Fun to read. Not for someone who wants an immaculate home. This is for someone like me who is not honest with themselves about time and procrastinates their way out of a clean home. I found it to be super helpful and gave me a mindset change that has already drastically improved my life and home. It helped me to not feel so embarrassed and overwhelmed and instead let me just tackle the house by priority level. It was an easy book to read and the ideas are very easy to implement.

I bought this on a whim when the kindle version was on sale. I ended up really loving it! The author comes across as very down-to-earth, relatable, and funny (but not funny in an annoying way). Reading this book with guidance about how to keep your house basically clean is like a breath of fresh air. She understands and has lived through all the basic and regular challenges that normal moms face as they try to keep their homes clean. It was a fairly quick read too. Great book!

I would have liked this book if she wouldn't have said in her 2nd book that this book would be more about practical tips on how to clean and organize your home. It isn't. It is more of the same. I skipped lots of chapters because I had already read them in her decluttering book.
Her writing style is funny and honest, but repetitive, not to the point and ' Prove it is'nt just me' aka reviews/ confessions from readers of her blog were not why I picked up this book.
I wanted practical tips, not endless monologues and brain washing on why I should declutter blablabla.

High literature? I mean, I guess not. But in terms of humor, encouragement, and actual life-changing-content, this book hit ALL the right notes for me! (If you're naturally very tidy and probably less nostalgia-prone than I am, this book is probably not for you.)
