Harry Potter punches Loki in the face

On Punching Gods and Absentee Dads by Enigmaris

February 15, 2021 by crystalclear Leave a Comment

  This is a review of a straight-up crossover fanfiction, so beware, all ye who enter here! As you can probably guess from the title, this is a Harry Potter/Avengers crossover.  Now, I read a lot of fanfiction, and I go through them fairly quickly.  I’m not in the habit of writing reviews on the actual works, let alone 250+ words on Cannonball (I know, bad habit).  But this one deserves it!  (Also, it’s not smutty!) After the death of Sirius, Harry receives a delayed […]

A Modern Poldark AU Fanfiction, because why not?

The Distance Between Us by Lucretiassister

December 23, 2020 by faintingviolet 1 Comment

Welcome to my first ever review of fanfiction, are we ready? We’ll try to be, certainly. I read a lot of short form works this year (my AO3 history tells me somewhere in the neighborhood of 600, certainly not all of it good) and I don’t really think I’ll be reviewing any of those, but I am going to review a novel length work that I’ve been following along with since March. I had mentioned in my review of Spoiler Alert, a book where fanfiction […]

The cover artist more than earned her money on this one. Also I need to buy a copy and read it again.

Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade

October 29, 2020 by narfna 20 Comments

Thanks to Netgalley and Avon for the Advanced Reader’s Copy. It hasn’t affected the content of my review. Oh boy, I was so excited when I learned the Brienne/Jaime fandom from Game of Thrones was the main inspiration behind this book. I was already excited about a book centered on a fanfic writer who unbeknownst to her has become good friends with the actor who plays her fictional muse, because he writes fic too, and that just put me over the edge. In hindsight, I […]

“Please tell me people who look like us can have happy endings.”

Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade

October 20, 2020 by faintingviolet 8 Comments

I have been waiting for this book for months and am extremely happy to report that it does not disappoint. This is only my second Dade book (Teach Me was also highly enjoyable), but I can already say my favorite thing about her writing is how relatable and human her characters are. The two leads in Spoiler Alert are at a point of change in their lives – and actively seeking it – and the layers of their lives that push them towards, and in […]

Not too bad for a first novel!

The Other Bennet Sister by Janice Hadlow

October 10, 2020 by crystalclear Leave a Comment

To all of those naysayers who say that fanfiction is not legitimate, I present Exhibit A, The Other Bennet Sister, along with all of the other Pride and Prejudice “variations” or alternate stories.  This is what fanfiction is, taking something and putting your own spin on it.  The only difference is that the copyright has passed on P&P, so people can publish their stories, whereas you can’t really do that yet with Harry Potter or The Avengers or whatever.  (Although if you talk to the […]
