I kind of wish Nick Offerman would've just narrated the entire thing. Bless him.

Oof, was looking forward to this collection of short stories as I really need to laugh these days. But I don’t think I laughed at all?? This comedy turned into a tragedy quickly, I wouldn’t recommend it.

The narrators are all excellent, but some of the stories are a bit rubbish. The one read by Patrick Stewart was pretty bad. It's fun light entertainment though, and as a freebie with the Audible subscription it's hard to fault. Good when you want to switch off. I loved the final story based around Snow White, a huge improvement on the worst fairy tale ever written.

I mostly enjoyed the book, but an hour of the humor was satisfying and 2.5 hours was more than enough. For me this was just too much of a good thing. I finished the book today, and the only story I can remember from the whole book is the one from the dog's point of view. Nothing else stuck. I did enjoy Nick Offerman as the host; his dry wit makes me laugh.

Well narrated, but I didn't like the stories. Gave it a 2 because ONE story was pretty danged great (training pamphlet for aliens). Otherwise, I guess I'm not cynical enough.
