Summary: Finally - Help I Could Use!
Comment: This is a gem, and is on my short list of books that I'd recommend to anyone. There are some very key, simple ideas presented in a straightforward and very organized way. It has helped me change some of my worst habits. You need to read (and use!) this book.

Summary: Missed the mark
Comment: When I first skimmed through this book, I thought it would prove to be very helpful. Unfortunately, although there are some very good suggestions they are overshadowed by poor humor and what many people would consider unacceptable advice. Although I agree with the author that there are few legitimate reasons for keeping old textbooks (though I am sure, unlike the author, that there are exceptions), I would have to disagree that everyone except football stars and homecoming queens should throw away their high school yearbooks. Just because it was a "lackluster" experience for her does not mean the rest of us do not genuinely cherish those memories, good and bad. Not only do I look at mine from time to time, I have actually used it as a reference when trying to remember someone's name, or when a friend has brought up someone from high school, but I can't put a face to the name. I have read other clutter control books that have had suggestions that are the same or similar to her good ones, but most of those acknowledge keeping mementos, some collections, or other sentimental items, and realize that what fits that description varies from person to person. I want to live in an organized clutter free home, not a sterilized environment.

Summary: Now I've got the organizing bug!
Comment: I am a die hard clutter maniac. I admit it. I bought this book last year for myself and I am amazed what it has done for my house. Not only does it give good solid advice on where to start and how to manage your clutter, but it's funny too! The author interjects her experiences as a professional organizer and the very cluttered people she's worked with.
You don't need to read every word of this book to get going. It is organized by area and you can just jump to the section you are having problems with. Hey, it inspired me to clean out my basement and my closet in a month. Quite an accomplisment for any book.
