Instinct isn't always right

Sure glad I gave it a second listen. The first time, I was distracted and as a result, underwhelmed. Second time around, I paid attention and woohoo! Twists everywhere and trust me, you know NOTHING for certain. Definitely recommend

Loved every story

I loved every story. None of them were groundbreaking, but it was very entertaining and I enjoyed every minute.

Hit or Miss Situation

Some stories are really fun and good. Others are… a male fantasy or just uncomfortable (see chapter 3). Overall I would recommend it for fans of Weir’s work.
