Review of Living Organized: Proven Steps for a Clutter-Free and Beautiful Home (Paperback)

Being merely an updated version of the Messies Superguide, I was a bit disappointed when I started reading this, since I wasn't aware of that fact before I purchased it.The book is fine, but I already had a copy of the superguide, and so I felt a bit ornery about it.

Nevertheless, the ideas in this book are sound, and have helped me to slowly start organizing my own house.Heavy on theory, and rather light on examples, "Living Organized" spends most of its time reassuring you that no, you're not a horrible person because you can't keep your house clean, and yes, there are solutions to your problems.It does take a rather traditional view towards housework (referring to the "motherly" jobs of keeping "husband and children" organized, etc), but if you're able to take it with a grain of salt, then you should be fine.
