Critiques

Enjoyed


(3 stars)

I listened to all but two of these stories, as I had trouble listening to one of the narrators. This book contained quite an assortment of stories in terms of plot and genre. A few were dull or preachy, but most were interesting and I enjoyed the book enough to grant it three stars.
