review 1: I thought this book was fine. Happily, our family is already doing a lot of the things in this book. There were a few times that I shared stories or ideas with my husband, but most of the time that was because we had experienced almost the identical thing and I found it bizarre. We are 6 years into "living with less", but this would be a good book for a family thinking about cutting back, going to one income, or just getting ready to have a baby.
review 2: This book is preachy, but in a nice way. I didn't realize it was preachy when I picked it up. The middle reads more like a bible study. The last couple chapters deal with more practical subjects but it is written from the perspective of a particular couple, their family and friends. They didn't come up
... morewith anything different that my husband and I came up with. I guess I was hoping for more suggestions on places we haven't thought about cutting back. I already stopped buying paper towels a few years ago which was their example they gave of needs vs. wants (paper towels are a luxury). less

Very good common sense stuff. Helped me to focus on what's important and remind me of what's not.
