5.0 out of 5 stars Where was this book when I went away to college?, May 23, 2002

This review is from: A Queen for All Seasons: A Year of Tips, Tricks, and Picks for a Cleaner House and a More Organized Life! (Paperback)

OK, I admit I'm not the most organized person. Or the neatest. Or the most on time. You get the idea. I read the first book from the Queen, "Talking Dirty with the Queen of Clean" and I loved it. My mom gave me this new book as a stocking stuffer at Christmas. It is loaded with helpful tips on getting organized and scheduling the right time to do important tasks. I really enjoy the Queen's lighthearted style and plain talk. I ordered the laundry book and now have the complete QoC library. Write on, Linda!

5.0 out of 5 stars A reader and real world person from ohio, June 30, 2004

This review is from: A Queen for All Seasons: A Year of Tips, Tricks, and Picks for a Cleaner House and a More Organized Life! (Paperback)

First to the "snooty" I'll give mine away.. A reader from USA,
Since you received this for a shower gift, I can see why you were blinded with bliss. Has the real world set in yet? Well when it does, BUY the book, you'll need all the help it provides.
As for the millions of people who live in the real world this book is helpful, practical, and most importantly fun to read. Keep it as a reference when you are finished. QoC provides enjoyable reading and useful information for everyone, in each of her books. GREAT WORK!!
