Living Simply: A Teen Guide to Minimalism

by 

Sally McGraw

Published January 1st 2019 by Twenty-First Century Books

I've read a fair number of books about minimalism and simplicity so the content here wasn't anything I haven't seen elsewhere. So how does this book stand out from the rest? First, Living Simply is aimed at teenagers. I love that! The teen years are a perfect time to make decisions about how you want to live your life, before getting bogged down in all the stuff and bad habits. McGraw has done a nice job of covering the bases of living a simpler life, focusing not only on the physical "stuff" but also discussing the environmental and social impact of our daily choices, giving the reader a more global view of the part they play in the state of the world. 

Thank you to Lerner Publishing Group and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.
