The Reading Room

[constant-muse.livejournal.com]

There is no Reading Room fic for this week, please accept my apologies for being chaotic for the past week or so in organising this.

What I can offer you now is a new schedule of lovely fics, starting next week and taking us into mid August. And there are weeks still free in between for shorter fics. Please let me have your recs by commenting to this post – all welcome.

What I should have said first, of course, is thank you very much to metabolick for the rec of “Reunited” by Ashlea. Last night I went back and reread the interesting review and all the comments in discussion from last week - brilliant, and just what I love about the Reading Room.


I am sorry it has taken me so long to do this, but I have found the need to prepare the header and have a look at the fic before putting it up here, to check the pairing and story information that I might want to post at prosficspoilers, has made this a much more time consuming exercise than it was before.

Notes:
(1) For the fics in the list below, further story information may be found at prosficspoilers
(2) Reccers, a short review (1 to 3 sentences) is fine. You are welcome to include a longer critical discussion of a story, but please put it behind an <*lj-cut*> tag.
(And please shout if the date I’ve given you doesn’t suit.)

Hi - the pairing for "From Here to Eternity" is B/D - I don't generally read any other, so it's fairly safe to assume B/D for me!

And I think 22 July should be okay for me, or later if people would prefer more time.

Thanks very much for that and for the pairing info - now edited in.
