This wasn't the book that I thought it was going to be and that's fine. I enjoyed the focus on re-framing possessions to not just be "stuff" but a part of your personal and family story. But that's a perspective I already have, so the half of the book focused on that wasn't that helpful.

As someone how has a healthy love of stuff, and for whom most stuff "sparks joy," I was really looking for good tips on how to get started and deal with the emotional attachments to stuff. I found Kodanaz's focus on the emotional reasons underlying procrastination really helpful, and i hope to put her "piles' technique into practice.

Someday.
