Cut the Clutter and Stow the Stuff: The Q. U. I. C. K. Way to Bring Lasting Order to Household Chaos Review: Learn how your personality affects they way you accumulate clutter - I checked this book out at the library, and then, contradictory to what it said I should do - I ordered it and brought a new item into my home! However, I did send quite a few books packing in exchange, so I guess it all worked out. I feel like the way Baird addressed the psychology of clutter was very insightful. It was very interesting to read an explanation of why my daughter and I, or my husband and I, look at the same items in very different ways and cannot comprehend why the other would feel the need to keep it. Those asides have helped us get through some big stumbling blocks in the decluttering of our home (though it is still a very active process). Review: A delightful, helpful book - After reading the widely disparate reviews, I got a copy from the library. I found the book to be delightful and helpful, and I have ordered a copy to own. I lead a complex life, producing beautiful, organized work but leaving debris around me as drafts, printouts, and other papers accumulate. The author is very understanding of the thought processes and problems of Accumulators and Paper Pilers. Her humor makes the task of organizing and disposing less of a chore. As a person with some ADD difficulties, often overwhelmed by distractions, I find her methods of working on little parts of a problem a big help.

Clutter book review
My order was taken and handled properly and with excellent efficiency. Sending notices on when you got my order or when you were sending it, is always a help. I appreciate you fulfilling all of the requirements that come from a book order. The one comment I would like to make may not be anyone's "fault"...I just noticed it. When I took the book out of the shipping container, the outer sleeves of the book would curl outward. Maybe it was the weather the book endured through the traveling process. There is nothing wrong with the book in any way, so there is nothing about it that causes me to be unhappy. Thank you. I would consider ordering from you again, if the opportunity to do so arose again.

I now know why my house is the way it is!!
This book helps explain so many different things it is hard to begin! I have long wondered why I can't seem to get things "caught up." This book will explain it! It helps you identify what kind of person you are in regards to clutter! I was surprised to see which category I was in.. but it made perfect sense once I read thru and saw how it all came together! Then it goes on to show you how you can have the ability to change the way you do things! This is a REALLY good book on clutter. By far the best in the category! I really think it is a life changer!

Cut the Clutter Book
Good book. Lots of helpful information for classifying, organizing and eliminating or storing EVERYTHING in your house. Start at the beginning and read the type of person you are when it comes to building up clutter, and you will get a better understanding of why you have so much stuff and how to prevent future clutter build-up.

This book contains a very interesting quiz to discover your clutter type. There is a lot of reading in this book, but it is jammed packed with ideas and useful tips. Its a process, but am feeling confident this book will help me become uncluttered and tidy
