I read this one on the heels of the other "Messie" books I gathered at my local grocery store. It served its purpose of keeping me motivated to organize... for one whole Summer of my life.

Interesting book. However, if you have read any other relationship or interpersonal communication books, there is nothing new to be learned from this book.
