"You should be reading, yeah"... as sung in the style of the Bee Gees

If you are reading this, it is Monday.

I am back to work.

God, beer me the strength...

Hope your holidays were restful or at least enjoyable.

Mine were restful and at times enjoyable.

Can't complain.

Well, I can.
I am sure I have.
If you follow me on twitter...you probably ignored many of these tweets.

Good on you.

-On to this week's fabulous fan fiction recommendations-

 Through the Oak Door by struckatthesky 

(Work in Progress-All Human-Mature) 

"One kiss sparks the clues, but what do they all mean? Bella dreams of her future self, knowing the life she lives ends in tragedy. How can she change her story when she already knows the ending? The door is there, but where is the key?" 

I haven't been this excited or floored by a story in a long time!

I know I probably come across as a "squee" bunny with all my rec's but this one is special.

I tried to start this story about 8 times. I would read the first paragraph and then just drift away. I don't know why. But last night I read the first 2 chapters, promptly emailed my Tasha that she needed to read this stat, and then proceeded to stay up until 4 am to catch up to the latest chapter.
It's a mystery, it's a fantasy, it's an amazingly touching love story.
I am so in love with this Bella and Edward that I just can't...
I am scared. I am entranced, and for lack of total filter, I am turned on like a firecracker reading this one. Bonus: it JUST got to a critical part, so now is a perfect time to jump on this one.

This reminds me of this story.

For Whom The Bell Tolls by CyraBear 

(Work in Progress- Vamp/Alt Universe-Mature)

"There's a dusty old bookstore in Seattle where the proprietor keeps odd hours and knows the location of every book in his stock. What surprises hide in its stacks?"

This Cullen family is different than the traditional take on the Cullen Family, with some members leaving, joining, or missing at different times than canon. It creates another type of family that Bella is encountering. Edward owns an old bookstore in Seattle, Bella wanders in and no one is the same. The first part of uses erotic poetry to weave Edward's thoughts in the storyline to great effect. 

Oh my.
