The wildly popular YouTube star behind Clean My Space presents the breakthrough solution to cleaning better with less effort

Melissa Maker is beloved by fans all over the world for her completely reengineered approach to cleaning. As the dynamic new authority on home and living, Melissa knows that to invest any of our precious time in cleaning, we need to see big, long-lasting results. So, she developed her method to help us get the most out of our effort and keep our homes fresh and welcoming every day. In her long-awaited debut book, she shares her revolutionary three-step solution:

  • Identify the most important areas (MIAs) in your home that need attention
  • Select the proper products, tools, and techniques (PTT) for the job
  • Implement these new cleaning routines so that they stick

Clean My Space takes the chore out of cleaning with Melissa's incredible tips and cleaning hacks (the power of pretreating!), her lightning fast 5 to 10 minute "express clean" routines for every room when time is tightest, and her techniques for cleaning even the most daunting places and spaces. And a big bonus: Melissa gives guidance on the best nontoxic, ecoconscious cleaning products and offers natural cleaning solution recipes you can make at home using essential oils to soothe and refresh. With Melissa's simple groundbreaking method, you can truly live in a cleaner, more cheerful, and calming home all the time.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Buy the hard copy

A majority of this book is recipes for homemade cleaning products, it doesn't really make interesting listening. The hard copy is probably much better and more useful.

Loved it!

This is it! Finally a home cleaning book that informs, inspires and entertains!
I have read many - searching for something that would teach me the most efficient way to tackle my boring cleaning chores! Ms Maker is cheerful, down to earth and makes you feel that you really CAN do it! She even makes you WANT to do it! Ok...I listened to the book twice just because it made me feel good about the whole thing!
I have started doing it her way..and I feel cleaning inadequate no more! Thanks Melissa!

Chapter index with titles please?

To be really useful as an audiobook, it would be good to have the chapter index with the titles so you could refer to what you need at any time. The pdf attached with the audiobook is a good idea as it contains the recipes for all the diy products.

Great for Messy People

I’m usually called the tornado in my home. Whether I lived with my parents or my new spouse. I’ve always been really inclined to being on the messy side and haven’t liked cleaning or known how to clean well in the first place. This is a great how to guide to inspire you to get started and keep moving forward with it. I’m so happy I listened to this book and I know I’ll do it a few more reads because it was great!

SERIOUSLY! Buy the physical book

I love Melissa. I love Clean My Space. But, this does not work as an audible.

I know what you’re thinking, “but I get a pdf. “ Or, “I prefer Audibles.” Or, “I don’t want to have to store an actual book.” Or, “I don’t want to wait for a physical book to arrive.”

I thought all of those thoughts so I bought the Audible. Not everything you want to take note of and refer back to is in the pdf. Yes, there are recipes (thank you Melissa.) But she goes into depth regarding essential oils and that is not in the pdf. Also, I got sooo tired of hearing, “refer to the pdf.” I need what you’re saying near the documentation so that doesn’t work for reference. I prefer Audibles too, but this is just annoying. I now realize that I could keep the physical book in my cleaning bin and that would actually be perfect. It would be worth the wait for the physical book. There is so much gold in this book!
