Getting Clean with Stevie Green

Stevie Green is thirty-seven years old and can’t get past a high school scandal. It has affected her for most of her life. But she has decided that her binge drinking and sex with strange men. After her mother calls her home to help clean up and organize as she moves into a new home, Stevie decides it is time to clean up and get things together in her own life as well. She decides to put her skills to use and begins a decluttering business. She is good at it, she is irked by being #2 as she can’t beat Ursula, a decluttering champion, but she is getting clients and living a clean life herself. If only, she can get past that scandal!

Ever hang on to something in your life? Whether it be clothes you hope to one day fit into again, letters, things you don’t want to part with due to sentimental value? What if what you hang onto is a past hurt, past shame, a past feeling of betrayal?

This was a fun, fast read that does deal with big issues such as addiction, sexuality, and betrayal. I enjoyed the pace and the story. This was a nice change to what I normally read. I didn’t love it, but I still found it to be enjoyable. I doubt I remember it in months to come, but it was a nice way to spend a snowed in day.
