This book made me really reconsider my relationship with the material world and how it affects me mentally. It raised my awareness of how we should be treating the objects that bring us joy in our life, and also how to cherish and say…

Actually changed my life.
After the show came out, I actually did the big purge of my stuff, but I hadn't read the book until yesterday. I'm not kidding when I say going through the KonMari process changed my life- I have always been…

I read this after watching her Netflix series, so I feel like the ideas she presented in this book were a lot easier to absorb and "get", for lack of better words. Used this to help clean through and organize my room, which hasn't been…

For those who feel deeply on a spiritual, this book was made for you. Of course everyone has their own different downsizing methods, but you can learn a little from each way. A good choice for those who are just starting their minimalism…

I wouldn't call this book bad because I did get some things out of it, like a new way of folding clothes and a method for starting the downsizing (clothes, books, etc). However a lot of this book is pure ridiculousness. I can't imagine…

Found some great tips and tricks for de-cluttering; the sort-by-category method, rather than room was a novel concept for me and I think it will be quite effective.
I appreciate her deeper, mindful handling of "things"/possessions and our…
When I first read this title I wasn't that versed in the art of Japanese home organization. I feel this book really helps readers lay a foundation for basic organizing, categorizing and does so in a way that is not meticulous or overly…
I'm surprised how many negative comments here. I'm indeed started to declutter after the inspiration gained format he book. Not only for living only, it helps my mental struggles as well. I am grateful that I didn't give up because other…

Fabulous content. Not sure the writing is all that wonderful but my husband, teen daughter and I have already made our way through clothing and books, on to paper. Easy to follow, wonderfully mindful and thoughtful. I've recommended this…

This is a very fast read, but it is probably one of the top five books that has actually changed my life due to changing my behavior because of reading it. Being grateful for items before giving them away has helped me release things I…
Folding illustrations were helpful, but not everything that is useful Sparks Joy. Not going to check in with my socks. Appreciated her gift for tidying, not really applicable for me.
