09:38 am "A Cappella " by Kit Spooner (Rated T)

Hi, I'm Haina and I will be reccing for Card Captor Sakura this month.


Fandom: CARD CAPTOR SAKURA
Pairing: Eriol/Tomoyo
Length: 52,000+
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] pitofthesloth
Author Website: Kit Spooner on FF.net


Why this must be read: This is one of the first fic I've ever read and it has always been one of my favorites. I think it is the classic story in the Eriol/Tomoyo fanon. The writing is beautiful and, unlike many Eriol/Tomoyo fics out there, the story is believable. Tomoyo goes to England amidst family tragedy to find the one person who actually understands her sadness. If you have been in the Card Captor Sakura fandom and have never read this fic, this is the time to do it! This is a gem.

12:28 pm I sing of arms and of the man fated to be an exile by ladytelemachus (PG-13)
Fandom: BAND OF BROTHERS
Pairing: Liebgott/Webster
Length: 4,959
Author on LJ: [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]
Author Website: The Stacks
Why this must be read:

I love this story's transitions from the past to the present and how the author keeps a some-what tragic feeling to her writing. Post-war Band of Brothers fiction somehow seem to hit me the hardest, and this piece is no different. Watching as the boys have reconcile who they were during the war, while having to pick up the pieces of their respective lives back home; Webster finishing his degree and Liebgott reaching out years after they last spoke. They're both broken in their own ways, and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]'s stark depiction of them in this piece makes it a must-read for any reader.

06:28 pm Never Caught a Glimpse, by Lozenger8 (PG-13)
Hi, I'm Bistokids, and I'm at the wheel of the Life on Mars van for the month of May. Let's kick off with a recent offering from our fandom's greatest ambassador.

Fandom: LIFE ON MARS UK
Pairing: Sam/Gene
Length: 2,850
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] lozenger8
Author Website: Loz's LoM Fic List
Why this must be read:
In all honesty, there isn't a fic of Loz's that shouldn't be read. This particular fic combines 'timey-wimey' elements (Gene meets up with a young Sam Tyler in 1987, there is reference to the canons of both Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, and threads of each are pulled together with delightful expertise), amazingly accurate character voices and a heart-rending poignancy both in the description of the meeting and at the end. It's a simply beautiful piece.

Note: Author warns for prior character death and overtones of dubious consent.
