Pssstttt!!! I'm being held hostage at Aunt God She's Awful's house. So don't tell her that I'm nipping over here to quickly point out some goodies!
I had been sad that
hp_holidaygen didn't run this year but goodness knows when I would have found the time to read anymore. The holiday fests are overflowing with great entries again even a bit of gen at my favorite fest,

Marginalia (A Story about Stories) by
magnetic_poleSummary: In the village of Arabel's Raven, there is an ancient Library that contains the collected wisdom of the wizarding world. It holds books detailing every known spell and curse, treatises on Dark Creatures and mysterious ailments, and all the most noble tales of magical courage and wisdom and love. This tale, however, is not one of them.
What is this story? An enchanting fairy tale told by an intriguing narrator, a bit of "missing" canon and a sly reference to certain stories written in the margins of books.....
Another "missing" moment and a wee tale set in a library.
Ex Libris by anonymous at
hoggywartyxmas provides a peek at Irma Pince and how the many of the treasures of the Hogwarts library are saved from Voldemort during the Carrow's rein at Hogwarts. Do check out this gem of a ficlet!
I'm already reading about tipples and New Year's Eve celebration plans. How about reading
Reflections in Liquid to see the beverage of choice of several of the denizens of Hogwarts? Wonderfully reflective of their characters besides!
And a bit of art to round out this entry. &hearts
leochi is on holiday and she's been posting more stunning fanart again! Check it out and leave a word or two of encouragement?
Seafaring Draco,
Togetherness and
Louis Weasley are especially stunning!
