Post-It Note Diaries: 20 Stories of Youthful Abandon, Embarrasing Mishaps, and Everyday Adventure is edited and illustrated by Arthur Jones. The stories are true and are illustrated by black marker on Post-it notes. Each story is certainly unique. The topics include John Hodgman's experience while riding the NYC subway while holding a staff topped with a green Styrofoam cobra head to Mary Roach's story of time spent in the company of Nicolas Cage. Arthur Jones' story about a previous landlord is particularly memorable.
All the stories are about what can happen in a life and some are embarrassing, some humorous and all easy to read. I tried to choose one story as my personal favorite and then I would read another one and it became my favorite. Each story has its own merits and the collection will appeal to a wide range of readers.
Arthur Jones' wonderful illustrations are the perfect accompaniment to each story.

I received the book at no charge from Goodreads First Reads.
