A few good short stories

I enjoy reading different short stories in an anthology. I will always like a few and dislike a few. I disliked more than I liked in this volume.

I had to stop listening

The ones I listened too where all just sad a depressing for the most part. I kept think there would be some up and down but they were seemingly all downers. I just don’t have time for that in my life. Especially when you want light enjoyment while heading to work.

I would suggest a new performer, at least.

I would suggest a different performer. Can't get to the stories. I must be out of the demographic. unlistenable.

Best Collection of Stories

I loved this! The stories are of a high quality, diverse, and imaginative. The narrators are talented. The collection is so good that I am going to listen to it again and look up the authors to see if they wrote their own collection. I’m hooked on this series. I look forward to The Best American Short Stories of 2023!

So depressing

Mr.Greer clearly has an agenda. I actually agree with many of these issues. But this is a collection of sad, doomsday, angry, and over the top depressing stories. Going into this I was going to pick a magazine and subscribe. Not now. I could barely get through them. One worse than the other.
