Having been a nerdy child and being a nerdy 'young adult', I'm confident in my expectations of this book.

I didn't want to stop reading but I felt COMPELLED to post a status update on page 420.


In all seriousness, I smell gathering-up of friends to go rushing into heroic suicide afoot.
I'm game.

Home stretch, D man. Let's rock.

When you go to the library for 'that one book'

... and this happens.
Just for the record, 'that one book' was A Torch Against The Night.

Remember how hostile Toot was towards Harry in Storm Front?
And now it's "All hail the Za Lord!"

Butcher is just the frakking KING of character development, no debate.
His faeries have grown as characters.

All the dealings with Lily, Fix and now Ace make me wish I'd paid closer attention to Summer Knight. You know, when I read it TWO YEARS AGO XD

Just over that halfway mark. Let's see if I can squeeze this one into March.

Obligatory Hobbit gif you've seen three thousand times since the damn movie came out.


... Actually I'm just heading back home to Texas for the weekend and won't be on till Monday ^^"

I should have a review ready to go, though :D

Be merry, y'all.
The zombie queen will return.

Was... Was that their FIRST HUG?
Oh, hell's freaking bells. The feels.

Also, Harry's cussing a lot more. I don't have an opinion on it either way, it's just something I've noticed.

Yay! Bob is mobile!

I was dealing with serious Thomas-withdrawal. Good to know he's back and as broken and badass as ever.

I'm *sniffle* not crying. Y-you're *sniffle* crying!

I've seen this around and it looks like fun so why not?

Book girlfriends:
Susan Rodriguez.
Laia.
Karrin Murphy.
Helene Aquilla.
Touka Karashima.

Book friends:
Molly Carpenter.
Waldo Butters.
Thomas Raith.
Kinsey Locke.
Samwise Gamgee.

Think about who yours would be, I'd love to here them.

And yes, two of my girlfriends and three of my pals are from the same series.
Shut up.

I like Tariq. More speficically his relationship with Laila.

No need to get through this one too fast because I don't have to do a report on it till next Monday. Trying to read t slowly and gather lots of good quotes :)

It also *might* be on semi-hold until I finish Cold Days.
It's spring break and Dresden comes first.

Reading this for spring break (which i'm officially on. Wooo!).

Hittin' me straight in the feels from the frickin' start, huh dude?

Let it be shouted from the mountaintops that there's a frickin' SHINEDOWN REFERENCE on page 74 of this book.
Song title drop. Harry Dresden, as well as Mab, Queen of Air and Darkness, dig my favorite band since I was frakking TWELVE.
I could die happy.
'Scuse me while I continue to freak out.

Bookish question because I felt like it.

Have you ever read a book where the main character shared your first name? I just realized I never have, so I was wondering.

Fun fact: I DID read a book in grade school where one of the side characters shared my last name. That was weird 0.0

Finally got back on this today. I need to turn in a paper on it on Friday, so, review tomorrow.

Thoghts:
-Nick's alright. He seems like a legitimately decent person surrounded by, in kind terms, wackadoodles
-Jordan seems nice. Ish.
-I wanna smack every single other character. I'm supposed to, yes?
-I've had worse required reading. I still enjoyed this more than the Orwell Duo.

Awesome quote from one of my favorite female superheroes, Ms. Marvel.


Happy womens' day, nerds.

Being laid up with a fever all weekend didn't allot as much time for reading as I'd hoped.

BUT.
-Long-haired Harry is my new favorite ♡
-D man digs the Foo Fighters. YAY-YUH.
-Hosebeast is the best insult ever.
-*growls* I hate this icy bitch more and more every time i have to stomach her.
-614 pages. SIX HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN PAGES.
... Hell's bells.

I knew it. I so called it. That evil was WAY too familiar.

I think I know who did The Thing, too. I think I know and it's making me ILL.

I'm about to be in a car for 3+ hours, so *hopefully* i can rate this tomorrow or Thursday.

Come on, Harry. Roast these fools.

Also. Where THE FRAK is Thomas? I need my vampire fix ASAP :(

I try to keep my updates here bookish, but c'mon. I HAD to show y'all this.


More dye washed out than i was expecting, so i'll have to do it again soon, but for now it's fine.

I guess i've got a 'green streak'.

...Sorry.

These freaking references. Star Wars, Super Friends, Cowboy Bebop and oodles upon oodles of X-Men references.
Oh. And now Independence Day.
Jim Butcher preaches to his choir.

Also. Precious little pre-teen Harry is officially one of the top 5 best things in this series.
No arguing.

Lastly it's 100% Butters or bust. Accept not substitutes.

Whoa... Upon The Sweeping Flood was actually REALLY good. Four stars.
Hoping this keeps up :D

I was going to wait a while until i updated again, but, we're at page 102 here and so far there have been references not only to Star Wars and the Super Friends, but also to
COWBOY. FRICKING. BEBOP.
Don't even try to tell me i'm making up a reference. I know what i read.

I'm honestly in so much pain though. I wanna hug Murphy :'(

Huh. That last one, What Death And Love Should Have To Do, was not bad. Maybe 3 stars.
I still have SO MUCH to get through though -_-
This might be on hold till i finish Gatsby and Ghost Story.

I had zero time to read this weekend. *sigh*

Mort? Where the hell has he been? When last we saw him he was embarrassing himself on the Larry Fowler show.

Yes, this is academic. I knew I had it coming sooner or later.

I just read the first 2 pages aloud (because *eye twitch* that's part of my assignment) and I stumbled over a few words, but it's not that bad.
I burst out laughing too because,
"I was privy to the secret griefs of wild, unknown men."

Yes, yes, I know it DOES NOT mean what it sounds like it means, but...
Come on.

I've read the whole first chapter (which is -GASP- six pages!) and
I. Am more ready for this. Than I have ever been. For anything. Ever.

According to my Dresdenite buddy (looking at you, Liz) this isn't the best in the series, and that's fine. Whatever contributes to the mythos of Harry Dresden, i'm for damn sure reading it.

Maybe you're not supposed to poke at short stories trying to find the point, but, I've read four stories and not had ANY idea what any of them were about :/

Read the first two stories yesterday.
Two stars, both of them.
I have no goals for this book, just to finish it at some point. I've been meaning to read Oates and this collection was lying around so *shrug*

Ingest too much caffeine (chocolate, coffee, however you take your poison) and read some gorey comic books.
That's the way to do it.

Anyway. Happy naked baby shooting people with arrows day.
