Book Review: Stuff: Compulsive Hoarding and the Meaning of Things by Randy O. Frost and Gail Steketee
Book: Stuff: Compulsive Hoarding and the Meaning of Things by Randy O. Frost and Gail Steketee
About: Frost and Steketee tell the stories of several hoarders, whose homes have become full of items they can't bear to part with.
Pros: Interesting case studies. References in back. Guide to getting help at the end too.
Cons: Reading it didn't really grip me, the stories kind of blended together. No in-text cites.
Grade: B-/C+

You Are a Lucky Person |
 You are bold, brave, and adventurous. When a decision is right, you don't hesitate. You are happiest when you have an obstacle to overcome. You need to be challenged. You're the first to admit that you're a bit of a slacker. You will let someone else do the work for you if you can get away with it. You are a quick moving person. You get through things as efficiently as possible, though you occasionally cut corners. |
