A review by himpersonal
The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning: How to Free Yourself and Your Family From a Lifetime of Clutter by Margareta Magnusson

emotional funny informative reflective sad fast-paced

3.5

This was a very sweet and pragmatic book. There were even a few times when I literally laughed out loud. It was short, easy to read, and generally easy to like. I loved that an octogenarian wrote this book with the intention of helping others help others. My only issue with it is that I know myself very well and know that the tips she makes are wasted on me. I am far too sentimental to give away anything or throw anything out with that kind of economy. Even when it might take her a few years, it would probably take me a few decades. But for the Type A personality, this book would probably feed your soul.
