Yuletide Recs List (#1 of ?)

[amalnahurriyeh]

It's Yuletide, everybody! Hooray! I think which story I wrote is painfully obvious if you stumble over it, but I don't know if any of you know the canon, so, maybe you won't discover it.

In any case, I received a fabulous story:

Padded Rooms and Stiletto Heels (1006 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Revenge (TV)Rating: General

I was going to ask if you needed to be familiar with the Millennium Trilogy at all. Because I'm not.

[amalnahurriyeh]

I'm not that familiar with them (never finished first book, never saw either movie), and I liked it fine! As long as you get the conceit (Lisbeth is a highly pierced queer anti-social hacker genius, Blomkvist is a journalist who has Solved Problems And Saved People, They Fight Crime while fucking), you're good to go.

[amalnahurriyeh]

Nope--as long as you have a vague clue who Lisbeth and Blomkvist are, you're cool. Frankly, I've only read half the first book (gave it up because I got bored/distracted/busy), and I still was able to follow it. I'm sure it's *better* if you know the books/movie, though...

You've gotta admit, it's a brilliant idea. There are tags having sex.

When did you find the time to read all of this (and finish your fringe_exchange fic)? I've read my story and maybe two others.

Because between Christmas morning and 3pm today, I did not leave the house. Except to shovel snow. I had a lot of time for reading. :)
