The Yellow Wallpaper was a really engaging short story - I really enjoyed it. The rest of the short stories did seem to get slightly repetitive over time. I did, however, find myself relating to some of the women and the way the men around them spoke about them and femininity. Slightly disheartening considering the fact that these stories were written over a hundred years ago.
