This book is simple to the point and has very cute mice. This is a motivational book on getting started to declutter. How to start, categorizing, questioning, and organize. Though this book is small it is packed with information. If you are thinking of decluttering this is a good book to get you going.

So as a self proclaimed slob who is always trying to be better - this book was good. I don't think anything stood out, I mean it was all simple and straight forward but there are a ton of tips all in one place which is nice.
What stood out to me was this was a fun book. It was reassuring. I'm not the only one.
It was realistic in a world of unrealistic website and Pinterest posts

I nice short book with some good ideas about decluttering and keeping that status. Of course, there are no groundbreaking ideas. Just was with any diet book, the basic principle for all books on decluttering is identical. But sometimes you find some nice ideas, such as the "gathering basket" in this one. The "stories" about people who take decluttering advice too literal in between chapters were a bit too over the top for me. But all in all, it had some good ideas and food for thought.

This is a great book, especially for those who want to declutter. Anne Watson provides excellent advice, such as to start with small projects and keep your goal in mind. She also advises readers to forget perfection and not to be too hard on themselves.

This book will actually make you feel energised and ready to begin! I also like the amusing dialogues with imaginary perfectionists and the cute animal figures on her helpful website.

I received this ebook from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.

I received a copy of this book for free to read and review through Netgalley. This is a straightforward, to the point book with a wide range of tips to help you keep your house in order. I found it helpful in helping me to de-clutter my home.

The book is to help you find a comfortable solution that you will use to help reorder your home as different things help different people. There are also tips on how to get the whole hose involved. It gives good advice about how to improve the house management, step-by-step.

This is a quick read and has some valuable tips for anyone who feels like getting their home under control is a daunting task. The book did not make me want to do some housekeeping, but it did have excellent tips.
