2/5 for Jack the Ripper. Not the best story. Didnt hold me.

The Honeymoon of Mrs Smith isn't nearly as cutting as a standard Shirley Jackson tale. Probably the weakest in the collection (imo)

Paranoia gets 2/5 stars and is quite forgetable compared to the first two tales in the collection.

The Possibility of Evil has to be one of the best stories to open a collection on ever. Sets the tone perfectly for what's to come. Loving re-reading these classics already.

Seven of the Seventeen stories were five stars (for me). I don't think the collection is as strong as The Lottery and Other Stories, but it's still worth the read.
Louisa Please Come Home and All She Said Was Yes were my two faves.
