#audiocrafting a cardigan with these Dresden short stories. It was kind of a shock to not have the whole thing read by James Marsters!!

🎧 12 stories. I‘ve read a couple before. Not all are narrated by James Marsters. Not all are told by Harry. Quite a few about Molly. The best one by far is the last one, ZOO. You get to hear the story in Harry‘s POV & then Molly, Maggie & my favorite, Mouse! A mixed bag but overall a really solid entry in the Dresden Universe.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finishing up some personalizes wedding presents. Then back to my own projects, which, I never seem to get around to. 🙃

1. Jim Butcher - love the Harry Dresden Series.
2. Love.the blend 0f fantasy with a modern vibe.
3. New Orleans

This is a signed edition from Jim Butcher‘s author event that I attended a couple of years ago. All but one of the short stories in this collection had been published before, but the last new story is set immediately before the action of Peace Talks, which just came out. I saved the last few stories in the collection to read in preparation for the new novel, and I loved them. I am listening to Peace Talks and glad to be back in Dresden‘s world.

That's the fastest I've ever hit my 50 book goal! Really expanding my reading life lately. Still I'll always make time for Harry Dresden and the Gang.

Reentering the world of Harry Dresden in anticipation of the two(!) new books being released this year!

Short stories from the Dresden story universe. Some really fun ones in here (Bigfoot, a Molly POV story)! Be sure to check out the chronology of the stories to avoid spoilers!

#HumpDayPost
1. My new book is called This is my favorite day.
2. The working title of my NaNoWriMo book is Project Gen-M.
3. I‘ve written 3 through NaNoWriMo.
4. For fun, for therapy, because I feel like I have something to say.

I read the story "Bombshells" over the weekend and loved it. It's great to see some of the events around "Ghost Story" from Molly's point of view.

It‘s opening day! #sffswap I woke up and couldn‘t get back to sleep and it‘s after midnight. Now I‘m way to excited to sleep! @NovelGirl82 I love everything! I don‘t know what to read first. I‘m going to have a cup of tea and try to decide. Thank you so much!! I think some chocolate will help me decide. Thank you!!😊

Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden series is my favourite. This collection of short stories did not dissappoint - I really enjoyed everyone. Highly recommend for Dresden fans. 5 stars.

Only read it for the never published before story. What I‘d like is a new novel, not a bunch of old published short stories put together

Catching up on some backlogged Litsy posts from recent months. If you're a fan of Harry Dresden, you'll enjoy the Brief Cases collection.

I love love love ❤️❤️❤️ Harry Dresden!!! But this is a short story book and I am sooo just meh when it comes to short stories. So it was ok/. Some fun stuff here.

1. So many migraines 😖
2. Seeing work friends I haven‘t seen all summer.
3. Cray-on
4. Linked book

😂 So true!

That‘s why you know it‘s bad when the introverts are putting down their books and organizing.

I‘ve missed Dresden‘s world, I enjoyed this book of short stories probably more than I should have from his absence. Some were new to me, some I‘d read before but still enjoyed the re-read, and I found it interesting to see how much the character had changed throughout the series reflected in this collection. The short stories from early in the series that are written more noir-esque (broad walls into the office of a Private Dick) seem so off....

I‘m told some of these stories have already been published, but I haven‘t read them. It was nice to have something to tide me over until the next Dresden Files novel.

When you‘re trying to catch up on your back log of books, but a library hold comes in for one you know you can‘t renew...

#BookishProblems

Hello all! Boo and I are thrilled we won an ARC of the Dresden Files anthology BRIEF CASES. 😍
#readingbuddy #dogsoflitsy #petsoflitsy

Up to the short story 'I Was A Teenage Bigfoot'. Just loving this. I've missed having new Dresden to read. #DresdenFiles #Reading #Books #WingedMonkeys

So finally starting this one. Already read the first short story, A Fistful of Warlocks. Reading B is for Bigfoot now. Also: I too would love novels from Luccio's POV. #PleaseMakeItHappen #DresdenFiles #Reading #Books

Friends:

Would you take a moment to welcome my husband @JamesL ?

His interests include electricity, camping, and hiking. He loves Science Fiction and Fantasy most, but is pretty open-minded. He enjoys podcasts, especially Lore and Stuff You Should Know.

Thanks!

As much as Harry is the star of the series, the stories from the perspective of his allies(or enemy) are what make this book a must have.

I also play games like solitaire on my phone, and listen to them as I‘m going to sleep. @RealLifeReading

I met Jim Butcher! He did a Question and Answer session with the audience, then signed books! I love The Dresden Files, an urban fantasy set in Chicago. Butcher‘s new book is a series of short stories that span the time period of the 15 book ( so far) series. I adore the audio versions of these books. James Marsters (from Buffy) narrates them, and he does a perfect job. Mr. Butcher was a delight at the event, smart, funny, and kind.

#releasedayyay And I may or may not read this one. (Butcher's novels have been misses for me, but this release is a collection and I've enjoyed a few of his short stories.) Spouse and parent, however, both have him on autobuy.

Brief Cases is a fun anthology that will help you get your Dresden Files fix while waiting for Peace Talks to publish. I appreciated all the big foot stories because they were pretty unique and I loved Butters story because hey, it‘s Butters after all. I even like Johnny‘s story because it had a few twists in it with a whole lot of action. My favorite though was “Zoo Day.” Full review at www.thegenreminx.com #bookreviewer #TheGenreMinxBookReviews

So excited to be approved for this ARC. Thanks #netgalley 👍🤓
