Some of the stories were quite good, others were meh. Yet one was disturbing, i.e. Buy a bullet, this should come with a trigger warning. You don't think this light-hearted collection would contain such a dark story; not when one of them is a graphic story about butterflies and grasshoppers, which at least one reviewer didn't know it was included as a pdf with the audiobook. 
The majority, if not all, of the narrators were excellent.
It was not a good collection because only few intrigued me.
