Why this must be read:

This is another 'I don't like X but you made me love it!' story. This time, X stands for heterosexual relationships, something I have to admit I barely read. This series, nonetheless, is one I'm glad I read, because madlori is an amazing, amazing writer that fleshes her stories with a multitude of details and has the ability to write entirely believable case!fics, which is always a plus for me :D. She is also one of those ficcers that can handle a fic with a Main Plot and many Sub Plots, and that subtly drops hints everywhere, giving the reader an 'aha!' moment (actually, many 'aha!' moments) and a sense of fulfillment as the end approaches. This is, definitely, one of my 5 Favorite All Times Criminal Minds fics.

Also, I know I should only rec a fic or series per post, but if you like How to Fight Loneliness, I suggest reading madlori's other story, linked in her fic archive; it is completely amazing too.
