A quick read. Huge decluttering projects are broken down into smaller steps. One thing I really liked about this book was that the author is a fan of the black trash bags. If you don't use it, get rid of it. What's left, organize. The downside of the book is that it's one long commercial for the Container Store.
I picked up this book to get some ideas on how to pare down before moving into my first home. The most useful aspect of this guide is that it breaks down what can feel like an impossible task into much smaller tasks. Most of it was common sense, yet I did find it useful. I reinforced some things I was already doing, and gave me a few ideas to improve other areas. Nothing earth shattering here, but worth the quick read.
This was a good composium of common sense approaches to getting organized.
The main thing I didn't like was the constant insistence of the need for a notebook in hand whenever a task is tackeled. However I concede that some people have a need to make lists in order to move forward, so mentioning it is good (it could just be repeated less).

A quick read, but not very helpful - everything in it is common sense.
This book was not exceptionally helpful. Most of the ideas were common knowledge, I thought.
