Hearing the same Stories from different perspectives was amazing and I loved it

Got this on Audible and it was really great listening to other characters' side stories. Finally getting to read Mouse's perspective was probably my favorite.

I don't usually read short stories, but Jim Butcher is awesome and I'll read anything of his. Plus I needed Harry Dresden back in my life. I loved revisiting the Dresden world with these stories. It's the perfect tease while we're waiting for Peace Talks (seriously, when is that book coming??).

I read the following stories from this collection:
Jury Duty 3 stars
Day One 4 stars
Zoo Day 5 stars

the stories from the perspectives of other characters are so much fun, especially the last story, you get it from the perspectives of Harry, Maggie and Mouse.

Good book! It has good stories, some from the point of views of other characters. Many involve family, all of them have humor and show the strength of character. Especially loved the Bigfoot stories. 5 stars!

I'm so glad I decided to read this collection of shorts from the Dresden world. I thought I'd wait longer to get to them but I missed the world so much I just said why not. Some stories were certainly better than others. My favorites were the ones from other characters points of view, specifically the Molly ones, the Butters one and even the glimpse of Maggie's perspective in zoo day. But honestly they were all fantastic snippets into a world that we don't see much of in the second half of the series, with good reason, and I really really enjoyed it!
