As an avid reader of the Post Secret blog, this book is fantastic. While at first it may seem a little weird, reading other people' secrets is actually quite cathartic.
This collection is just a small chunk of the hundreds of thousands of postcards that Frank Warren has recieved.
The cards, all displayed in beautiful colour, willl make you cry, gasp in horror and shriek in amusement.
It is a fabulous coffee-table book, I have it sitting in my lounge and everyone who comes in picks it up and falls in love.
Fantastic, highly recommended.

A wonderful, quirky insight into other people's lives. Some funny, some extremely poignant.

I absolutely love post secret. I've been a huge fan, like so many other people around the world for a long time! I'm always looking through the secrets and end up considering sending in one of my own but I'm not brave enough! The secrets of so many are beautiful, sad and inspirational. This book is fantastic.

I find the post secret website both saddening and inspiring, and I have often been anoyed at the fact that previous post secrets are not keeped in some form of archive, so this book was definately a good purchase. While I admit that it is a little expensive, I would say that it is well worth it.

i have always loved looking at postsecret.com! go there, and if you love it, you'll this book. it's a collection of secrets, presented in postcard format from anonymous people around the world. it can make you laugh, make you say "hey! i feel like that too", or make you feel bittersweet, sad... etc.
the book is just... inexplicably wonderful... mainly because it's so different from any other book i own...

An extraodinary book. Credit must be given to Frank Warren for such an amazing compilation - but the true magic lies in the fact that this book was written by YOU! these are peoples real secrets - there is something in here we can all relate to. Fears and Joys, Tragedy and Comedy. Of all the Postsecret books this is the best 'starting point' would make a great gift for anybody.

Wow, what an amazing book! Frank Warren runs a website at postsecret.com where people from all over the world send him their secrets anonomously on the back of a homemade postcard. This is a collection of just a fraction of the thousands he has recieved in response to his initial call. Some postcards take a full page (all in colour) but mostly there is 4 to a 2 page spread. The creativity and frank honesty is amazing and it will make you cry, and make you laugh at the same time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Reading other people's secrest is surprisingly compelling. Even more compelling, however, is seeing people express their sectrets in a visual format. Having long been a fan of Frank Warren's website, this book was no disappointment. As I looked at the artworks contained within, some sad, some funny, some merely mundane, I laughed and cried with the people who sent their secret to this book for me to see. And better yet, some of the money goes toa good cause -- a suicide prevention helpline.
