Why this must be read:

I love Chloe out in the world, jaded and weary and able to fight but not sure that she wants to. She knew Clark, knew Lex, knew their lies and their truths and is stuck with that knowledge, that history, for better or for worse.

I love the way Kathe writes Chloe. I love Chloe's glittering, hard edges and the sparkle in her eyes (Chloe's, not Kathe's) when she knows something, when she finds some information and it's all hers.

I feel that this Chloe is a natural progression of Chloe - or was, three seasons ago, when it was written. That it clearly diverges from what we know now should not hold you back, however, because this Chloe is still a delight.

Aw, thanks for the rec, babe. This one's all the more special because you pretty much love Chloe for the same reasons that I do.
