For her early works, I feel the stories were well written, of course the art can't keep up with what her skills bring forth today. Good for a quick read and good feeling.
Honestly, if you like oneshots with a 90s flair, these are pretty decent. The stores are very "what you see is what you get" (except maybe for the minor plot twist in the second story), but the panel layouts are dynamic - especially in the first story - and it's not bogged down by weird humor or a plot so confusing you need lengthy footnotes to understand it (two common problems in her longer series). Give them a try if you want a light read.
Story 1 I just did not care for at all. I found it very hard to finish, I wanted so badly to just put the book down and go read something else of more interest. I had hopes of it being enjoyable, but I am disappointed in how the story developed. Maybe I had too much hope in this manga.
I hope the other stories will be better.

Each story is good, but like the previous commenter, not so deep. That being said, I don't mind it at all. I found each of them to be very interesting to read. On the other hand, the artist's art work is okay, but not as great as some of her recent works. It looks very different and it is nice to see what kind of art style she had back then. The characters are so-so. If you are a fan of Tanemura's or just simply a shoujo fan, you may want to consider reading this manga.

The storys are not so deep and the art is... in comparison bad. But when you are a Tanemura fan you should buy it. But when you are only interested in deep and longer manga, my advice is: you don`t need it and you will not like it! But at all Tanemura fans: it's interisting to see the old pictures of Tanemura-sensei. Át her start as mangaka she wasn't as good as today; that's a little comfort for everyone who thinks: "I want to become such a great mangaka like Tanemura-sensei!" I enjoyed to read it, because I'm a fan of Tanemura-sensei.
