Review: Great for beginners, well-written, but nothing new for those who've read a lot on decluttering and organization

I've read a lot on decluttering and organization. I didn't learn anything new from this book (although I highlighted lots of quotes). If you've read a fair amount or a lot on this topic I wouldn't recommend this book for new ideas.So why do I give it 4 stars?- I think this book would be great for beginners. I can especially imagine it would be helpful for young adults or couples who haven't lived on their own for a while or are new to living with a spouse (and therefore may need to find a system that works for the two of you to reduce arguments with household issues). Stick to this plan and gain or establish control over clutter.- The book is well-written and without the cutesy and/or annoying style of some books on this topic. If you are the type that wants just the facts without lots of personal stories thrown in by the author or the author taking on a catchy persona, this book is for you.- I appreciate the author's approach not just scrutinize possessions, but to also have basic tips on personal health (eating breakfast, fiber intake, etc) and earth friendly living as part of being organized.I received this book for free in exchange for my unbiased review.
