Found this one seriously underwhelming after hearing so many things about it. The only one I liked was A christmas memory - the last short story in the book. Breakfast and Tiffany's and the other 2 stories were good but extremely slow.
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Alcohol, Homophobia, and Racial slurs
