Haven't gotten that far yet (just took a peak at the spoiler). I'm about 80% of the way through.

Bob's digs were awesome. I wish there was some Marcone in it, though.

I loved Bob'a digs. :hearts:

Luckily though they were spoilers, they might not be fully understandable until someone actually reads through to the end. :wink:

It ended pretty much the way I thought it would, but finding out the big mystery was a big shocker to me (although I'm sure there are people at the Butcher forums who knew what happened to Harry at the end of the previous book).

If I were Harry, I'd just do what Bob would do with Molly, lol.

New Dresden book out this week! :sky: :sky: :sky: :sky: :sky: :sky: :sky:

Cold Days - since Ghost Story was a bit more reflective, this one is nearly nonstop action! :mrgreen:

I started reading it this week. Lord, I'd forgotten how funny these books are! "You've got hat-head." That nearly killed me.

That said, it's a pretty weird book, and got of to a slow start. It's not real clear to me where it's going. But, I can hardly put it down.

It was awesome; those books are like crack. I may need to re-read them all.

I'm reading the Codex Alera now. It's not as good, but still alright. I"m a little over halfway through the third book. I may need to take a break after this one. The books lack the sense of humor found in the Dresden files, and they're a little too much like a lot of other fantasy series, like the Kingkiller series, which I read last summer (at least the ones that are out now).
