Overall I liked how by the end everything was strung together in this world. Franklin is hilarious and also a sad character, but I like that he was interwoven throughout.

Unfortunately, I felt that this set of stories was a bit bland, not very gripping. I loved the premise of a few and the absurdity of it, but otherwise it just didn’t do a whole lot for me.
