Anthologies. Norton Anthology. Do you like them or do you feel as if sometimes they pick stories that all seem to "run together" without offering much diversity in terms of literary styles?

I like anthologies for when I have only a few minutes to read, like waiting for an appointment at the doctor's office, or waiting for one of the kids to finish a music lesson. Some people I know use them as bathroom books.
If I really want to spend the afternoon reading, I usually wouldn't pick an anthology. I would pick a nice juicy detective mystery.
