I loved this book because of its simplicity and clarity

I also ordered other similar books (more dense and more expensive), but found them to be demotivating because of the effort required. I read a couple of chapters from "Eliminatig Chaos" in an hour, and immediately it clicked in my mind. The next day I spent organizing the kids' room and the home office (after a trip to Ikea). There are plenty of pictures to illustrate the ideas.
Don't pass this by !!

Very practical ideas to organize every room in your home. The before and after pictures were ideal. The author also addresses the need to have so much "stuff" and how to conquer it. An inspiring book!
great steps on the reality of how to get organized

This is a great book, one of the better ones that outlines the CONCISE steps of organizing each part of the house. Because the book is short,you don't get bored. The STEPS she explain are critical because you'll see that most of your time should be spent weeding out things, figuring out what belongs in the room, and little time is spent BUYING organizational tools. Most people just immediately run out to BUY organizational tools thinking that'll do the magic, but this book really shows you that this is the last step, not the first. Also, her stories about her clients are fun to read. Now, when I watch talk shows on 'closet makeovers', I laugh when I see them look at someone's closet and immediately install a customized system BEFORE they do the weeding out and counting of items!!! What's the point of customizing before you know what you really will be keeping? I wish there were MORE before and after photos. The photos in the book were tiny and hard to see, and very few. I also wish she would show pics of more org. tools.
One of the best organizing books around

I'm famous for my clutter and every so often I pick up a book on organizing...and give up, frustrated. Leist's book is different because she offers totally practical solutions that even organizing-challenged people like me can appreciate. She foregoes the simplistic solutions in favor of getting into the big reasons why we have so much clutter. Inspired by this book, I've actually taken a few steps already: I keepp noticing things I'll probably never use again and I've put together a collection for donation. Highly recommended.
Very helpful book for the terminally cluttered!

Great book! Outlines in ample detail the process of de-cluttering various types of rooms in the house. Most important--get rid of stuff before you put more stuff away!
