I Love this Book!!!

After reading just one chapter of Clutter, Chaos & the Cure, I grabbed a couple of garbage bags and cleared out about 5 years-worth of toys that my daughter had grown out of. I knew I had to do it sometime, but Rosemary's book gave me the incentive that I needed, and boy, do I FEEL GREAT!!! I had been the epitome of the procrastinator, but when I saw the results of taking this information to heart, never will I let things pile up again. This is a revolutionary set of strategies that will help even the most hopeless of pack-rats transform their homes and in turn, inner lives. What's on the inside is truly a reflection of what's on the outside, so get this book and start clearing out space so you can begin a new chapter of your life and you will be amazed to experience a plethora of personal growth. Thanks for a fabulous offering - way to go, Rosemary!!!

Everyone knows of that one female relative who is the walking definition of the term packrat - closets and basements full of useless items, and whenever they need something useful they can't find it.

A Guy's Opinion

My wife bought this book. I found it lying around the house and picked it up. A real eye opener. The book is witty,useful and to the point. I do a lot of reading in Zen and in a funny, down to earth way it touches on some of the themes of holistic living. A worthwhile read.

Organizing made easy!

As a chronic pack rat and the owner of three other books on organizing, totaling 697 pages, I was delighted to come across this handy little volume. In a mere 88 pages, CLUTTER, CHAOS AND THE CURE cuts right to the chase, telling you all you need to know to make getting organized easy, fun and so rewarding. The author has a great sense of humor, understands the psychology of clutterers, and offers a multitude of valuable, easy to follow hints. Her top five organizing tips, on one and a half pages, are worth buying the book for! I refer back to them constantly. Even the illustrations amuse. Highly recommended!

RX for the disorganized

This book taught me a lot. Two of the most useful chapters were "Clutter for a Cause," which advises the reader where to donate just about anything, and "It's Baaack!", which addresses relapses. And everyone will recognize themselves in the chapter called "Sound Familiar." All in all, an easy to read and fun book that supplies a spoonful of sugar to make the organizing medicine go down.
