A really interesting look at getting rid of things. Lots of tips and methods for deciding what to keep. A simple easy read. Though I disagree about the book parts. You can never have too many. 4*

Clutter: A Tidy History | Jennifer Howard

Pickpick

Well researched and I learned a lot from the Victorian Era about the luxury side of numerous objects and the history of imported trinkets at vacation destinations- way before I ever would have ever considered possible. Many other clutter/decluttering authors I've also already read included as well.

It was a slow reading month for me, which seems to be typical for March for some reason. I hope April will be a more book month. 📚
For those that watch A&E's Hoarders, the tagged book is by Dr Zasio, one of the therapists on that show, which I found really interesting. She's my favorite therapist on Hoarders.

An interesting look at tackling clutter and chaos in life. I loved the toothbrush theory as it makes so much sense. Really useful and gives you actual exercises to help get started. 4*

My #DoubleSpin for February was nice to read, but there were no mindset-shifting insights like I heard so many other readers have had. I did notice that there is another book with the same title but by Margaret Smith, and even the covers look similar so I wonder if I read the wrong book and everyone in the Minimalism community was raving about the other one? At least it's #OffMyShelf.

I will admit that I‘m not the person who this book is meant for as I‘m generally pretty good at keeping my house neat. That being said, I agree with her advice to start small like doing the dishes every day. I find her decluttering advice is more helpful so I like her other book just focused on that better. She does also get repetitive at times, which happens when you convert a blog to a book. Bonus pic is my boy Happy just loving the sun ☀️

An interesting look at decluttering. This takes a different approach to many other books of similar style and yet it's a method that could work. I liked the simplicity of it and can see myself using some of the tips featured in it especially the dishes as seen by my clear worktop. 3*

DogMomIrene She definitely keeps cleaning in good perspective. I‘m a perfectionist so shifting from the desire to have the perfectly cleaned home like it‘s a one and done kind of task to the more realistic view that cleaning is an ongoing task, everyday, was really helpful for me. 3mo
kezzlou85 @DogMomIrene she does we've just moved to a bigger house and it can feel overwhelming at times but this book helped put it back in perspective for me. 3mo
DogMomIrene @kezzlou85 If you want a refresh on her big ideas in another 6 months or year, check out . There‘s much less explanation of her ideas so it‘s less repetitive. It cuts to the point. 3mo
kezzlou85 @DogMomIrene thank you so much. I will check that out. 3mo

A thought provoking gentle look at the art of death cleaning. It's a clever idea and would benefit family members after a death. It's full of tips that could relate to any age group and has made me think more about what I have.

I found this book delightful and informative and I‘ll put what she said in good use in the near future. Will try not to accumulate too much stuff (already failed with books and clothes)…
