I got this book for free for answering a trivia question on Dear Photograph's facebook page. I LOVE the book! It made me so teary-eyed, happy, and nostalgic. The book itself is wonderful, the only thing I did not like was that on some of the photo descriptions the font was a little hard to read. But I would have definitely bought this book anyway, and I recommend it to anyone who wants a good picker-upper lying around the house for when they feel down. :) I enjoyed the heartfelt sentiments from the contributors, and although some sentiments are tear-jerkers, I didn't feel any were mawkish - they're merely heartfelt feelings/longings the images evoked. Makes me wish I actually had photos from my youth to see what returning to those physical places would bring to mind for me. Definitely recommended, and I appreciate that Taylor Jones came up with an idea I've not seen in a book before. It's a great reminder to hold on tight to those you love (many photo subjects are either deceased or estranged family) because in the short time we spend on an orb spinning around the universe, nothing is more important than the relationships we have with others.

Beautiful book, though sad sometimes. I love the creative idea behind it!

A fun and easy diversion..also tugs at the heart from time to time.
