"The Little Green God of Agony" - a good one! And just when I was thinking King doesn't write much from the female point-of-view, here comes this story.

"Tommy" - at least it was short. Not so much a fan of King's poetry.

"Blockade Billy"- skipped because I've already read this one. Regarding it, my previous review was: "Short novella by Stephen King. Pretty quick read although I did get lost sometimes in the baseball play-by-play and players' nicknames. Also a bit obvious in the supposed mystery, and the wrap up explained at the end, but I guess that's necessary with such a short book?"

"Mister Yummy"- great characters, tender story

"Under the Weather" - good foreshadowing in this one. I saw it coming!

"Herman Wouk is Still Alive" - not one of my favorites but I did like the structure of the story - two parts waiting to collide.

"Ur"- Really enjoyed this one, well developed characters and an interesting plot. Also cool to read in the intro that Amazon made a pink Kindle for Stephen King based on this story.

"Afterlife" - I feel like I've read or heard this story before. Maybe just a version of it because all of the details don't add up, just the overall theme/ feeling/ heart of the story.

"Morality" - I'm not sure how I feel about this one, and I think that is how it is supposed to be. Definitely not a favorite from the book. Main character not very likeable, her husband and other supporting characters not very developed. SK can do better.

"A Death" - King got me on this one.

"The Bone Church" - skipped

"Bad Little Kid" - great! I really enjoyed this one. I liked the way King framed the story with the inmate telling the tale to his lawyer.
