5.0 out of 5 stars This book is the starting point. Still the best., August 8, 1998

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Place Called Simplicity: The Quiet Beauty of Simple Living (Paperback)

This is the best book I have read on wooing one into the basic philosophy of simplicity. There is a spiritual place in all of us that needs to be filled, and this book points out the path. I have given this book as a gift more than any other and every time I have received profuse thanks in return.

By A Customer

This review is from: A Place Called Simplicity: The Quiet Beauty of Simple Living (Paperback)

The gentle, and inspiring text has the ability to move one gently toward the desired simplicity of living and without regard to finances. The simple concepts with gentle guidence is a marvel. This is one of my favorite gifts to share with others.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book!, December 22, 1997

Debi (DSimple@aol.com) (Washington State, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Place Called Simplicity: The Quiet Beauty of Simple Living (Paperback)

This is probably the sweetest, most beautiful book I've ever read on the subject of simplifying your life. It's probably helped me more on the path of inner and outer simplicity than anything else I've read. Can I give it a 10+ rating??
