What?

Not much into these, I guess they were good, not what I was looking for.

Disappointing

After viewing the quality and quantity of stories in this collection I was excited to listen. Once I started, however, I was very disappointed by the monotonous, uninspired performance of the main reader. It was difficult to even stay focused on the stories: he's that bad. It also didn't help that the audio quality is poor-very tinny sounding.

Good Stuff

Stories were quite good, although a bit uneven i.e. some were just good and some were very good. The same can be said for the narration. A bit uneven but, overall, I'm glad I got this book.

I don’t like it!

I couldn’t connect to the stories. They didn’t keep my interest. It wasn’t scary or interesting. I want to exchange it for something else, but I don’t know how to do that and I need assistance.
