Granted, I read a lot of organizing books, but I didn't really get anything at all out of this one. Ironically, the whole thing felt cluttered to me. It's full of stock photos, but they generally have very little to do with the advice. For instance, she is a big fan of labels and she talks about all the different kinds you can have but the only photos are stock photos of jars with hand drawn chalk labels on them. She lists like 6 different ways you can label things and goes on and on about how much she likes label makers, but there are no photos of the labels she says are best. It's just that sort of thing again and again, like listening to someone ramble on about a subject they love while someone else searches Shutterstock and finds glossy photos to fill up the pages. There is a lot of visual clutter here too -- little happy blurbs with colorful cursive promising tips and stuff like that. But it just felt like a giant run-on sentence of commonsense stuff. I also really like things like lists and plans and big bullet points of important things to remember but this is mostly just talk and talk and talk. It's just rambling with photos of spaces that look like parts of prop houses and too many words for me. I did like the little journal bit at the end if you get the paperback copy but there's not much of it. There are also a couple of pages of bullet journal pages but they're only for kids.
Two stars for me -- it was okay. Perhaps check it out of the library and see if it's a good fit for you.

I have ADHD and work hard at organizing. Before I retired, I got rewards for being the most organized. I like the author's very much but see a need for how to get your family engage in the idea of organizing. I found the author's website and told her my problem about convining a family member to let me throw away stuff.
If you feel very lost because of too much stuff, this is the book for you. We live in an apartment with tiny kitchen and also I want to thin out my wardrobe. Now with those two problems, I look at the Contents, find Kitchen and go to Chapter 10 p. 66. For the wardrobe, I go to Chapter 5, p. 56. It is that simple.

I love the breakdown of the topic areas of this book and the creative way the contents were displayed in the introduction.
The author briefly discussed having good habits as a way to keeping your space organized and ways to help decluttering your space before you start organizing. She also looked at ways to best organize different age categories from very young children to teenagers, and how to get the whole family involved in keeping spaces organized. There’s good discussion on how to declutter and whether or not to use bins in your organizing projects. She also discusses the importance of using labels in keeping things where they should be.
Moving forward in the book, she goes through how to organize certain rooms in the house and the best ways to do this. Throughout the sections, there are pro tips in each of the room areas to help move through the process of sorting, decluttering and organizing. The photos in the book and the colour scheme are beautiful and very pleasing to look at. Besides the room descriptions, the author goes through ways to sort and organize different problem areas that each house would have, for example, paper clutter, holiday decor or special family items. There are work sheets in the back of the book to for families to use to facilitate the entire process.
Overall, this book is a beautiful resource for anybody who loves to organize or anyone who needs to organize. I would definitely recommend Home Sweet Organized Home by Jessica Litman and rate it 4.5 ⭐️

This seems to be more of a minimalist decorating book, I can’t say I got much out of it but I was looking for organizing techniques not decorating.
June 1, 2022
What I was looking for: An effortless clean home – that’s the dream. But for now, I would be happy with some practical and doable ideas and shortcuts to a cleaner home, especially for somebody with a chronic illness.
Structure: The first eight chapters lay the groundwork for decluttering followed by six chapters on certain rooms in the house (bedroom, kitchen, shared spaces, office, bathroom, kid’s rooms), four chapters on special items/topics (toys, paper, holiday and cherished items). Finally, there is a chapter on decorating after decluttering and a chapter on future habit building. At the end, there are 21 worksheets which get references throughout the book.
What I liked: Right at the beginning, an important question is tackled: what means “organised” to you. Especially that you also should focus on the areas you define as organised and tidy and not only what is not. This certainly helps really understanding what you want your organised home to look like. And it also asks why you feel the need to be more organised. When you define your motivation, it is much easier to know where to start and what you actually goal is.
I like that the books also tackles the issue of a multi-person household and how this household should be organised to meet the needs of the person who struggles the most with being organised. That way, you reduce stress and disagreement in a home and everybody will be much more relaxed. You are setting the system up for success. And it is important to let go of some things, not being perfect and especially, trying to accept that other household members have a different concept of organised and maybe not as much of a motivation to get everything perfect than you do.
I liked that there are many examples especially on little things that can be changed to make something work – for a specific person and their idea of organised.
Without children of my own, I cannot try out the actual suggestions for children’s rooms and toys. But the fact alone that this is being discussed and discussed in detail seems very good because too often, the organisational and tidying schemes are set up only for adults and only their needs.
Conclusion: As self-help and organisation books go, this one is certainly one of the better ones since it gives realistic advice catered to your individual needs and resources. Sure, you still have to declutter and keep everything organised, it is not a magic solution. But especially this approach to a multi-person household and people with different levels of organisational energy (here focused on children) is also a good way of managing as a chronically ill person or living with a person with a chronic illness who might struggle with some of the high-maintenance organisational methods.
Even though I thought I knew pretty much all the “basic” organisation systems, there were quite a few new ideas or different ways of thinking in this book.

Good If You Don't Have A Clue How To Organize & Have A Good Sized Home For All Your Stuff
I have a very hard time relating to the author or any of her client examples. Everyone, including the author seems to have large homes (the author even has 4 bathrooms). I happen to be very organized. That is not my problem. My problem is a lack of space. I have one bathroom that is so small I don't even have a bathtub. My washer & dryer are stacked. My well bladder tank, hot water heater, & sink are all crammed into my small bathroom. My kitchen is also a tiny thing with one itty bitty counter top. I have NO closets to speak of. I have one bedroom. My house is like this because it is a historic late 1700's log cabin (think Abe Lincoln).
I am also a full time Eco farmer. I would love to have the abundance of room the author & her clients have. It also seems that many have storage locations outside of the home. I have barns. I can assure you that my barns are no place to store household items unless you don't mind them getting ruined. I have livestock. Wildlife love to enter barns. Plus I have (fixed & friendly) barn cats. Everything of importance that's not farm equipment is crammed into my home. Including all the food I put up that is grown on my farm.
I happen to like reading books on home organization & downsizing where possible. But this... ugh, I just couldn't relate. The author is relaxed & easy going. It's really not her fault, it's her "fancy" (sorry but I'm not sure how else to put it, call my lifestyle "the dirty life" if you like) lifestyle that is at fault.
My favorite book on the topic so far is 'The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Guide to Declutter, Organize, and Simplify' by Francine Jay. However, even that book isn't entirely relatable as I do minimize as much as possible, but I also like to be prepared & I will absolutely have more than one of something. Living in the country, where the closest town is an hour drive one way means you need to have items on hand. Also, a trip to town doesn't necessarily mean you will find what you came to buy so you bet your hard working bottom you're glad you have min. of a 6 month supply of what you use on a regular basis.
The book is nicely done. Easy to read & understand. It is flat out PERFECT for someone who is completely & hopelessly utterly lost at how to organize. If you don't have a clue where to begin or how to begin, this book should really help you out tremendously. For me however, it is filled with nothing but common sense. I think I'm like the author & was practically born organized thanks to a need to create order out of the chaos & trauma that was my childhood.

This is an absolutely amazing book. I mean where has this book been all my life. As many people like me strive to have that show home look house. With this book it might just happen. Well fingers crossed I can do it. This is definitely a life changing book for me. Not only is this book about organising your home. It has amazing advice on parenting aswell. Explaining things like how many toys and expectations on them keeping your house organised. I needed this book 10 years ago. I really think this is the ultimate guide to keeping your house in order and would be brilliant for families or single parents aswell as those who just want that show home organised feel. It has to be the best book I have ever read on the subject. Everything is fully explained and the book is well organised too. I loved how it flowed brilliantly and was so colourful. What I especially loved was the handy worksheets at the back to help determine what is important to you and great check lists. So people who love journaling will love this section too.
Lastly I have to mention how beautiful the pictures were and they really inspired me. I am certainly looking forward to using this fantastic tips to finally organise my own home. I really can't recommend this book enough.
Only the highest of praise goes out to the author and publishers for creating such a magnificent book full of easy to follow tips.

Home Sweet Organised Home isn't just another book telling you to label and box everything in your home, Its much more than that and so .ugh better.
Firstly the author explains that we all have our own idea of what 'organised is and guide you through some exercises to help you figure out YOUR idea of tidy. She then helps you develop small habits to keep everything organised even explains how to get the messiest person to co-operate - it's easier than you think!!!!
There's a chapter on what jibs children can be taught to do at what age range, starting with toddlers! Before going on to guide you through organising room by room. Oh and then there are the worksheets at the end! Phew.
The writing is engaging and fun, interspersed with stories and examples. There are lists and 'top tips' interspersed throughout. The book is colorful and a must have for every home maker out there.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - Rock Point!
Home Sweet Organized Home is a helpful guide to household organization for the whole family. The format is detailed but easy to read. Each chapter includes beneficial lists and pro tips for making the most out of your time.
The one chapter I appreciate the most covers what to do with holiday decor. The is the first organizing book I have come across that dedicates an entire chapter to holiday and specialty decor. I also like that the author includes some useful worksheets at the end of the book that coordinate with the different chapters.
I was unfamiliar with Jessica Litman and her blog, The Organized Mama, before reading this book but I plan to take a look into more of her work in the future.

Home Sweet Organized Home
3 Stars
I found this book too overwhelming. So many words with perfect pictures that are completely unrealistic to maintain in the long term. I feel woefully inadequate after this reading and it isn't a good feeling. This book failed to breakdown organization into bite-size, manageable steps. I'd have loved bullet points, colorful post-notes with important information.
One of my favorite chapters is chapter one. What does being organized mean to you? As for me, I want less clutter and better function in my household. The pro- tips and worksheets were helpful. I primarily focused on bedrooms. There are good suggestions for the kids' room or nurseries. Honestly, nothing new, though. This book seems geared to micro-managing your household & children, which isn't my goal.

Unfortunately, my home is pretty disorganised, so this book is extremely useful. Jessica Litman covers almost everything in this book, which is especially designed for families. Inspiring pictures and helpful introductions to each chapter make it easy to see what will help you, and what you don't need. Her tips are mostly simple, but make life easier. For example, she advises that you take any mess that you've mad to its rightful place, such as taking the remains of snacks away when going from the dining room to the kitchen, and using a timer to declutter untidy spaces.
Litman also provides chapters dedicated to each room. She doesn't cover books very much, however, but apart from that, it's a great book which is full of ways to help readers get organised!

This was a great book with ideas of what you could do to organize your home. Any room in the house with some conscientious ideas of what organized means to you.
What did I like? The book had some great ideas if you have lots of space. Some of the items are completely doable if your willing to declutter your home. I’m maxed on space so I was hoping for more ideas on that. Still the book works on great flow ideas for items and buying bins to help sort items.
Would I recommend or buy? This has great organized information for toddlers to adults. Everyone in the house needs to have there own expectations. Great ideas with bins and space. Four stars.

I'm the kind of person who needs lots of brightly colored pictures of organized spaces in order to get excited about organizing - and that's exactly what this book provides! The layouts are beautiful, essentially magazine style, with lots of little insets that make it easy to digest all the information in pieces. It even has a section on what to do if the people you live with don't have the same "need" for organization as you do, ha. I also appreciated the section on "mental" clutter, which we don't often think of in an organization book but is so important. Okay, I'm off to go by bins and a label maker!

I love reading organisational books
and was pleasantly surprised by the lay out of this book!
I loved the vibrant colours , pro tips and other things she added keeping me engaged and the worksheets at the end are so useful and such a good idea to add.
I’ve only just started reading but can already tell this is going to be a love and I really hope she has more books like this I can read next
I’m looking around my bedroom already eager to get to the bedroom chapter and get started I always like to start with my bedroom before the kids rooms and dreaded kitchen and was happy when she agreed in her book 😂

My house is a disorganized mess! This book taught me very helpful organizing tips. I can already tell a difference in my life just from organizing one closet after reading this book.
I love that the author gives realistic advice on organizing and different suggestions so you can find a way to organize that works for you.
Not everything has to be color coded! Thank you!!! To bin or not to bin!
Reading this book will definitely motivate you to get rid of clutter and change your life! #HomeSweetOrganizedHome #NetGalley

I love the cover of this book. It is very bright colored and great photography as are the rest of the pictures in the book. The book is broken down in to text, tips, and photographs which are appealing vs the all text approach. This is an easy approach to keep yourself, your family, and the most unorganized organized. The end of the book contains worksheets which help tailor goals, thoughts, etc. to you. I enjoyed the book so much I followed the author on social media.

I really liked this book, even if there were things in there that weren’t feasible for my wee house. I particularly liked the pro tips that were dotted about the pages.
I also liked the fact that it acknowledges that being organised means different things to different people, and what works for one person won’t work for everyone, even if it seems like a great way of doing things.
I think I will definitely learn a thing or two that will help me to be more organised .

Thanks NetGalley for the eARC! I loved how family focused some of these organizing tips were. It made me realize that just because something is aesthetically pleasing doesn’t mean it’s necessarily functional for my lifestyle.
Some tips were new and smart, others were predictable but tried and true. Loved the workbook at the back too

Organizing books that don’t deal with overconsumption are useless. There is a picture in this book with a neatly organized shelf of 18 purses. That’s just what is in the frame. Another picture shows 38 pairs of shoes. Want to be more organized? Get rid of 15 of those purses and 30 pairs of the shoes!

There was a very detailed selection of ideas for all different ages and "definitions of organized" but I did find many of the "pro-tips" were pretty basic.

Eh. I though it would have pics of organized spaces, maybe some before and afters with tips and tricks…but it was mostly just basic info with blah pics. The picture on the cover and title is what drew me to the book…and honestly the cover was the best thing about it.

Loved the great worksheets in the back and the room by room organization tips. It also has a very modest human element to it like tips on avoiding being a perfectionist and letting perfect be the enemy of good.
