Book Review of Organize Your Garage . . . . In
No Time by Barry Izsak
Book Review of The One-Minute Organizer Plain &
Simple by Donna Smallin
As it appears on Amazon.com. I am a professional organizer and I
bought Barry's book to help me with a class I was teaching 'Attics,
Basements, and Garages'. I loved the book because it gives you many
different options of what you can use to organize various items in
your garage. It wasn't pushing just one option, but telling you the
different choices you had. I thought the pictures helped
tremendously. I have shared this book with many students and clients
as I go about teaching about and organizing garages. Thanks for the
great book Barry! Order Barry's book at

.Instead, this book is a series of tips and tasks that can be done
quickly and easily. There is no need to read it from start to finish
(though you could). It is written in a straight-forward, easy-to-read
style and I didn't feel like I was being "lectured at" in the least.
Some of the tasks
would take more than one minute, but they really are broken down into
small, easily done projects. . . . .
If I had to recommend only one organizing
book to people like me who hate organizing, this would definitely be the
one!"
As it appears on Amazon.com: I am a
professional organizer that lives in the western suburbs of Chicago. I read
many many books on organization. I think this book rates at the top. I have
read it cover to cover and I absolutely love it. What a wonderful book! I
love the Simple Prayers. It's so nice to read a book that is faith based.
What a refreshing idea. So many of my clients would appreciate this
book and I intend to buy it for them or at least recommend it.
Bravo - great job!
Book Review of Simplify your life by Marcia
Ramsland
This is a book that I highly recommend to all
of my clients who are parents and struggle with the day to day clutter and
chaos that comes with trying to raise kids. Christina has a lot of
very practical ideas that anyone can put into place. The book
stretches the spectrum of organizing rooms, cleaning, finances, meals, and
vacations. Each topic of the book contains ‘key organizing tips’ and
‘quick fix’ sections that are short and to the point. Reading these
two sections would benefit anyone in itself. A wonderful book to use
as a reference with a great index in the back.
