Ghost Story Book Club - Chapters 46-FINISH **MAJOR SPOILERS**
TomCat:
I think that "soul memory" overcomes brain memory, and the prove i have to suport this is in Grave Peril. When Leanansidhe wipes Susan Memories of Harry, she gets them back only when harry tells her that he loves her. At least that's how i see it :)
So i think that Harry should have the memory that Molly took.

Read Ghost Story again for the 3 time, and the book is still to me the worst one of the D-Files. I felt that Jim rushed the book. I won't go into everything I didn't like, but one that I have to voice/txt, How on this green earth does Harry NOT have a interactive goodbye moment with Micheal or his Brother, all he been through with them two and all he does is look on them. That was cheesy and I feel cheated, those two moments could've made this one of the great ones.

Michael was asleep and Thomas was both busy and can't see ghosts anyway.

No one got an interactive goodbye moment with Harry other than Mouse, because only Mouse could see him. Even Mort couldn't see him once Uriel pulled him out of Molly's mind. (Which I think says something important about Mouse, since he could see Harry, even when a major-league ectomancer couldn't.)
Regardless, though, Thomas did get seriously screwed over in Ghost Story. I'd bet that'll be a big issue between him and Harry in the future. He got screwed over in Changes, by not being warned about Harry's suicide arrangement, and he got screwed over even worse in Ghost Story, when Harry didn't visit him or have the chance to drop by and explain everything, or say goodbye. That's the kind of thing that could hurt a close family member's feelings.
As for Michael-- well, of everyone Harry knows, Michael is the one best able to deal with death, imho. I don't think Michael really needed a visitation from a ghostly Harry to be okay with how things turned out.
None of that ruined the book for me, though. I just assume that it will be handled at some future point in the series.

Or it tells you something about Uriel.
