As I am not from USA and English is not my maternal language, I had not idea what that meant but I twill comment anyways so you can see it from Foreign eyes. I thought Harry was saying a word beginning with "me" and stopped himself. Problem was that I had not idea what word. Meanie? I saw no reason for him not saying the whole word if that were the case. Like, if the quote was "that mo-weasel" I had thought Harry was thinking Motherf... and cut himself because there could be some child around.

I think Justine had sex every time she needed to break the protection, but I do not think it was with the same person. So, it would be "Sex with Thomas, sex with a random person" in loop. And that random person could be a lesbian or a man, no matter to anything.

And what LaraBeck (by the way, I love the name "Lara") says about Harry's reaction to Murphy's death fits my feeling 

Well, my experience is different. I never believed Harry loved Murphy, at least not True Love, so I was surprised when he actually burnt Lara. I always thought their love was the love of a dear friend or sibling. More than many romantic loves, granted, but not True Love.

I agree, Mira.

I thought your forum name was because you were a fan of Lara, and I was so confused about your posts 

I always thought Harry would not be with Lara because she feed of people, so yes, some retconned seemed to have been happened, so now she tries not to kill. She is the same person that had imprisoned the wee-folk. I agree now Jim is making her nicer (btw, the same happened with Mab, who suddenly became "not cruel"). Some things can be explained in universe by Harry being unreliable, Harry growth and Harry different mental states. And some can be explained by Mab being a manipulator, that sometimes presents herself as crueler and sometimes as a full Vulcan. However I think there is some retconning too. All that said, I think Lara is literally a good partner for Harry, both in universe and as a character for us to read.
But the part of maternal feelings did not affect me because I think it was not new. We have seen what Lara can do for Thomas, in PT/BG for example and I think Lara behave differently when she was under her father control, so she cannot show a preference for the "silly and useless" brother.

I also hope you are wrong about Thomas because I want them together, being loving with each other. Thomas had time to think. To reflect about what his own actions did, how Harry lost his woman for ever, not for a few years like Justine. And also he had lost Susan too, by his own hand. And how Harry lost friends in the battle, and what Lara and Harry risked for him. I think when Thomas got time to think, to talk to Lara, to heal some of the pain, much of his anger dissipated, and hopefully with more time, he will be back to completely love and trust Harry. It Harry had not did what he did, Thomas would be dead or imprisoned, Justine nemfected and who knows what plans Nemesis had for the baby. Those are facts and Thomas eventually will understand that. At least, that is what I hope and what I believe  . Of course I may be wrong.

You don't want Harry and Thomas having a good relationship?  I love them together, it is one of my favourite things in the series.
I honestly see nothing eye rolling about Lara being Thomas "mother". It is nothing that we did not know.

Of course, everyone likes different things. That is fine or life would be much more boring.

Yes, in the DF spoilers section are some discussion about those issues, some of them are weird. But in general, I liked it and I am glad you enjoyed the story too.

Back when the mods were more around, they always asked to spoiler-tag the posts about the most recent book, especially the first couple of months.
