3.75

I really enjoyed many of these, and especially loved, All the People were Mean and Bad about a woman travelling on a long flight with her daughter, who makes a connection with the man sitting in the next seat. I suppose I like my short stories to have more of a structure than many of these did. I really liked the writing and the subject matter: motherhood, and sometimes travel, and I know that it's me and my taste that gave it 3.75.
