My drawers will never look the same as long as I live. After reading this book I just had to try out the suggestions laid out by Marie, even though I did not believe her promises. I am young, living in an apartment with my husband, and have very few possessions...how on earth could I dramatically increase the space I have in my closets? But now I no longer need to place my seasonal clothing in storage, because I have so much room in my closets now!
The book is laid out a bit messily (ironically) with her suggestions disorganized throughout the book, so do wait to finish the book before you begin your tidying process. Also, I feel that if her suggestions were better categorized, she could cut down on the size of the book as well, because she repeats her ideas at times. Some of her suggestions were just not something I could do, (ex: speaking to my clothes, etc. and thanking them for their support of my lifestyle.). However, I understand her point of view and even if you don't take her literally, you can adopt her main point which is to treat your things respectfully so that they last long.
Despite these flaws, I highly suggest reading this book and partaking in the process of refining and organizing your belongings. The most important things I gleaned from this book are how to choose my belongings carefully and how to fold my clothes so amazingly that my once full closets now echo. I recommend it!
