I loved this book. Traccy Mccubbin goes behind the clutter to find the why. Why do you keep the things you do? Are you attached sentimentally? Are you attached by guilt? Are you holding onto someone else's stuff? So much mental house/head cleaning can be found here that it is like walking through a door to see the reality of what is keeping you committed to your "stuff" and then Mccubbin helps the reader reason out letting things go, fighting the fear of what if you need it later but its gone? What if Aunt Agnes comes over looking for that gravy boat she gave you years ago? What if your sister insists you give her whatever memento of your mother's that you got but never liked when Mama passed but that you donated to Goodwill? Yikes! Tracy Mccubbin is like your new best friend patting your hand and walking with you through your stored but no longer necessarily wanted accrual of things and helps you reason out whether you are holding on cause you love it or holding on cause you have had it so long you no longer see it, but, everybody else does. A great book with lots of wise cut through the lies you've been telling yourself wisdom that will serve the reader the rest of their lives. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to do away with the excess in their lives and living space, whatever your age.
