My thoughts:

This book came at perfect timing for me!  With the school year starting my goal was to work on clearing things out of our house and reorganizing.  This book has been great to read as I am doing that!  The author has practical ideas to help you declutter your home in a manageable, successful way.  I've already tried out several of of her strategies.  

I also really like the format of this book.  It is small in size and has full color photos with before/after pictures to give you ideas about what you are reading.  I also appreciate that each strategy is short and you can read and gain new information/idea to try quickly...you don't have to go thorugh pages and pages to get to the point.  I like those short chapters! 

Buy it here! It is so helpful and an easy read!
