It was really good, informative and intetesting, full of examples and I enjoyed it very much. Plus, it inspired me to declutter my bathroom again. Five stars. ( )

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I know that my family has problems with hanging on to stuff, but after reading this book, I realized I had areas that needed improving. I would read a good tip, bookmark the page, and go do what the page suggested. It really is a great how-to guide to get your life back in order. It made me realize that tons of pictures left behind are not going to mean much to my children, nor are all their little treasures saved from childhood. I would rather see items now go to a good home or a good charity versus letting them rot and go out of style. This book really makes you think, even if you are already fairly organized. Great job!

This is another great book by Peter Walsh. It was written to appeal to teens, and is easy to read, but honestly, any adult could also learn from this book. I liked the way it tackled internal and external clutter. This is a book best read slowly, so you can "fix" the areas in your life that need repair. ( )

Inspirational...and can be taken in small doses! I loved Peter's show, Clean Sweep, and his book does a great job of discussing and instructing on how to manage clutter...at one's own pace! Great job. ( )

This cheery self-help book purports to be about clearing "clutter," but it seems to me it's more about learning to resist the imperatives of a consumer culture and to face the implications of the impulse to hoard. Nothing brilliant, but a nice read during New Years resolution season. (This is the review I posted on Amazon) ( )
