Reactions and Reviews

Why this must be read:

Because it's the perfect blend of angst and realistic happy ending, set post CoTW and including RayV and Stella's wedding, where there is poor communication and pining and making each other unhappy and not talking about it. Because sometimes RayK an Fraser manage to talk about things in canon, but then there is everything that goes unsaid that you just know could screw things up when you have to make big decisions about which country to live in and making a commitment to someone and just HOW DO YOU HUMAN. And, appropriately enough for a story about not talking about things, the writing is beautifully subtle and understated and lets you see all this without telling you everything.

Oh and it contains this line: "Scotch, neat, in as big a glass as you can give me without me looking like the jilted ex-husband." which is surely worth the admission price on its own? [1]
