I follow Mercury Stardust on Instagram and love her approach to demonstrating basic home repair with a side of queer honesty and joy. (Also, she gets 8 billion points for calling herself "The Trans Handy Ma'am." I love it.) Since I didn't actually *use* the book to do any of the maintenance or repairs she discusses, I guess I can't say for sure, but from my perusal, this looks like a great guide for any renter (or homeowner) for the kinds of things that are quite likely to come up (weather-proofing windows and doors; unclogging toilets and drains; basic dishwasher, dryer, and washing machine maintenance; rehanging doors; replacing cabinet hinges; and so on). Also includes tips about what not to do, a guide to finding an apartment and checking your lease for nonsense, and a list of the simple tools it's good to have on hand. I saw this at my library today, and while I largely checked it out to support my library's buying (and prominently displaying!) the book, I enjoyed the hour I spent with it. I think it would be a great gift for someone getting their own place for the first time. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"Renting a home can be a complex process--from finding a safe and affordable space, to hiring help for moving in and out, and of course, managing any repairs that come up during your stay. You deserve to feel empowered to take matters into your own hands--and it's not as hard as you might think. In this book, Mercury will show you how to tackle the projects that need improvement in your home--from how to properly fix a clog in your bathroom sink and safely hang things on your walls to patching small and medium drywall holes"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
