I love the Dresden Files, so any time I can get more from that world I am excited. I have always really liked the Dresden Files short stories that Butcher has written and then collected, and this book was no different. The stories in this collection were really interesting and did a good job of looking at the people around Harry as well as Harry himself. The insight and character development of the side characters in this collection were really awesome and I hope he writes more from those other character's points of view. I especially liked the Bigfoot stories, the stories about Molly and the Zoo Day story, which was a brand new story and totally worth the price of the whole book.
--------------------
Having listened to this on Audible, I am even more in love with all of these stories. Having someone read the stories and put emotion into the words just made them better. The Big Foot stories were great and even better read aloud and the stories about Molly, Butters and Harry/Maggie's first day together at the zoo were so much better read aloud.

I enjoyed these quick Dresden stories. It made me think about all of the things going on in the Dresden-verse that Harry's not privy too, and showed how other people see him.
