The only one I didn't care for and didn't finish, was "The Roads Must Roll" by Heinlein. There have been a few WTF? stories too, especially "The Country of the Kind," by Damon Knight but overall worth the read. I was worried that they would be really dated but that hasn't really been an issue.
That's the beauty of the golden age sci-fi stories, they stand the test of time. Long version of Algernon is so good, really moving. Glad to see you digging the HOF list.
