Ghost Story Starts May 9th 12ASF.
In GS Harry is told he’s been “gone” 6 months (May to October is only 5 months). Are we a month off here, or did Changes happen late enough in October (very near the 31st) that “Early May to Late October” is considered “close enough” (whole of May thru Oct inclusive is 6 months).

Maybe it's just me, and maybe the rest of this thread is TL; DR to check, but I always thought that Changes was set in November, it being six months before May and all... There would DEFINITELY have been some sort of mention about Harry's b-day coming up in Changes had it been in October, especially if it was so late in the month...

From chapter 18: "She wore a soft blue nightgown and a shawl to ward against the October chill in the night, and her bright blue eyes flicked around alertly."
Chapter 28: "I felt myself grinning fiercely as he vanished through the broken window and into the cool air of the October night."
and Chapter 33: "“Yes, my liege!” Toot said. He brandished his sword with a flourish, sheathed it, and zipped straight up into the October sky."

--- Quote ---7 ASF, May: White Night. Marcone becomes the first vanilla human freeholding lord under the Unseelie Accords. Molly is 19, somehow having celebrated two birthdays in the ten months between this book and Proven Guilty, in which she was 17.

First Issue of Down Town. Harry says White Night was a few months ago, yet he also says that Molly is 20 and there is snow on the ground [at least near Harry's house]. Snow or not, it is clearly cold.
For Molly to be 20, it would have to be 2008 (8 ASF). Is this set in January 2008? Does this mean that Mollys' Birthday is in January?

It's set in February, in the days before the short story "It's My Birthday Too," which takes place on Valentine's Day. In that story, Molly is referred to as being "just out of her teens."

So, right around this time of year. That's neat. Still, if Molly is described as being 20, that implies that her birthday was in January. Based on the Timeline estimates for the year of her birth.
