nice

I recieved it and it was a great read. A little bit of writing on the inside cover, but it gave it personality. :)

Occasionally uneven, but some fantastically funny parts.

Actually, I'm one of the authors in the anthology - Cait Glasson, "Paul's Letters to the Lesbians" - and so I'll only talk about the others' stories. The anthology is uneven in places - some stories, while extremely good pastiches, are not tremendously funny, although perhaps if I were more of a fan of the parodied authors I'd think differently - but contains some extremely funny material as well. Some that stick out in my mind, for instance, would include R.E.Neu's "Heather Has a Mommy and a Daddy", which is absolutely priceless, while Shelly Rafferty's "Rejection Letter" is a cruelly accurate skewer of the queer small-press industry. Worth picking up for those two alone, there are some other real gems hidden in this one. And I purposely do not include my own in that; I'll leave reviewing that to someone with a little less at stake.
