The Home Edit Life: The No-Guilt Guide to Owning What You Want and Organizing Everything by Clea ShearerMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Oh no! It happened again...I got pulled into another home organization porn book! I just couldn't turn away; I had to look at all the glossy photos of people's shoe closets, bathroom storage, refrigerators, party closets, pet supplies and many more. All arranged in matching bins or canisters, all arranged by color. There are a few more organizational tips in this book than there were in the first, but there isn't a whole lot of substance; they rely on the photographs to tell the story. I do like their 80/20 rule: keep your home no more than 80% full and reserve at least 20% for breathing room. However, I simply cannot keep by tea organized by package color. And I certainly don't understand the concept of organizing your phone apps by color!! Perhaps it's the librarian in me, but I tend to organize everything by logical groupings.
Recommended for anyone who wants to look at Instagram photos in a book.
