I like to read anything that tells a good story, duh ;) Genre doesn't really matter much but I tend to read dark fiction and fantasy the most. I skip chick lit and romance novels with a few exceptions for the extraordinary.
My ratings system:
5 stars - ADORED; plan to read over and over and over.
4 stars - ENJOYED; will likely read once or twice more.
3 stars - LIKED; may or may not read again ... someday.
2 stars - MEH; no plans to read again.
1 stars - I didn't enjoy the story and was lucky to finish.
0 stars - I couldn't or wouldn't finish for reasons that may or may not be listed in the review box.
How to Organize (Just About) Everything by Peter Walsh
Rating: 3.5 of 5
How to Organize (Just About) Everything: More Than 500 Step-by-Step Instructions truly covers "just about" every dang thing a person would need to organize. From the common, "37 Conquer Clutter," to the rare, "472 Fight an Ebola Outbreak," I daresay if you want a general overview on how to organize or plan it, the steps are in this ginormous guide.
I found the action plans too broad for my style, but I guess "broad" had to be expected from a book covering such a wide range of activities. Contents were organized into:
* Get Organized
* Life's Nitty Gritty
* Daily Debris
* Heart & Home
* Yard & Garden
* Storage Solutions (I found several nuggets of useful info)
* Education & Career
* Business & Work (I found several nuggets of useful info)
* Financial Plans
* Family Affairs
* Food & Entertaining
* Celebrations & Events
* Community Works (I found several nuggets of useful info)
* Travel & Adventure
* The Unexpected (This is where Terrorist Attacks, Ebola, etc were listed)
* In Your Dreams
And the Index was quite useful.
I'd recommend this book more to the person looking for a quick, all-in-one reference guide for a specific project than the person looking for an in-depth how-to.
