Re: Secrets you're too lazy to make

The poor woman seems to be getting plenty of goddamn heat for making an other wise innocuous-looking cleaning show. You'd think she'd told people to burn their pets from the way I've seen people reacting.

Right? Damn ya'll. Some things listed like the comments above make sense that adjustments need to be made but my god.

I don't watch her show but a couple of friends of mine really flipped out over her saying you should only have 50 books or however many it was. I don't think it's great advice either, at least not for most people, but all you have to do is... not listen to her.

Actually, the number in question was 30, and Kondo had to clarify that that was a ballpark figure.

Honestly, as someone who LOVES books, I don't think it's bad advice at all. It's so overwhelmingly easy to keep things 'just because'. I recently went through mine and donated about 200 books to Value Village because I'd read them and knew I would never read them again and wanted someone else to have the chance to read them. She's ballparking that figure because let's be realistic, most people (in general, I think FS is skewed towards those who probably do) don't buy a lot of books, nor do they reread them, so it makes sense to pare that down to those books that have sentimental/emotional value, or ones you reread on a regular basis.

But you're right, if one disagrees with her philosophy, it's pretty fucking easy to just... not follow it.
