Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 2, 2013
This is a concise book on organizing the objects and spaces in a home. It can be read in a single sitting and is written in a straightforward, folksy style that feels like listening to a friend offering advice. Getting organized is a process, and doing it is as much a matter of psychology as taking certain actions. A prerequisite is possessing the right state of mind. The author--Rhiana--provides help in both domains. The book consists of twelve short chapters, dealing with such topics as memorabilia, storage rooms, clutter, laundry, kids' spaces, a digital room, holidays, mail, and steps to getting organized. Each chapter includes links to other sources of expert advice. While the book focuses on organizing the home, the practical advice it provides is applicable in other domains as well.
