The stories are well-written and some of them were really good, like <b>For Esme-with love and squalor</b> and <b>Teddy</b>. Unfortunately many of them felt rather dated or fell flat at the ending for me. Most of them did not invoke any strong emotions but I believe they simply weren't my cup of tea, rather than the stories themselves being terrible. They did hold my attention however, even when I wanted to speedrun through them at first.
