Reactions and Reviews

I still have a big pile of stories, written by well-known writers, that I could recommend. Classics that everybody knows who is longer than four weeks in fandom and knows how to do a google search. But it's probably a little boring to rec the same writers over and over and aside from that, I'm sure the recommendations in the upcoming month will cover that.

So I'll spend my last two recs on two relatively new writers, well, new to the TS fandom as far as I can see.

With Caro Dee, I'm a torn soul because I know she *can* write but her characterization doesn't always work for me. *coughcough* In fact, the very first story I read by her didn't work for me at all. Don't worry, she knows that. *g*

I find it amazing that she's the author of one of my most disliked stories as well as of one of my most liked ones.

I would like to rec two stories by her, but since it's one rec per mail I decided on "Hermit Crab"... This little ficlet, "Hermit Crab" just *does* it for me because it describes in very few words how I believe Blair felt in the days after he caught the detective's badge at the end of TSbyBS.

It's a refreshing change from the "Blair is mourning the loss of his academic career" plot and therefore a personal favorite of mine.
