As I said, it is small and early, just saying it might be pointing towards a trend.

For what I've seen around, if you're a new fan, that got into TDF after the hype of Changes (that seemed to come because the writer killed his MC and made it work and Harry is a "cool" guy) and over the 5 year hiatus leading up to Peace Talks/Battle Ground, you like post Changes books.

But if you're old guard, meaning you've been around long enough that you were reading around Dead Beat, went through Changes and had to wait for Ghost Story to come out, you prefer pre-Changes books.

This is just my impression though, based on what I see across platforms where fandom gathers.

 That's a good point, I think it is because the old guard or those who have been fans early on, loved the series for different reasons than the newer fans. 

EBRIEN:
Top 5

1. Changes
2. Skin Game
3. Turncoat
4. Small Favor
5. Dead Beat
6. Cold Days (added because I somehow forgot about Dead Beat.

I like the Denarian Collection of #s 5, 10, and 15. Taken as a collection, they're pretty cool.
Also, there are scenes in several books I absolutely love. In Changes when Dresden and crew first take the field against the Red Court and he uses Earth magic to change gravity! Bam. Love it. Also, when he and Carlos duel the White Court baddies. Good stuff. And the introduction of Goodman Grey in Skin Game and he and Dresden's game against Nic.

Maybe we need a top 5 scenes along with top 5 characters other than Dresden.

Cheers all---Have a good one.
