Got a question: can the stories rec'ed be ones that you don't necessarily like without reservation, but have questions about and would love to discuss?

And also, is there a list to see which ones have already been discussed?
I swear I saw one, but now can't find it.

The first heading on the CI5hq sidebar (CI5hq index - Title, Author, Topic etc) shows all the stories that have been recced/reviewed/discussed at this comm, though some in more detail than others, so that might be a help.

And personally I always thought Reading Room (and the rest of CI5hq) was for discussing all stories, whether you like them or not! You can sometimes have an even more interesting discussion about a story that you don't like, I think... *g*

Thanks! I knew it was somewhere obvious, but apparently I missed it anyhow! *g*

I'll go and see if the story I was thinking of has been discussed yet.

I rec'd Consequences because I hate it. *beg* Really, it was an off the cuff remark and it ended up being a great discussion. I don't think "recommending" is required. I consider it more of a review, bringing out the high and low points of a story. And Consequences is by far not the worst story I've read in Pros, if that's even possible. *ducks and runs*
