Looking for a cleaner home without the upkeep taking over your whole life?
Those of us living in the real world know that it can be challenging to keep a clean and tidy home. Busy lifestyles, shared housing, physical limitations or mental health issues can all contribute to making a once calm environment feel daunting and stressful.
The Unf*ck Your Habitat system in Less Mess, Less Stress works with you, not against you, and shows how just thirty minutes (including a ten minute break!) can transform any space. With low-effort, high-reward tricks, tips, lists and challenges, Rachel Hoffman's reassuring guide is full of no-nonsense advice and practical help on things you can do today for a less messy tomorrow.
While this book won’t wash your dishes or fold your laundry, it will give you all the tools you’ll need to stay on top because everyone deserves – and can have – a home with less mess and less stress.

Critics Review
-
Hoffman’s approach to tidying up is blunt, utilitarian, and . . . the epitome of a moderation diet: Do what you can, when you can, and stop beating yourself up about it.
Elle -
As much about self-empowerment as it is about taking care of your home.
Business Insider -
The perfect housekeeping guide for somebody who is overwhelmed with their mess and can’t figure out how to start – or somebody who is always starting marathon cleaning projects only to watch everything go to hell again.
Lifehacker -
Rachel Hoffman bursts into the genre like a cursing, #realtalk-spewing big sister determined to help us get our acts together . . . a rehab manual for anyone taught to feel like our clutter defines us. It’s for anyone who breaks out in a cold sweat at the thought of a surprise houseguest.
LA Review of Books -
The cleaning guide that you’ve always needed. It sets totally doable goals while keeping in mind that you have a life.
Popsugar -
Has the potential to change your life and to improve your mental outlook in truly beautiful ways. So don’t let the hilarious and sometimes obscene advice fool you – this book is important and it is a good, good thing to have in the world.
