Review: VERY short tales!

Even though I'm not a fan of short stories, the title to this one caught my eye and the description of the stories appealed, so I picked it up.  The stories were not bad at all (they all had been previously published) and the writing was good, but the they were SHORT!  One (the one I was most looking forward to, unfortunately) was ONE PARAGRAPH long!  Granted, it does take a great deal of writing skill to condense an idea into one paragraph, and leave the reader thinking of all the possibilities the quick situation-sketch could open up, but I still felt a bit shortchanged.  The longest story was only about 3 pages on my DX, and was IMO, the weakest of the four.Verdict - if you like short stories, this may be your cup of tea, but I prefer mine a little 'meatier'.Note on Kindle formatting:  Excellent.  No issues were noted.
