embarrassment of riches

Started reading HP again and wow, I forgot what it was like being in a fandom that hits the quadfecta--lots of long fic, lots of fic, lots of fic in my pairing(s), lots of well written fic ( Read more... )

random, ramble, smallfandoms, yuletide, hp

hey, C! the hp fandom is amazing! unfortunately, with so much fiction, it's hard to know where to start! got any more recs for me, pretty please, lovely friend?

I really love Harry at Hogwarts-type stories. long, plotty, complete fics, of course. I especially love unusual creature features (unless they're really well done, vampire, werewolf and veela stories just don't interest me that much). any and all directions would be greatly appreciated!

*rubs hands together* It's been a while. I'll have to dig up my recs list. Right now I'm running through this

and this

furiosity's stuff is kind of dark.

Mahaliem has hd recs too. http://mahaliem.livejournal.com/tag/recs

Do you have preferences pairing wise, up to a certain book, canon compliant, dark or light, angst or humor etc...? A lot of the recs I have are older and totally jossed by now but I've been periodically keeping up.

oooooooo, recs! thank you! as for pairing: harry/draco mostly definitely. they are my otp. severus/remus, sirius/remus, ron/hermoine. . . but only if these pairings appear as side romances to the main harry/draco couple. weird, I know. like I could never read an entire story only about r/hr but I have to have them in the story with h/d ( ... )

I'm absolutely the same way about the side couples. Here are a few more. My fic is scattered everywhere, but these were actually organized as a rec at one point. You've already found Beren who I adore and a few others.
