I didn't agree with everything, but I think the general principles are worth considering. Wouldn't advise to take it as far as she does, especially when it comes to creating gigantic amounts of waste, which is neither environmentally friendly nor class conscious. Also can't condone the weird sexist comments which, while minor in the grand scheme of things and few and far between, really play into negative gender stereotypes.
Ultimately, take her perspective with a grain of salt.

I've been meaning to tidy my room, and I wanted to check out anything Marie Kondo had to offer. I found her method simple and straightforward, and I can't wait to try it out on my bedroom.
The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is because some of the assertions made seemed a bit far-fetched, and sometimes the writing seemed a bit too ad-like in its "this will absolutely work!" messaging. It wasn't inherently bad, assuming that's how other self-help books are (I dunno, I don't really read them), but it just didn't jive with me.
I'm still really happy to get started on my bedroom, though 😌
