Summary: Best for the clutter-afflicted who want their lives in order
Comment: My family raised me in an insanely messy environment. My father is likely one of the worst packrats alive, and my mother continuously hides her junk in countless bags. A few years ago I realized my own extreme clutter was a reflection of the disarray in my mind and, cyclically, reason for even further confusion. Perhaps this book isn't for those who already know where cleaning supplies are kept and how planners are used efficiently. But I highly recommend this book if you've not been blessed enough to have learned the aforementioned time-management skills other college students know as truisms (there is SOME reasoning behind the "for Dummies" title!). For beginners, this book will lead you section by section to a home as well as a life that finally has everything in place!

Summary: What a difference!
Comment: I bought this book as a sort of gag for a friend who keeps claiming that he wants to get organized. On the way home I started flipping through it and ended up keeping it for myself. It came along just in the nick of time for my move to a new home. All my life I have been a clutter queen; now I can actually part with things I don't need and showcase the things I really like. My home and work environments are much more functional and enjoyable places to be. It's been several months since I picked the book up and I'm impressed by how much it helped me develop the skills to stick to my promise to get my act together!

Summary: Group Like With Like
Comment: I found this book wonderfully rewarding to read through, anywhere at anytime. I brought it with me when I traveled and I learned several great ideas: my favorite is "group like with like". That single idea cracked my shell and has helped me organize my entire pack-rat house, as well as my parent's basement. Every room in the house is detailed, and the mnemonics (memory devices) are useful as well, such as P-L-A-C-E (Purge, Like with Like, Access, Contain, Evaluate). Very well written, and organized! The time management section were very useful as well, such as travelling tips. The "Part of Tens" section at the end was very interesting as well, but I won't give away any secrets!
