How to Keep House While Drowning

This book was just O.K.

I think that there are some good tidbits within here that can help people to clean and organize in a new way. However, with that said, this book goes out of its way to be “accessible”. I understand that this is in line with the premise of a “gentle approach”, it makes it hard to stay interested in the book, especially as an audiobook.

I also think this book is laid out somewhat weirdly. I feel like the 1st part could have been the entire book, because there's a point in which she just goes back more in depth into the specific rooms she has. While this can be useful, a lot of those later chapters include fluff that was already covered in the first part of the book, where she talks over cleaning as a whole. This was why it took me a while to read this book, it was hard for me to turn on just to listen to the same thing again and again as I got closer to the end.

If you're struggling with cleaning because you get overwhelmed, I think this book is great. But I am unsure if you need to read the entire book to get what you need to out of it.
