3 Inspiring Lessons I Learned About Cleaning, Organizing, and Maintaining My Home from Marie Kondo's Accessible New Book, 'Letter from Japan'

After reading Marie Kondo's The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up earlier this year, I couldn't wait to read and review her brand new book – A Letter from Japan.

Much like her previous books, it's filled with her characteristic expert advice, and I can vouch for the fact that it's just as inspiring as the others I've read. After all, if these guiding principles are good enough for Marie, they're certainly ideas I want to emulate in my own space.
