Free Book - Organized Simplicity (K/N/E)

Update: 1/17/12 Now free from Sony.

Organized Simplicity: The Clutter-Free Approach to Intentional Living, by Tsh Oxenreider, is free in the Kindle store and from Barnes & Noble.
Book Description
Organized Simplicity's aim is to convince its readers that simple living is the absolute best way to live. Be it with house cleaning, family schedule management, personal finances, and managing the "stuff" you allow within your four walls, the only way to live well is to do so intentionally and simply. The first half of the book delves into the "why" behind realistic simple living, giving the reader a nail to then hang the how of living simply discussed in the second half. And by redefining the too often-used phrase "simple living," a busy home manager living in the real world can then make practical changes that work for the whole family. There are chapters for cleaning and organizing the home room-by-room, and future project ideas will inspire readers to turn their house in a haven they love.
