Reactions/Reviews
drunktuesdays on Dreamwidth:
Let's be real as fuck, I subscribe hard to anything Entanglednow posts but like, this one killed it for me. Is it wrong that my fav part was when Derek was described as AGGRESSIVELY SPOONING STILES. Don't you feel like there is NO OTHER PHRASE more important to understanding Derek Hale than AGGRESSIVE SPOONING? Get out of my life if you disagree.[2]
Praise from Fail_Fandomanon:
One of my favorite amnesia stories of all time. Of all time![3]
It just hits all my buttons in the best ways, and it's just so much better than almost any other Sterek fic I've read, so it scratches that itch very nicely.[4]
Goodreads users reviewed it 30 times and rated it 118 times, for an average rating of 3.97 out of 5 stars.[5]
