I loved Kondo's first book, but this one fell a little flat for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Little, Brown and Company for an advanced copy of this book.

Marie Kondo's enthusiasm for sparking joy is contagious. Her latest effort focuses on joy in the workplace and her advice is easily transferable to other workspaces around one's home. Her method and theory remains the same: it's easier to feel joy when you find the sweet spot of tidiness that works for you and we all benefit from efforts to surround ourselves with things we love.

There's a lot of practical tidying advice as well, which I found helpful. I found the sections on tidying digital clutter to especially helpful. I'd definitely recommend this to a friend looking for new ways to tackle clutter and feel rejuvenated in their life.

Usually a huge Kondo fan, but this one just didn’t hit for me.  Felt more along the lines of toxic positivity-so much in work life is out of people’s control, especially given financial situations, and I don’t feel like the methodologies here were that unique or in depth compared to the usual insights of her work on tidying.
