### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Marie Kondo's primary inspiration
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2017*

This is the book that influenced Marie Kondo but was only recently (2017) translated. It offers much of the same advice as Kondo but the writing is a little more straight forward, less conversational. Its a quick, enjoyable read. The author is a woman so, as a female reader, I can relate to her practicality and organization. In Part 3 titled "how to feel better about getting rid of things," she considers recycling and environmental issues that Kondo doesn't discuss. This is a great companion piece to Kondo's charming and inspiring books. Both authors explain some Japanese concepts (e.g. mottainai, mono no aware) that can give western readers a new perspective on consuming and discarding.

    Super clever & convenient at a great price!
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2018*

This is such a simple, smart, well-designed little solar light.  The stand/rack/hanger is brilliant even though it is so simplistic.  It is easy to adjust the angle for efficient charging or to direct the light where you need it.  You can use it as a stand to place it on any flat surface.  You can hang it from a nail on the wall in the "V" of the stand.  You can hook it over a clothesline.  In any of these positions, it is easy to adjust the angle.We had it stored in a shed for a year, and when we got back to our campsite and pulled it out and turned it on, it shone brightly -- it held its charge beautifully.  It recharges quickly.  I just love it!The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because of its one weakness... it is designed for indoor use.  We were camping during the rainy season (brief, unpredictable rain showers).  We did accidentally leave it out charging when we left one sunny afternoon, but rain moved in and the light got wet.  The switch jammed.  We were able to open it up and un-jam it, but given the application it would be nice if it were more robustly designed for the weather.Still, I am buying a few more of these, if they are still available -- overall, I am very happy with it!

    I enjoyed Nagisa Tatsumi's the best
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2017*

I've read both of Marie Kondo's books and Sasaki Fumio's 'Goodbye, Things' and out of the three, I enjoyed Nagisa Tatsumi's the best. Those who read it today might find it a bit outdated because it was originally written in the 2000s. If you've read any of the other "minimalist" books, you probably don't need to read another, but if you're deciding between which of the three Japanese minimalist authors to read, I can suggest why you should pick this once since all of them are intended towards different readers. They all more-or-less give similar tips.Tatsumi's book has a sense of humor. One of my favorite lines comes from chapter three  where she open "Little girls dream that some day a prince will come along - but that day is never likely to arrive. And before she knows it, the little girl is a middle-aged woman.." (the chapter is about how "sometime" never comes). I enjoyed her humor though I'm sure some probably don't.But another thing helpful about this book is she lists out different organizing situations and then how to solve the problem. They're all quite fun and humorous, too, but if you're not aware of Japanese culture, some of the situations pointed out might not be that clear and some of the examples are dated because it was written in the 2000s.Overall, it's a fun read about how you can declutter, but while there may be a tip or two that's new, if you've read other minimizing books, you probably won't find this book helpful. If you want another take on how to minimize or haven't read any, this book is a good start if you keep in mind when it was written and that the intended audience was likely Japanese housewives or Japanese OLs (office ladies).
