So far there's been so many good fics written for the Holiday exchange fests. Or maybe it just seems to me like that because I've been watching more communities. But who cares, really, as long as we get to read good fic. :P

Anyway, here's the second batch of recs from the Holiday fic exchanges: 5 Harry/Draco and 4 Harry/Snape. :D

Don't forget to comment on the fics you've read! :D

Everybody seems to be reccing their favourite fics from all the holiday exchange fests right now, so I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Except that I'm too lazy to do it every few days, so I'll just do it once a week. Anyway, below are some of the best fics written for the various fests. I'm sure I've missed a couple. I haven't had time to read all of them, so there are only Harry/Draco and Harry/Snape fics there. I probably won't have time to read the rest until after New Year's... I am bookmarking them though. :)

The fics are from: harry_holidays, hd_holidays andmerry_smutmas. All posted between 1 December and 8 December. Are there any other fests I should be watching?

Can I just say how lucky the people are who got these fics? :D

Ooooh, and look at this!!!!! It's the first half of the sequel to one of my favourite Harry/Snape fics, In Between Days. I actually squealed when I saw it! Unfortunately I noticed it in the middle of the night, so I haven't had time to read it yet, but I'm going to do that tonight. And I'm certain it'll be great! :D It's like an early Christmas present!!! YAY! :D

Anyway, here's the link: Maybe Someday (NC-17; by atrata). :D

PS: I put a Santa hat on the rhino icon. :D

I have a cold, so I'm feeling icky. And since I know that there are several people on my f-list that are ill too, I thought I'd rec a few stories that are perfect for reading when you're ill. In all of them at least one of the main characters is ill, and they're all bound to make you laugh at least once.

Below you'll find three H/D fics, one R/S fics and one fic with Snape (that's not H/S, but you could read it as pre-slash). So there should be something for everyone. :D

( *cough* )

And I'm actually posting this before 7pm. I really must be ill. :o

Here are another three stories. They're a really nice mix: one bonding fic, one veela, and one from the Old Cliches, New Tricks Fest (hp_cliche). I was planning to write about two of them last week, but I'm incredibly lazy, so here are all of them together:

*I can't wait to read the other stories from the Old Cliche, New Tricks Fest, hehe.*

I've finally braved reading fics dealing with magical beings: werewolves, veelas, vampires, fairies, etc. Of course a lot of them seem to be "somebody (*coughDraco*) is a veela and then they fall madly in love"-type. I've always ignored these stories when I came across them because, well, I found them a bit weird (and their quality is often bad). But now I've decided I wouldn't discriminate anymore, and I'm going to go through some of the lists compiled by other people and see if I found anything I like. So, here are the three Harry/Draco "magical beings" stories that I've enjoyed (so far). :D

Black Story by Jay Tryfanstone (tryfanstone)
Rating: NC-17
Length: ca 25,000
Spoilers: HBP
Summary: "No owls, more than a little magic, and quite a few books. After the war, Snape comes back to Hogwarts."

A wonderful melancholic fic. It's beautifully written and moving. I can't do it justice really - It's wonderful. Go read it. And check out the rest of the author's stories as well. She's a brilliant writer. :)
