Jay   Berk I appreciate anyone taking the time to share their thoughts, but I do want to correct a couple of things in this review.

First, *Hoard Today Gone Tomorrow* is a humorous book about tackling clutter in your home and digital life. Its purpose is to help people look at their stuff differently, make decisions, and actually start decluttering without turning the process into something miserable or overwhelming. It was never intended to be a directory of startups, recycling services, resale platforms, or companies that repurpose unwanted items. Those may be useful resources, but criticizing the book for not covering them is really criticizing it for not being a different kind of book altogether.

The statement that digital hoarding “was not addressed at all” is also simply inaccurate. There is an entire chapter devoted specifically to the subject: **Chapter 8: “Digital Decluttering, Just Because It’s Not Physical Doesn’t Mean It’s Not a Mess.”**

Readers are absolutely entitled to dislike the book, disagree with its approach, or wish it covered other topics. But criticism should at least accurately reflect what the book actually contains and what it was written to do.
