Yesssssssss so glad you finally made it here. What a freakin ride this book is. And then Butcher just keeps that train of awesomeness rolling through every following book. I think with this one he ascended to fantasy writing godhood!

[@TallGuyReads]

Yesss!! Right?! This book is absolutely bananas hahaha

[@mikesbookreviews]

Happy you no longer have to endure "JUST WAIT TILL YOU GET TO CHANGES" from Dresdenphiles now. Great freaking book.

[@TallGuyReads]

Such a surreal feeling hahaha happy to finally be here!

[@readbykyle3082]

Yesssss such a good review haha I love Changes reactions

[@TallGuyReads]

Hahahha thanks so much man!

[@BaldBookTuber]

Murphy is my favorite Dresden character. It is correct to sing her praises. Glad you enjoyed it my dude!

[@TallGuyReads]

Thanks so much man! Murphy is amazing!

[@PatrickRyanBookReviews]

Great review! I wanted to do a book by book review, but I had the same problem that I was reading them too quickly to stop and film a review. And as far as changes, I didn't even know how to talk about it! You did a fantastic job!

[@TallGuyReads]

Thank you so so much, Patrick! I really appreciate it! This book was absolutely wild hahaha

[@MichaelRSchultheiss]

Excellent review!!! This is such a great book, and I love hearing your thoughts about it! This whole book is so gangbusters, it's just incredible!

[@TallGuyReads]

Thank you so much, Michael! I absolutely agree! it's a rollercoaster from the get go! Amazing book!

[@joylynn0620]

Dresden Files is my favorite urban fantasy series. I've never read another long-running series with better character development. I love the main protagonist but this series would be nothing without the supporting characters. I've read the first 15 books twice and the last two books once. I enjoyed my reread of the series even more. I also really appreciate the way the Jim Butcher has constantly upped the stakes and has introduced new plot lines as the series continues. I can't wait for you to get to books 16 and 17!

[@TallGuyReads]

The character development over the course of the Dresden Files books is truly something special! Really loving it so far!

[@MWhaleK]

A great book in a great series! Not only that but there are a lot of really kick@$$ fanfics based on the series.

[@TallGuyReads]

That's so exciting to hear! Thanks for checking out the vid!

[@RekindledReader]

HELL’S BELLS, ALEX!

[@scottferris2686]

Great review and I’m glad you liked it as much as I told you you would (I’m currently on Book 16). Ghost story is good but not as perfect as Changes. Keep it up!

[@TallGuyReads]

Hahahaha thanks for having faith in me! I'm excited for Ghost Story and should be starting it pretty soon!

[@BaldBookTuber]

Would highly encourage you to read the collection of short stories Side Jobs prior to Ghost Story if you can. The Warrior is my single favorite piece of Butcher’s writing, and I think you’ll love it. Aftermath is also a very good thing to read prior to Ghost Story.

[@TallGuyReads]

Oh awesome! Thanks for the tips! I actually haven't started Ghost Story yet so maybe I'll squeeze in Side Jobs first!

[@derrisreaditbefore]

Love to hear this. Dresden is absolutely victim to the youth of Jim Butcher when he started. While there's joy in following Jim's growth as an author and the satisfaction of the heights he reaches, it does make it a difficult sell to new readers, I know this first hand, as do all the fans, getting through those 'teething' books *are SO WORTH IT*. Jim Butcher had the idea of a truly epic story in his head, we just have to keep getting people to start the journey.

[@TallGuyReads]

Yes I couldn't agree more! It's a hard sell but the journey is absolutely worth it and I couldn't be more excited to continue with the series! Thanks for continually pushing me to keep up with this series, Derri! I'm loving it so much!

[@chadandrews4347]

So glad you made it to Changes. It’s this book, that you realize how invested you are with the characters. It’s like Butcher got you emotionally involved…without knowing it. Welcome aboard!!!

[@TallGuyReads]

Yes exactly! Thanks so much! So excited to see what's to come in the next few books!

[@matthewbrown1151]

I just finished this last night!

[@TallGuyReads]

Awesome! What'd you think?!

[@matthewbrown1151]

@Tall Guy Reads it was great! I think it almost had too much hype, but the last 50 pages, especially the last 2 were pretty wild

[@RekindledReader]

Watched the non-spoiler stuff. I’m starting book 11 next (Turn Coat?) before Changes…this has got me hyped to continue.

[@thatsci-firogue]

I would also recommend reading Book 11 before 12 lol

[@RekindledReader]

@@thatsci-firogue lol that’s the plan! I do like to live on the edge, but not that much.

[@TallGuyReads]

Yesss dude I can't wait to see what you think of Turn Coat and Changes (of course)! Turn Coat is AWESOME by the way! Don't let Changes overshadow it!

[@thatsci-firogue]

This is the 1st book i think of when it comes to books that met the hype. Sure there are others like A Storm of Swords but i wasn't involved in the book community then so I got to read it with as little hype as I possibly could.

[@TallGuyReads]

Yes I agree with you! It's rare when a book with this level of hype actually ends up feeling like it reaches it and I really feel like Changes absolutely did!

[@safinan8008]

Hello 👋 always like watching ur review videos 🎥 I’m currently reading wheel of time book 7… how far are u on wheel of time series?? Happy reading to you!! 📚

[@TallGuyReads]

Thank you so much! Hope you are enjoying Wheel of Time! I finished the series two years ago and had a great time!

[@HANGMANProject]

Wait but you only have 1, 4, and 12???

[@cabrademora1]

:D

[@Coleton2573]

This makes me so happy, Alex. 🥹 I'm so excited for you to read the rest of the series, because I think multiple of the later books actually top Changes. You're going to love Ghost Story, it has some revelations that are going to blow you away, and has some of the most beautiful and deep character moments in the series.

[@TallGuyReads]

Yesss that's so exciting to hear man! I'm so excited for Ghost Story!
