Not exactly groundbreaking - I would describe more as a guide than anything else. I liked the overall concept of it and I find myself drawn to it at the beginning of every month just to make sure I'm making life a bit easier for myself.

This book is not for me. The reason I picked it up from the shelf at the library is because I thought that breaking things down into months/weeks would be helpful.

I did not find it helpful.

Did we really need to have November dedicated to Thanksgiving and December for Christmas? Surely the two could have been combined.

I found I ended up skim reading parts that did not apply to me - or were totally ridiculous like the travel folders and her travel checklist for packing "light".

Her "inspirations" for presents suggest to husbands that you can't get wives useful products such as vacuums as they will leave the room in tears. And useful products are not for kids and teens - only your staff. The dietary advice in this book regarding what to bring into your house around christmas/new years lest you put on five pounds is totally unnecessary in a book about organisation.
