Outer Order, Inner Calm — A Giveaway!
by Katy on March 5, 2019 · 450 comments
Edit: This giveaway has ended. Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter their name, and congratulations to Kathi whose name was randomly chosen to win a copy of “Outer Order, Inner Calm.”
It’s a happy day in the publishing world because Gretchen Rubin has written another book! This time, our favorite happiness guru has shifted her focus towards how, (for most people) outer order contributes to inner calm.
I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy of Outer Order, Inner Calm: Declutter & Organize to Make More Room For Happiness, and am here to say that this book is a delightful gem. Filled with tips that delve deeper than “buy matching baskets,” Rubin explores the big picture, in essence, the why behind an ordered home. Tips that will launch you on your own ordered journey.
And today’s your lucky day, because one lucky Non-Consumer Advocate reader is going to win their own copy of “Outer Order, Inner Calm!”
How?
Just write your name in the comments section below. That’s it. I’ll randomly pick one winner on Thursday, March 7th at 9 P.M. PST.
Best of luck, may your entire home be an ordered oasis of calm. Or something similar. Okay, maybe one room. Just one side of one room. The top of the kitchen table? Damn, I needed this book.

How exciting! Rebekah D.
I love your blog 🙂
Oooh, love to win a copy, but I’d be just as thrilled to buy a copy. Ah, the day I can finally have real order in my life, the day I be brave enough to dare to let go of anything will be a huge monumental day for me. I’m Jewish and every year at this time before Passover, I say now, do it!!

I hope I win! I am actually a reader from Germany, but I am in Beaverton now, I am here till April helping my parents declutter the attic. This book would be PERFECT!
Oh, and why don’t you have a reader meet up while I am here:)
Nonconsumerism is super easy to practice in Germany, but difficult here. Hats off to you and your work. I enjoy reading about your life in my hometown…the road not taken for me.

I love Gretchen’s books. We also share another passion and that is YA novels. I taught 5th grade and some of the most wonderful characters I ever met were in YA novels. Thank you for all you do, Katy! Penny Larson

I’d like to read it. If you haven’t seen the WP article on her, you should. It certainly changed my impression of her. I also didn’t like any of her books past the ‘Happiness Project’ which I thought was good. But I always like to keep up on the newest books.

I SOOOO want to read this book. If I don’t get your gift copy, I’ll barrow it from my library.
I just remodeled my home, taking my 1976 rambler into the 21st century. Even though I had high hopes of changing my ways when I moved into the “new” house, after just 3 months it is a cluttered mess already.
