Books are clutter if they are collected to impress or to make a statement–to another person, at a photo shoot, on a coffee table. Books as tools, for information, for enyoyment, for relaxation, for personal memory are absolutely essential in life.

I just received my copy of this book, I’m really looking forward to diving into it. I’ve been a fan of his blog since early last year.

@Catherine — I don’t think books are clutter if you read them. Books are clutter when they take up permanent residence in your home and are never touched. If you’ve read something and never plan to reference it again, then donate/sell/give it away/recycle the book. However, if you read it and find utility in keeping it (cookbooks, guides, favorites, etc.), then the book isn’t clutter. Clutter is an object that has no use in your home, office, or your life.

I’m sure it’s an excellent book, but I always have to chuckle when you all post a book review, because I’ve pretty much eliminated all the clutter in my life EXCEPT books. Buying another one is never a good idea, heh. I’ll see if they have it in electronic form!

Also Highly recommend anything by Leo. Haven’t received my copy just yet, but I’ve devoured the archives of Zen Habits and have read the ebook companion to The Power of Less…

Make the time to read it!

If you haven’t read Leo’s stuff before – I highly recommend it. While I haven’t read his new book yet, I read his site (Zen Habits) regularly and it’s fantastic!
