    Lol, I enjoy reading books online far more then reading the actual books...

    I can read much faster on computer screens then on paper.

    I dont, Im a speed reader, and I tend to reread books 10 + times. My bathroom is my library, lol.

    ROFL.

    I did think it was fucking stupid in Proven Guilty, Harry goes to pick a door, and asks her to turn around so she wont see him do it and she's bitching about it.

    @Harry/Lasciel shippers

    You guys know Lasciel or Lash doesn't actually exist, sure Dresden will feel like he's having sex but in essence he will be just pleasuring himself...

    Everytime Dresden says "Murphy is good people" I punch something small and cute, hate her. Harry/Susan was okay while it lasted but I don't see him going back to her again, Harry/Luccio seems temporary and the rest of the characters mentioned so far Dresden will never go out with.

    I'm hoping for a loner Dresden all the way through, it's annoying as hell when he's with a girl instead of fighting.

    She does... but its only in a void outside of reality. @_@

    But yes... its kinda creepy. One of the more odd Advanced masturbation techniques.

    I still don't get that phrase. Maybe it's an American term, but shouldn't it be "Murphy is a good person" or "Murphy is good, people" (as in breaking the fourth wall type of speech)... Done like that it sounds like she's several people, and unless she's got MPD I seriously doubt there is more than one of her.

    The phrase is an Americanism, though one that I believe has fallen out of general use.

    Agreed.

    There were many scenes where I liked Murph. Susan, on the other hand, I hated from the beginning. She's arrogant and a slut. She fucks up big time and comes back with her oh-so-super new powers. If there's a Ginny in TDF, it's her.

    I agree on the whole Hawaii-issue though. I really thought and hoped until the end of that book, that it was all a setup, a trap or something else, with her giving Harry subtle hints. But I still hope that Butcher will tell us what exactly happened there, explaining some things.
    Things like Harry lockpicking that door while Murphy turned away were IMHO more humour than anything else.

    I want Harry/Maeve. Or Mab. Molly could be cool, too.
    Lash would be perfect.

    As long as it feels good.
    And she isn't bound by the laws of physics or anatomy.
    Think about it.

    ...

    I thought about it. And am still slightly squicked.

    The situation would remind me waaay too much of Lars And The Real Girl.

    "This is my girlfriend, Lash."
    "Harry, there's no one there..."


    Yeah, that would work. I actually quite like Murphy, but she could never be paired with Harry. I like the fanfiction ideas for Harry/Whoever (Ancient Mai's little smut scene especially), but I agree with Perfection. Harry should stay on his own.
