If you are expecting steps to declutter or minimize this is not your book. For me somewhere between 60 and 100 ( author is between 80 and 100) this helps me find a way to let go of stuff and not buy more. One phrase resonates go look at stuff doesn’t mean you have to buy it. I’ll start now giving away stuff to visitors ( if they want- we gave airline first class amenities bags to our last visitors we still have at least a dozen!) hopefully in 5-10 years when we downsize our home it will be less of a chore. Book is a good quick read not morbid, look around your home do you really want someone else to decide what to do with all your stuff?

She is a wise and practical person, even on my thirties I am doing my own death cleaning and loving it. It’s been also a nice way to chat to my parents about it

I loved this book. The principles of her method are mingled with stories in a loving way that helps break some of the psychological barriers some of us have to the whole clearing/ cleaning out process. I’ll share this with several people who, like me are struggling with this task.

This book was a collection or of the ladies life. It in no way gave me any advice of how to clean out my belongings or as the doctors put it "put my affairs in order" feel like I wasted my money.

A good read, but nothing I didn’t already know.
