Reviews for Pets!

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Of all of the Selected Shorts compilations I've listened to, this was the only one that really didn't keep too much on theme. Some of the stories had only a very fleeting animal character that didn't have much to do with the rest of the story. The narrators were all great, but I found the stories lackluster with the exception of the one by Robertson Davies, which made me laugh out loud, and Max Steele's, which was deeply touching.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Some of the stories I found just weird. Others were really funny. The stories aren't really about pets, but are more short stories that have pets in them. One thing I found distracting was that the audio had the audiences laughter recorded. To me it took away from the story.
