Review: An awesome way to be introduced to so many authors.

This is actually the first anthology that I have read and it had me wanting to try more.  I loved being able to read short stories from so many different authors.  A lot of these authors, I have heard of but have never read their books.  I like that I could be introduced to new writers without having to commit to a story that is a few hundred pages long.  I now have a list of new authors to check out.This is a collection of stories about first times.  Not necessarily the first time they have sex, but the first time they experience something new.  The emotions and thoughts that go through your head when you are finally doing something you've either been waiting to do or something you never knew you wanted until that moment.  I loved being able to experience the anticipation with the characters.Even though these are short stories, they are packed with emotion.  I would feel all warm and gooey after reading one and I couldn't wait to get to the next one.Like I said, this is the first anthology that I've read and I really enjoyed it.  If I wanted to take a break from something, I could pick up this book and read one of the stories.  If Candy Crush was making me lose my mind, I could throw my phone out the window and just pick up this collection and read one of the stories.  I read the stories out of order, starting with authors I was more familiar with then going to titles that caught my eye.  Every story in here is definitely worth the read and you can do so while you wait for your lives in Candy Crush to replenish or trying to piece together the phone you just shattered.
