Even you can get your sht together! Tidy the Fck Up is a funny, down-to-earth parody of Marie Kondo's The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, where you'll be handed the most useful tools for keeping your crap clean and organised without all the pressure.

In this book, you'll discover useful ways to figure out what to do with your shtpiles in an approachable, care-free way, and you'll say farewell to the hair-pulling stress of marathon cleaning. Tossing all your junk in a closet doesn't make it any less of a clusterfck, but approaching it little by little and making use of some helpful hints can do a world of wonders for all your sh*t, the comfort of your space, and your general sanity.

With this hilarious guide, you'll learn how to:

  • Become a decision-making bad*ss
  • Get rid of the sht you don't need and keep the sht you do
  • Live life after a clusterf*ck!
  • And more!

With a light-hearted tone that the finest sailors would admire, Tidy the Fck Up will help you make your house a fcking home.
