*SPOILERS* In nearly every story without exaggeration, characters cry at one point or another out of a sense of heartwarming verklemptness and I have to remind myself not to throw up in my mouth. Applying an academic grading system to each, my average was a generous overall D.

Upon 2nd reading, I find 1 of 21 stories great, 1 good, 6 ok, 5 not good, 4 bad, 3 insufferable and 1 "f****** insufferable". I changed my rating from 4 stars (2008- I was 22) to 2 (2019- I am 33).


STOP CRYING I love me some Bradbury but I find that my tolerance for hollow sentiment is diminishing rapidly with age.
