I love this book. I wasn’t expecting to get as much out of this as I did. I thought I’d learn the latest method for organizing my house from a book with a catchy title. I wasn’t really expecting it to be anything life-changing, until I read it. It’s so much more than a book on how to declutter and o...
I know a secret. If you have too much stuff and it’s bugging you then get rid of it. All of it. Well, nearly all of it. Save a few things but only the things you absolutely love, the things that spark joy within your being (you’ll know it when you feel it, says the author) and don’t bring more thing...
Let me summarize this book first: Tidying consists of two steps: 1. discard things you don't really need (when you touch your hand on it, you don't feel joy); 2. put things where they should be (What's really important is to know where to put things back. Don't over-categorize things. Just stick...

I like Kondo's idea of keeping things that spark joy. It seems like a much simpler, easier way ...
Post-read edit: Added 4th star. Rarely do I see self-help books which really help, once you give them the chance.This is a really useful book, particularly therapeutic if you feel guilty about throwing away/ donating your things; the author reasons with the reader, patiently providing statistics (th...
This book was thrust upon me by my sister. I really enjoyed a lot of parts of this book but it gets really spiritual. It's fine it was a little over the top for me. It did motivate me to work on decreasing the clutter in my life so I guess it was effective. We'll have to see if it becomes a long t...
I've read a lot of books on organizing. If I'm feeling stressed, and I feel like my "stuff" is taking over my life, I'll read another organizing book and then use this new knowledge to clean/declutter yet again. This book was highly recommended by a blogger I follow. I'm glad I got it from the lib...
