Critics Review
I loved this book! As well as being an interesting insight into the time, effort, thought and emotions we all put into our things, Helen ends each chapter with questions that really get you thinking (in a good way) about your relationship with your possessions. It helps you recognise what things you truly need and want in your life. – Gill Hasson, author of DECLUTTER YOUR LIFE
