I’m starting a new feature on ye olde blog and I hope that you’ll enjoy it too! One of my goals this year is to read more and I need a bit of motivation. That’s why I’m starting a book club. Each month I’ll announce the book that we are going to read. (I’ll also take suggestions!) And then I’ll read it (I hope you will too) and we’ll discuss it. Easy enough?
Since this is “A Small Life” Book Club I’m thinking the books will center around minimalism, living small and life-changing adventures! The first book we’ll be reading is The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing* by Marie Kondo. You can check it out from your local library or purchase it on Amazon using the link above.
I’ve heard great things about this book. In fact, people are starting to use the author’s last name as a verb to mean tidying up. Too bad my last name is hard to pronounce or I’d totally try to make that into a thing meaning “small living.” We’ll discuss this book on April 1st. I hope you’ll join me!
love,
melanie

I’ve been on the Wake County Library wait list for this book for probably 2 months now. There’s still 39 people left in front of me. I love this idea though! Can’t wait to join along.
You gotta get the e-book from the library! Instant access.
I just read that! We have a long hold-list at our library too. I work at the library and a copy came in the donation bin so I snagged it for a quick read. She is very unconventional when it comes to tidying and approaching your items as almost living things (you thank them for their service when they’re no longer needed). It’s inspiring to think about having only the things you love in your home. Hope you like it!
I can’t wait to discuss!
