This is the first book of short stories that I have ever read, and I have to say, it disappointed me. The book certainly wasn't bad, but it wasn’t that great either. I only really enjoyed about fifty percent of the stories and I felt like a lot of the stories just weren’t that interesting. There were also quite a lot of allusions to real world online trends and games which didn’t really work for me because when I read I'm generally trying to avoid all of that. 

A few of the stories were written beautifully though, with characters and plots I loved. This book was really diverse and had a great cast of characters and stories.
