About this ebook
Made for those who find themselves drowning in clutter, The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo is a must have. What makes this book special is that it delivers a whole new approach called the KonMari method when decluttering, arranging and storing items at home.
Author, Marie Kondo, is a Japanese cleaning expert that takes organizing and tidying seriously. Unlike regular cleaning books where it's recommended to tackle clutter on a room-by-room basis, Kondo's self-developed and self-dubbed KonMari method deals with clutter using a category scheme.
And it's effective according to the author, as so far, none of her clients have relapsed. The power of her method also speaks volumes as currently she's on a 3-month wait list.
Guiding readers all the way, the KonMari Method helps tidiers find items that "spark joy" in their lives. These "joy-sparking" items are to be kept while the rest are let go.
An international bestseller, this book will help readers clear all of the clutter they have. It can even help them find magic and most importantly, peace of mind in having a tidy home.

Reviews for Marie Kondo's The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up
25 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I learned nothing from this summary, no tips at all on how to clean and organize things at home.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The actual book is amazing. But this summary is just horrific. Sounds like a 12-year old wrote this.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The author gave a great synopsis of the book, which really helped me with wanting to move forward with reading the entire book as I’m trying the method tomorrow. I think knowing the highlights made the thoughts of being overwhelmed with having to get through the whole thing helped immensely. I’m now excited to read and try the steps tomorrow.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Learn few tips from this books, I think it’s effective.Thanks!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Not sure if the summary was a good, very concise rendition of the book or that the book was sparse in its content. The KonMari method sounds very doable and successful.
