I find them fascinating as they advocate a lifestyle I really don't want to live. I've read 2/3 of one of this lady's two books. I found it full of blinding flashes of the obvious, a few interesting ideas and plenty of ridiculous tales (for instance something very lengthy about being thankful to a screwdriver?) I find a cosiness in a study or office space that's lined with books and stuff - think Sherlock Holmes' study. That's not to say I want the same clutter everywhere in the house. It's interesting people can live minimally as I would probably last a week in a nicely minimal space before it didn't look so any more!
