    Carole888: It is the companion read to the Kondo's other and both go together well. An interesting and refreshing read!

Several people recommended this book. I waited three months for it from the library. I read it, and it was very inspiring. So I started to tidy the magical way. The author says the readers won't miss what is discarded- this isn't so. I took Millie of my mother's things I'd held on to for a decade to Goodwill. Now that the holidays are here I find I miss using her things. I can say there was joy at the time of purging, but now there is regret. ( )

Satisfying to read? Hell yeah. Have I actually Kondoed anything? Still no. ( )

Again, a non-fiction book that can be summarized in a few sentences. ( )

“If we acknowledge our attachment to the past and our fears for the future by honestly looking at our possessions, we will be able to see what is really important to us.” —M. Kondo, p 184

While it takes her awhile to reveal this benefit of tidying, it fully removes the distraction that tidying might have just been the false god of an OCD perfectionist. She’s much more wise than that.

She is utterly charming and respectful in her insight about why we clutter our lives up with stuff, alluding to more than just physical stuff (p. 200).

She says finally, “tidy up quickly” because it removes that which distracts us and is not the purpose of life.

Once you put your ‘house’ in order, she posits, you can “pour your time and your passion into what brings you the most joy.” ( )

I do have a sense of humor, so I find the snarky reviews amusing, but I also find them a bit sad, because it seems like so many people can't get outside their own box to try something new.

There are some things that come across as a little strange, because of cultural differences, but you should expect that when you pick up a book written by someone from a different culture. Rather than making fun of the differences, stop for a second and see if you can learn something or possibly even change something in your own life. If not, then ignore it and move on. Otherwise, you just sound foolish, like someone who rents a Die Hard movie then complains that there are too many explosions and not enough romance. Use some common sense.

As for the actual advice, as an aspiring minimalist, I find it very helpful. I'll be buying a copy of the book (probably a digital copy so I don't have to store it) because I borrowed this from the library and I can only keep it for two weeks, one of which I was out of town on vacation. (Yes, I read this while on vacation. I also read three Nora Roberts books, so I'm not completely hopeless.) I could probably just loosely follow the advice without having the book on hand, but I think I'll need some of the reminders, more about the mindset than the practical advice.

I have no clue how to find the "sweet spot" when folding items, and some photos would be helpful. Videos would be even better. I'm going to see if the author has a website, but as I'm American, I have more hanging space than drawer space, so it's not at the top of my priority list.

I've never been the kind of woman who owns several purses and changes them. I have one everyday purse and one small special event purse. So the idea of taking everything out of my purse every night so I don't accidentally leave something behind when I switch purses doesn't work for me. Or even giving my purse a rest. I can understand the concept, but it won't work for me. My purse is my mini-office, and it would take too long to load and unload it every day. But that's an example (two if you count the folding) of how you can acknowledge that some things won't work for you while still realizing that you don't have to ignore the whole book.

Finding the joy in your items isn't that hard, and acting like it is makes you sound either shallow or out of touch with yourself. And I don't mean that in a psychobabble way. Do you know what you really love? If you don't love it, get it out of your house. FlyLady has been teaching that for years now. The difference is that FlyLady teaches that you should declutter a little bit each day/week/month. This book asserts that this method doesn't accomplish anything long term, and you are better off just getting rid of all the extra stuff at once.

Thanking your items for their service and thanking your house for its protection may sound woowoo to us all-knowing Americans, but is there really anything wrong with taking a second out of your day to appreciate your possessions instead of taking them for granted? Not everyone has a house or too many clothes or too many purses or toys or shoes. If stopping to thank your items is what it takes to make you stop and think and appreciate what you have, then what's the problem? Everything has energy (that's not woowoo, that's science) and positive energy is never a bad thing.

Read this book with an open mind and take what you can use and ignore the rest. ( )

The moment you first encounter a particular book is the right time to read it.
...we should be choosing what we want to keep, not what we want to get rid of.
...the best way to choose what to keep and what to throw away is to take each item in one’s hand and ask “Does this spark joy?” If it does, keep it. If not, dispose of it.
I recommend that you always think in terms of category, not place.
Getting rid of other people’s things without permission demonstrates a sad lack of common sense.

Shouldn't be combined with The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up: A Magical Story even though the titles are similar (at least in English). The two books were written several years apart and the manga is a fictionalized lesson on the KonMari Method, told through a story that doesn't appear in this book.
