emotional funny

4.0

Revisiting this anthology of short pieces was a treat. There are obviously some hit or miss entries depending on writer/topic but Dave Eggers can curate some truly connecting talent and stick with you. So many relevant overlapping points but also many fun moments.

as with any collection, I enjoyed some more than others, but really what this is about is being perfect bathroom reading; lists for sitting down to pee, short fiction for sitting down for.... longer.

No, but seriously, it's good stuff.
