AMP133: Two more days 'til the crazy ends..... just gotta get through two more days.....
So, I'm going to cheat a little, instead of writing up my usual "This is why I loved this story, let me tell you all my feelings" podfic posts. Rather, I'm going to post an insane number of podfics, in an attempt to get ahead of my perpetual backlog this Amplificathon, and limit my squee to one sentence per podfic. They might be LONG sentences, but....just one sentence each. If you're ever in the mood to ask me for more elaboration - because Lord knows I have lots of feelings - feel free to drop a line at the end of the post, and I'll be more verbose.
