Builder's Guide 2nd Edition" seems interesting as well. Are they good books? Do you have any suggestion? Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
