liked it

So I really liked the present or near present time stories that seemed more personal. The ones where the 1st person narrator inserted themselves into this historical situation or that - with the exception of the gay Hindenburg crew members - were kind of stupid really. I don't know if historical fiction is a good short story genre, I doubt it....comes across way to contrived. "So I was talking to the Babe the other day about his base stealing" that kind of bullshit. It the book would've been more of category one and maybe one of category two I would've given it a 4 probably. There are good stories in here that's for sure.
