A Rec List [Part One]
Part One: Harry Potter
First of all, I'd like to credit
painless_j, for it is to this place I go when I need my fic fix. Hence, a lot of the fics reccomended here can also be foud there, usually with way better comments written for them... It's also from there that I've gotten the idea of a list of my own (albeit not thematic) and the style of the recs, as I've found that particular style to work very well.
<3 - Loved to bits, a must read no matter the OTP
New - Recently Added
The fics are sorted in an attempted alphabetical order by TITLE (articles excluded, i.e. The Very Secret LiveJournals is placed under 'V').

There were suddenly teeth and lips and tongues and that funny cartilage that keeps everything together, not to mention that dangling thing in the back of your throat that no one remembers the name of.

Post HBP. I'd like a damaged-but-not-broken Harry in the clutches of Death Eaters (ohnoes!) and a caught-up-in-circumstances Draco who's not actually evil. Furtive=awesome. Angst= ♥ .

Book 5: Wind That Shakes the Seas and Stars
Book 6: A Song In Time of Revolution
Book 7: I Am Also Thy Brother
R to NC-17, Harry/Draco, Other, AU, Drama, Angst, Action, Adventure
Summary: From Author Bio: I've finished a long AU series of HP fanfics, the Sacrifices Arc, seeing what happens when I change a few things from canon and follow the consequences of those changes as strictly as possible, while attempting to rework a few common clichés (Slytherin!Harry, Harry and Draco as best friends becoming lovers, Harry having a twin sibling who is thought to have defeated Voldemort, and Snape as Harry's mentor). In particular, I was interested in watching what happens to Harry's psychology if it's the result of certain wartime decisions...and what happens when he finds out about those decisions. On the story front, I want to give the canon characters, and any OC's who appear, fuller and more rounded characterization than they usually get in a story like this.
Comment: This is one big arsed fic arch! A rewriting of the HP books based on classic cliches. Beware of extremley long "books", Spanning from 74,800 words to a whooping 993,100! Before beginning to read, it's reccomended to stock up on food and call in long term sick to you school or work place, cause this baby isn't read in just one night.
