Outer Order, Inner Calm -- A Giveaway!

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.

    1. 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!!

  1. Hey, Where are all the guys? I'm sure there must be a lot of guys following this great blog!

  2. Just read “The Happiness Project” and loved it! Can’t wait to read this one, too!

  5. I need calmness in my life so badly right now! Being a senior citizen starting many health issues, maybe external calm would be a good thing for the inner chaos!

  6. Rachel Burchett - I hope there's a section about how to declutter/organise books.

    I've never read anything from Gretchen. If I'm not the lucky winner, I'll take it out of the library.

    I look forward to your posts in my inbox.

    Besos Sarah.

    Thanks for the review. Even if I don't win, now I can see if my library owns it!

  9. More than ever, at age 72, I find a need to reduce clutter to find inner calmness. I would appreciate this book.

    1. Hello, Maia!

      All the best,

  11. I'd love a copy. Every single day I promise myself I'm going to get organized, and I mean to, but...

  12. I'm going to see her tonight -- in Harvard Square where she will be talking about this very book! Can't wait. Good giveaway -- thanks!

    Really don't want to have to wait on the library for this book!

  14. MARCIA STEWART! 🙂 I LOVE your blog! I've been reading it for many, many years. You are an inspiration! I've said for a long time that my inner being feels so much better when my outside world is organized. Finally someone has confirmed my feelings in a book! Love it.

  15. I totally agree with the title...just need a bit of help in achieveing 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.

    And I saw her talking about this book on CBS This Morning. Seems very interesting!

  20. Amanda Green. Only just found your. Log a few months ago but am loving going back and reading all your previous posts.

  21. I'd love to win the book and will pass it on to a friend when I'm done.

  22. 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

  23. Katy, I'm not throwing my name into the ring...I just wanted to get the number of comments up to 400. Wow!

  24. 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.
