Reccer's comments: I have to declare an interest in this series, having joined the beta team with the recent third instalment, but I did that because I loved it! This is an intense, emotionally nuanced portrayal of a developing romantic relationship between Sherlock and John, which happens to have BDSM and drug use (and classical music) among its main themes. Whether or not you have an interest in any of the above, this series is outstanding - it’s for anyone into S/J who likes to think and has a taste for elegant writing.
