Humorous but Empty at Times

The Angel of Rome was definitely the most enjoyable story in the lot. Climate change, Never Trump-isms, no religion is good religion and it’s great to be gay, got old and overused throughout. The saddest parts, parts I thought, were the stories of the women who let worthless men rule their lives and how little they actually valued themselves. Overly simple and crude in the what women really want category, nevertheless a few of the stories were extremely humorous with excellent narration. Unfortunately there was a lot of emptiness in the characters, not all, but many.

Enjoyable

I love the freedom that short storage gives you. This collection does not disappoint. I preferred male narrators, and he is one of my favorites.

A fantastic read!

Please don’t skip over this book! Every story was my favorite until I listened to the next one. And read by two of my favorite readers to boot.

Wonderful stories!

Each story is different than the next; all are interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Masterful short stories. Beautifully read.

Jess Walter sets the tone and creates a living & complex a human being with the fewest words possible. My only complaint is that the stories end too soon. I'm back to Audible to find any novels by Walter.
