amyrhoda's review against another edition
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.5
Important to note that this is not a collection of sexy stories. Some of them are sexy, some of them are explicit, some of them are spooky, and some of them are miserable, but they all have sex in them. As you would imagine, they vary widely in tone and style.
This is another good choice as a side book, to dip into as a break from your main book.

masturbatory, but not in the way they intended

This was just so not what I was expecting. The stories were depressing and confusing and there was barely any sex to be found (and what was there was…weird).

Answer to “are the straights okay?” is no.
Definitely not as diverse as it claims to be. This collection is just different variations of the same “married heterosexual hates their domestic life and wants to cheat on their spouse” stories. Incredibly disappointing and painfully boring.
Good: How I Learned Prayer and Vis a Vis 1953
Okay: Odi et Amo
Awful: Love Doll (seriously, wtf?)

Super cool concept. Some excellent stories and some real duds. Worth a try.

Some of the shorts were good but there were also several that were cringe-worthy.

Just wasn't loving it. Some stories were great. Others were just trying too hard.
