Not the usual
I got a lot of great tips out of this. Ideas a bit different to the standard were presented and I will definitely be changing some of my processes. Everyone will get something out of this book!

I'm going to listen again and again.
This book of strategies for decluttering combines hard truths, honesty and so many laugh out loud moments to keep you engaged. The style keeps you listening. Taking away the initial feel that it might just be a long list. It's like the how-to of decluttering that you can always go back to if you slide too. Love this book!

Quick listen, some really clever tips
I quite enjoyed this book. I really like it when the author narrates, especially if they narrate well! I found Dana to be quite funny and she had some great tips which I have started implementing. I'm going to listen again to make notes of them this time, which is totally doable because it isn't a super long book.

A great summary of her other (amazing!) books
Loved it as a great summary to both her other books (Decluttering at the Speed of Life & Managing Your Home Without Losing Your Mind)… would recommend listening to both (or at least one) of those books to get greater detail / a better understanding of the concepts she summarises so well in this one!
