Book 1/n of my self-help book clean up; Self help books are everywhere, and every so often I see one and can't help but think: “Maybe there's actually some good advice in there?” So I'll try to get through as many as quickly as I can.

Review:

Thankfully, I don't have nearly as many barriers to functioning as some others among the target audience of this book. So, much of the advice geared towards compassionate self-talk wasn't super relevant for me specifically. But I'm still a sucker for a good, practical and honest housekeeping tip that acknowledges your limitations and instead of fighting them accepts them and basically turns that into a judo move for dealing with your chores–and there are some good ones like that in here!

So for me, specifically, it was a 3/5 read. But for everyone struggling with keeping house from an emotional standpoint, I think this is a 5/5 starting point for decreasing that load. So 4/5 overall.
