The Secret Lives Of Hoarders: True Stories of Tackling Extreme Clutter by Matt Paxton with Phaedra Hise, 238 pages
If you like the Hoarders television show on A&E, you will enjoy this book. Matt Paxton is an extreme cleaner and organizing expert who appears on the television show regularly. Written in 2011, I found this book fascinating. Matt details how he became an extreme cleaner when he found himself with a huge gambling debt. In this book, he writes about some of the most ugly, disgusting, and shocking hoards he has encountered. What I like about this book is that not only does he describe the hoards, but also what brought these people to become hoarders. One of the most fascinating cases described in the book was one where he found $13,000 in cash while cleaning up a rat's nest.
