I spent the last ... uh, month or so ...? rereading all fourteen extant novels of the Dresden Files, plus the Side Jobs shortfic collection, and choosing a cast image for every character Harry exchanges a conversation with or gets a good description of. That's ... a lot of characters. And a lot of reading; thousands and thousands of pages' worth. Phew. Don't think I'll be doing that again for a few years.
(This is, by the way, why I haven't posted any new story parts in a few weeks. Later this week, I promise.)
Finished just in time. I'm going out to buy Skin Game after lunch tomorrow (having taken time off work for that purpose). And then I'm going to the cemetery, setting up my camp chair, and reading it with my dad. Since we can't actually discuss it this year. For my own personal memorial day observation. (He was looking forward to it, too.)
Anyway. There may be a spoiler-cut post sometime later today-ish? Anyone one else rushing out to buy it?

Date: 2014-05-27 07:03 am (UTC)Can't make it this year, though. Would have loved to, but ... it's the day that would have been my parents' 38th anniversary, and also exactly four months since he died. My mom isn't going to handle it well. Figure I'd better not be out of town.
