The Two Mutch Sisters

I have mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand, I like the message it has about the two sisters finding a way to each have her own space, while still being close, but on the other hand I don’t like the way it endorses the accumulation of stuff. When the book began, describing how the sisters had begun collecting stuff as children, getting two of everything until their house is so overrun by stuff that they can’t function, I was expecting them to end up with a grand yard sale to let go of a lot of unnecessary stuff. In some ways the ending felt like a cop out.
