Often the main obstacle to cleaning and organizing the home is not knowing where to start. This book not only offers a suggestion as to where to start, but it gives a 31-day plan that will help you finish. Many of the days offer only general suggestions, so people who need more detailed information on cleaning and organizing will need to look into other books to supplement this one. I will say, though, that many of the "Tips of the Day" that are distributed throughout the book are very helpful, and I have yet to see some of them anywhere else. As is the case with many of the books I've read on cleaning and organizing, the book could use more careful editing.
