Whether they are found on city sidewalks, stuck in chain-link fences, tucked into the pockets of secondhand clothing, or on the grass in a school yard, these items give readers an uncensored, poignant, and often hilarious peek into other peeple's people's lives.

 No
Thought this would be something similar to PostSecret, as that was what came recommended, Boy was I wrong.
Not a book for those seeking to be entertained on late nights and rainy days.

Very Interesting. Could not keep my eyes out of the book until the last page.

Not for the PG-rated reader! ( reidsrus )
Although I can see why this book holds such fascination for many adult American readers, those of us who would rather not be reminded of the depths of depravity of the human mind would not enjoy it at all. I bought this book as a gift for my deep-thinking teen-aged daughter, thinking it would be a novelty for her to read, but as I skimmed through it before wrapping it, I realized what a bad choice I had made. Though there are some funny and inspiring tidbits throughout it, much of it was crude and offensive. No, I didn't read the whole thing, but what I read was enough to turn me off completely...and sadden me that our society has stooped to this level. My only comfort is that many of the sick things I read were meant to be kept private in the first place. I just wish they had been.

FOUND II is a great find! ( schultzey89 )
Found II is a great book! I absolutely love it. There are plenty of letters, notes, photos, lists, papers and other oddities that people have left behind. I like how they set the book up, too. They group a few things together that have the same idea/theme. The only thing I thought would make this book SOOOO much better, is if it was in color. But aside from that, I LOVE IT. I will be buying FOUND 1, as well. Highly reccommend it to anyone looking for some insight into the human mind... well, kind of. Still a good read, nonetheless.
