The best one of the series so far!!!!

Great Dresden book - I was very pleased with it!

I'm guessing from what happens in this book, that it is the pivotal book of the series. This is spoilery, so don't read.

But Harry loses everything. Everything he ever was, everything he claimed to be, everything that made him HIM - he puts it up on the alter of sacrifice for his child. And he wins, but what is he at the end of the book? Delightfully, we never find out, due to the ending. I suspect that the ending is a run around some of the deal Harry made, and if it is... I don't think I will respect Butcher. But not having read the next book in the series, I will with hold judgement.

Damn fine book. Damn fine.

This book destroyed me.

In my opinion, [b:Changes|6585201|Changes (The Dresden Files, #12)|Jim Butcher|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1304027244s/6585201.jpg|6778696] feels different than all other the Dresden Files books, hence the title, probably.

I loved in medias res beginning - just like Harry Dresden, I was, like - WAIT, WHAT???

The plot was AMAZING, intricate, the story fast-paced, and Harry Dresden - brilliant and fun to be around, as always. And this was definitely the first book of the series where I teared up (at a certain moment involving violent inner struggles, cold weather, a knife, and a certain traitorous Winter Knight). And I felt the main hero's unbearable pain in every page of the book.

Changes is the most emotional book yet and that gets it a 5-star rating in my book.

Simple fabulous, couldn't put it down, the first true 5 star book in the series and the end .... Simply brilliant

Harry Dresden morphs into Liam Neeson from Taken. Only the dialog "I will find you &... I will kill you" was missing. A grand climax tying in elements from the past 11 books with poignant moments & a game changing end. A terrific read

The plot synopsis for this Dresden files entry seemed iffy to me - Harry's long-lost lover reveals they have a daughter in need of saving, how cliche - but it turned out to be both exciting and moving. The title does not lie - many things change in this one. I had fallen away from the series for a while after book 1, but got lured back by James Marsters' fantastic audiobook versions. Now I just wish I had waited longer to get caught up, so I didn't have to wait so long to find out what happens next! Argh.

Holy shit. Just wow. Title does the story justice.

Whoooooweee that was fun. But also
