Hey all! ^_^

Next Monday nominations will begin in earnest, but for now, I'm here to poke everyone and ask have you been reading...? ^__^ For those of us who fell behind on our reading, it can be quite overwhelming. Believe me, I'm right there with you. Sometimes I don't even know where to begin. So in an attempt to help each other out, let's have a BIG OLD RECCOMENDATION POST!

Is there a story you read this past year that you absolutely loved? One you kept coming back to or maybe just recently discovered that is an absolute must read? Maybe there's a story with a pithy amount of comments that you don't understand why more people didn't find and gush over? Tell us!

Share with us the stories that it would be an absolute crime for us not to peruse before nominations begin. It's a great way to get some lesser known stories a little recognition and it would make a good starting point for anyone doing catch up reading.

But don't just give us an author and title; tell us why you loved these story. What emotions did they evoke in you? What technical aspects wowed you? Why should we be reading them, too?

As a reminder, here's The list of stories eligible for nomination. and The proposed 2010 nominations categories for perusal.

Thanks, everyone! :D

Wow! Thanks for the rec, Sun. ^_^

There have been so many wonderful fics this year, but these stood out for me...

"Memorial South Park" by Clayangel - Anything from Clay is a treat, but this fic is awesome...so dark and gritty.

"Autumn" by Sungreen70 - Her best fic, in my humble opinion. This is so beautifully written and continues to move me to tears every time I read it. Wonderful.

"Half Empty, Half Full" by Draconica_nova - I've grown to love the Brad/Chip pairing, and this is a very poignant glimpse at their complicated relationship.

"Asking Too Much" by Jie_jie - I love everything she writes, but this really hit the angsty nail on the head for me.

"Miasma" by Goblover - Another angsty rec, but this was just awesome. Wonderfully written, and completely heartbreaking.

That's it for now, but I may well be back with more. Hmm, I seem to have gone for all the angsty fics! XP

*hugs* Thank you for the rec! I am nodding my head in agreement to several of the ones you listed, and rushing off to read the ones I've missed.

Totally. I can honestly say that, for me, it was the best fic I read all year, because it affected me so deeply. Just incredible.

I don't know! I guess it's because angsty fics evoke stronger emotions, so they stay with you longer. ^_^
