1. ANOTHER Dresden book that was good but nothing else, I'm literally waiting for these to pick up pace, storyline, character arcs, and villains...actually, I'M WAITING FOR IT TO PICK UP EVERYTHING.
2. Summer Knight was indeed better than the first 3 books in the series but it still fails to reach my expectations and believe me THEY ARENT HIGH AT THE MOMENT.
3. This book expands the world slightly but not by much. Dont get me wrong, reading any Dresden book is fun but LET'S GROW FROM FUN NOW!
4. I love Harry's humor, he is a really interesting character to read about BUT HIS CHARACTER ISN'T EVOLVING. People often talk about Harry as if he's dangerous and too powerful but all we get to see ARE HIS 3 MAGIC SPELLS EVERY BOOK!
5. Jim Butcher is failing to get me emotionally attached to these characters, certain instances in the book could have been very emotional if executed properly but they lacked the depth I was looking for. (view spoiler)
6. These books are pretty quick reads and it's almost like I'm watching a TV show, they're fun but I guess I'm waiting for the world to expand and to get a story arc that can expand through the books.
7. I like all the male characters in the books BUT I STILL DONT LIKE A SINGLE FEMALE (Murphy did get less annoying ngl), idk if Susan is struggling or Murphy is sad...I DON'T.
OK my frustration aside, I'm still going to continue but I genuinely want to understand the hype.
