A review by bookph1le
Cold Days by Jim Butcher
Did not finish book.
Nope, couldn't do it. If I had to read about one more stacked, hot woman throwing herself at Harry, I was going to rip all the hair out of my head--and I like my hair a lot more than I liked this book. The Molly factor especially annoys me because it's just plain gross. Seriously, it's gross. My advice is to lay off it, Jim Butcher. In fact, my advice is to stop objectifying the female characters in your books altogether. Just. Please. Stop.
Changes was the last great Dresden novel,and it's sad for me to watch a series I used to love go so sideways. I think it's time for Harry to retire permanently. His ship has sailed, his shark has been jumped, and any other cliche you want to work in here. I should probably make a Star Wars reference, in keeping with the MANY in this book.
You know what? Write a book about Thomas. Thomas is a character who is interesting, has inner turmoil, and has grown over the series. Harry, not so much. I loved him so much in the beginning, but now he just seems stuck in middle school.
Bye, Harry. It's been a good run but this time it's not me, it's you. It's definitely you, my old friend.
