Praise for The Checklist Book

“As a lifelong list-freak, I was ecstatic to read this book! And it does not disappoint. I’ve admired Alexandra’s writing for years. The Checklist Book feels like getting a behind-the-scenes tour of her brain, seeing how she organizes her life, business, writing projects, self-care, travel, family time, and more, and how you can do it, too. Whether you’re a list-fanatic (like me), list-curious, or list-phobic, you’ll gain something valuable from this book.”

—Theresa Reed, author of The Tarot Coloring Book, tarot card reader and astrologer (thetarotlady.com)

“I run a dance, voice, and acting theater training school for students, ages ten to twenty-one. Once a year, our students fly to New York City for our annual summer program. I asked Alexandra to make checklists to help the kids get prepared for the NYC trip. These checklists were such a tremendous help—helping students feel calmer and more organized, with a positive, empowered, ready-to-learn mindset. Their parents were amazed, too! One mom told me, ‘I don’t know what is going on with these checklists, but my daughter’s room has never been cleaner. She’s making her bed for the first time.’ And now with this book, lucky reader, you get to the experience Alexandra’s checklist magic for yourself!”

“I haven’t plowed through a book like this in forever. This is the best thing ever. Pure checklist magic! I’ve been so productive the last twenty-four hours. I want to buy ten thousand copies of this book and hand them out to everyone I pass on the street.”

—Gary Cassera, canine behavior specialist, founder of The Dog’s Side (thedogsside.com) and SoulMutt dog adoption nonprofit (soulmutt.org)

“There are thousands of books on how to become more organized and productive, but very few have the heart, soul, humor, and gentle encouragement of this book. The Checklist Book is imbued with Alexandra’s spirit. Emotional and practical. Visionary and realistic. She invites you to consider life’s biggest questions: How do you want to live? What type of person do you aspire to be—while keeping things simple and doable? I love this book. A must-read for anyone who wishes life could feel a little calmer, simpler, and more beautiful every day.”
