I usually don't enjoy anthologies because they leave me wanting more. This collection though was MAGNIFICENT. 
Every story had me smiling, a few crying from love. This book is so wonderful. Little snippets of contemporary and fantasy and sci-fi. Love, family, friendship all through out.  The narrators did a spectacular job. 
Cannot recommend this enough.
