4 stars (Makes Organization seem possible for even the messiest people!) - Excellent book with great tips, tricks, and encouragement for getting your life organized to be functional and to suit your needs. This book is lively and interesting as it tackles organizational problems, offering anecdotes and sympathy that ease the process. This book makes organization seem possible for even the messiest people! 5 stars (Great book) - Great guideline for someone who has never been organized or wouldn't know where to begin. Covers many areas (household, home office, office). Even suggests some tools. I loved it and reccommend it to everyone I know! 3 stars (worth buying) - the first few chapters get to the heart of the problem and solve what the emotional barriers are for us not staying organized. those chapters were great! i also like the way she addresses the actual act of organizing. she encourages you to organize with your natural instinct/personality and that there isn't one set system for everyone. she also gives excellent tips on various ways to organize items. but again w/an emphasis on only using those techniques if they actually work for you. her time lines for how long it will take total to organize an area are realistic. however, her idea is to spend several hours all at one time to get a room organized. we have all done that before. it doesn't work. if it did we wouldn't be considering buying yet another organization book. she also almost encourages people to keep their clutter. there are good lists of what she calls "no brainer" things to toss out. but they are just that- "no brainers." a good accompanying book to get would be "sink reflections" by marla cilley. while morgenstern encourages us to waste an entire weekend and most of our free evenings just to get one room organized and she helps you save things you know you won't use but just can't get rid of. cilley encourages us to spend just 15 min to one hour and certainly not your valuable family time ...

5 stars (real time savers) - Valuable hints and tricks for the novice as well as the veteran. 5 stars (Haley's Hints) - I was very well pleased with this book but was disappointed in not receiving the Natural Cures, They Don't Want You to Know About. It is the 16 of September and I still have not received it even tho it has been charged to my credit card. 4 stars (Haley's Hints) - Very informative and gives cleaning instructions that probably wouldn't be found in many places. ...

5 stars (Sink Reflections Reinforces the Website) - I am a big FlyLady fan and I subscribe to the website. I find the website really motivates me because of all those daily e-mails. The book is handy when you don't have time to get on the web and also if you like things in printed form like I do. Those emails can be overwhelming sometimes and that's when I turn to the book. The system is fabulous--baby steps towards getting your home and your life organized. The book is a condensed version of the website. You can really get all you need from the site, so if you are an avid internet user, you really don't need the book. I like it anyway. 5 stars (FlyLady Gave Me a PEACEFUL Home!) - I suppose I don't fall into the sterotypical FlyBaby category. My husband & I don't have any children. I spend most of my week in the office, shuttling from one meeting to the next. I am not a stay at home wife or mother. Yet, although FlyLady's tips and routines may seem obvious to some, they weren't obvious to ME. I am not depressed. I am a very confident, intellegent, successful professional. But when it came to my home, it was totally out of control. And I kept falling into the trap of thinking that the CHAOS of our home must be due to some complex, time management problem. I've never been much of a pack-rat, neither has my husband. So, the amount of clutter in our home was minimal (though there was SOME...especially in our attic, laundry room and garage). Our problem has always been trying to find a way to keep up w/ the daily chores of life. My husband & I both spend our mornings & evenings fighting grid-lock traffic in the city. We spend the majority of day running from meeting to meeting in our respective careers. We get home at night, exhausted most of the time. Nobody wants to cook. Nobody wants to clean. Nobody wants to pick up and put stuff away, or throw out the stuff we don't need. Then the weekend rolls around & we're playing "catch up." No time for us or our ma...

5 stars (Domestic Goddess of Domestic Tranquility) - Thoroughly up-to-date, this handbook of household management addresses all the issues of keeping the modern house, including the "why" of keeping house. We keep house because there is a basic need to be clean and well-ordered in our homes. Our health and safety depend on knowing how to keep the foodstuffs safe, how to clean our living areas, and how to help keep our homes safe from outsiders. There is also great mental comfort in doing these tasks. The role of Goddess of Domestic Tranquility is a worthy one, and one might as well be a well-informed GDT. The topics are well-researched and the advice on how to keep one's goods in good condition is superior. Besides the material condition of the house, the paperwork condition is also addressed, with thorough explanations of the hows and whys of various insurances, contracts, and employing others to assist in household maintenance. I keep this book where I can reach it easily as it gets as much use as my Yellow Pages and favorite cook book. 5 stars (From 'cleaning' to 'housekeeping'.) - I'm a messy person. My mother would tell you this. My mother is, like her mother, an obsessive-compulsive cleaner, but not especially organized. I rebelled against the cleaning, which left me with nothing. No, this book isn't a miracle worker. It didn't magically turn me into Martha Stewart. However, I'm not atypical. I was born in 1981. My mother never taught me how to make hospital corners and make up the bed so that I was comfortable, fold clothing so that it actually fit well in the drawers, how to do laundry other than 'wash light stuff and dark stuff separate' and her idea of the hardiness of leftover food is still very optimistic. Home Comforts can't replace learning from a loved family member. For the many of us who didn't have that option, it's invaluable. It's not just the how, but the why; not just about being immaculate but about being comfortable at home....
