Eh... not bad. A cute little collection of short stories including some of my favorite authors and some I had never read before. The concept was interesting, pairing a male and a female author and intertwining their iconic characters. The only issue that I encountered was the problem of the “short” story. Everything wrapped up too quickly and easily to fit into the short story scheme. Most of the stories left me wanting more, and wondering where they could have gone with a full novel. They all showed potential, but I feel they fell “short”. ( )
