OK, so I got 38 posts in 7 days, I read a good number of books, so I had a good week, and I have some really great books to read in this coming week! What about you guys? Happy reading!

So this week I want to read Harry's Day Off, The Warrior, Backup, Last Call, Curses, Turn Coat, Journal, Love Hurts, Bigfoot on Campus, Changes, Goodbye, and Ghost Story.

When it comes to tracking deadly paranormal doings, there's no such thing as a "Day Off" for the Chicago P.D.'s wizard detective, Harry Dresden.

New York Times bestselling author Jim Butcher delivers a hard-boiled tale in which Harry Dresdens latest case may be his last.

Let's get something clear right up front. I'm not Harry Dresden. Harry's a wizard. A genuine, honest-to-goodness wizard. He's Gandalf on crack and an IV of Red Bull, with a big leather coat and a .44 revolver in his pocket. He'll spit in the eye of gods and demons alike if he thinks it needs to be done, and to hell with the consequences--and yet somehow my little brother manages to remain a decent human being. I'll be damned if I know how. But then, I'll be damned regardless. My name is Thomas Raith, and I'm a monster. So begins "Backup" a twelve thousand word novelette set in Jim Butcher's ultra-popular Dresden Files series. This time Harry's in trouble he knows nothing about, and it's up to his big brother Thomas to track him down and solve those little life-threatening difficulties without his little brother even noticing.

Harry takes on the darkest of dark powers–the ones who dare to mess with this favorite beer.

Harry Dresden investigates how to lift a curse laid by the Fair Folk on the Chicago Cubs.

Accused of treason against the Wizards of the White Council, Warden Morgan goes in search of Harry Dresden in a desperate attempt to clear his name and stop the deadly punishment from taking place in this latest thrilling addition to the Dresden Files series.

A little insight into what was going on in Morgan's head during the events of Turn Coat. WARNING: Contains MAJOR SPOILERS for Turn Coat, Changes, and Cold Days!

Harry and Murphy investigate a series of love spells with deadly consequences.

Finally, Irwin is all grown up and has a grown-up's typical problems as a freshman in college in "Bigfoot on Campus," or would have if typical included vampires.

Long ago, Susan Rodriguez was Harry Dresden's lover-until she was attacked and left struggling with the bloodlust of the vampiric Red Court. Now, she needs Harry's help. Harry's enemies have found the secret she has hidden for so long, and he will have to unleash the full fury of his untapped power.

Because this time, he's fighting to save his "child."

Harry's phone call in Changes.

When an unknown someone shoots him and leaves him to die, Harry Dresden hopes he might be heading to a better place. Unfortunately, being dead doesn't make Harry's life any easier.

Trapped between life and death, he learns that his friends are in serious trouble. Only by finding his murderer can he save his friends and move on--a feat which would be a lot easier if he had a body and access to his powers. Worse still are the malevolent shadows that roam Chicago, controlled by a dark entity that wants Harry to suffer even in death.

Now, the late Harry Dresden will have to pull off the ultimate trick without using any magic--or face an eternity as just another lost soul...
