Not one to always enjoy short stories i did enjoy this one. The stories varied and it was nice to pick it up, read a bit and then come back to it.

I'm a big fan of short stories, and I'm always eager to discover new writers. However, I'm also a believer that short stories should still be complete--they should resolve and that resolution should make sense. And that's where these stories fall short. They end bluntly, as if they need another paragraph or two to tie them up. They don't. In addition, it was difficult to connect with any of the characters, and to feel invested in the stories.

Overall, the stories were lackluster and didn't capture my attention in any way.
