I think that one of the problems is that they were very man-centric--stories about sons trying to please their fathers or brothers or coaches or whatnot. I did like the story about the female cosmonaut, but that was about it. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/184655?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
