4.0 out of 5 stars Help for the Clutter-Overwhelmed!, 17 Sep 2005
By Professor Donald Mitchell "Jesus Makes Me a P... (Boston) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)      
My name is Don. I'm a Clutter-a-Holic. I come from a long line of Clutter-a-Holics. Can we be saved?

My wife was so thrilled when she saw this book come in the mail that I thought she would jump into my arms with joy.

The only reason that we can see the floor in our house is because my delightful wife is a neat freak . . . and she constantly takes action to contain my piles and clutter.

If I leave town for a few days, many piles will permanently disappear. I can't find anything when I return, but they do disappear.

Rita Emmett uses humor to deal with us Clutter-a-Holics. I assume that she believes that if she can help us laugh at ourselves we'll do something about the clutter. I found that her best jibes describe my relatives, leaving me feeling superior for being so much less of a Clutter-a-Holic than they are. I'm not sure that was her intention.

The book points out the close ties between procrastination, wishful thinking and negligence . . . all of which contribute to clutter.

If you really want to get rid of clutter (without getting rid of your Clutter-a-Holic) this book offers a good plan: Be the Clutter-a-Holic's buddy in erasing clutter.

Although ostensibly aimed at the Clutter-a-Holic, this book is more for the Clutter-a-Holic's co-inhabitants.

I came away from the book feeling like I knew a lot more about how to get rid of clutter (such as replacing my piles with files), but not feeling much more incentive to eliminate clutter than before.

Now if a book can make me want to get rid of clutter, that would be something.

The best method for me is to simply have to move every so often. Every time we move, a lot gets thrown away. If I haven't opened a box since when I moved it, the box gets dumped. I like that system!

Seriously, this is one of the best anti-clutter books I've seen. If you want to get rid of clutter but don't know how, Ms. Emmett is your author.
