    About this audiobook

    Looking to change your messy ways? Through prompts and challenges, this guided journal will help you explore your relationship with cleaning: why you hate it, what stands in your way, and how to make small changes that lead to big results down the road.

    Cleaning Sucks will help you define your own measure of success-forget about those unattainable #goals in glossy magazines and TV makeover shows. Everyone deserves a space they love, but that means something different for everyone. When inspiration does strike to get up and declutter, you'll find easy-to-accomplish tasks, ways to track new habits as they're being built, and other real-life tools to help you reach your home goals. And for when you just need a little extra motivation, Cleaning Sucks provides tips, tricks, quotes, and gentle kicks in the pants to get you off your butt and tidying up.

      Decent principles but this is meant to be a workbook so I dont understand why it was maxe into an audiobook. Maybe this would be useful of listened to for 15 minutes a time over a few weeks - - not in 1 or 2 sittings between which you can't apply the principles

      A helpful and direct guide to making small changes for the better in your living environment. The author focuses on structured exercises and small, accomplish-able tasks that give a sense of progress. The checklists alone are worth the price as they can do the work of getting you started on a task you are dreading.Very thoughtful and considerate journal to help you feel empowered and take action.
    • 4/5
      This is a very short listen – it’s a one hour audiobook of a journal with checklists, which makes it a rather unique audiobook.There are helpful steps to encourage you to get started – and then to progress to larger things, hopefully in a way that leaves your weekends free to do the things you love. One of my favorite tips is to take a photo before you begin – and then take one when you are done – even if you’ve only worked on the project for a few minutes. Kitchen table here I come – camera in hand!I really enjoyed the reader, Amy McFadden. I will definitely look for more that she has read.But, overall, this book is a bit short to cover much ground breaking territory and because of the checklists, I believe it would work better in print form than audio.I received a copy of this audiobook through the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program in exchange for n honest review.
