Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Freddy/Zack Author on LJ: naser_ona/ blackorbluepenAuthor Website: Fic JournalWhy this must be read: This girl is able to write something with an ending you don't want, but still make you love her. I think my favorite part of this whole piece is the opening paragraph, because the writing is so dead-on it made me think of Capote. Even though it's short, it reads like literature, which is something not easily found in this fandom. ( Excerpt )You Didn't | |

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Alicia/Freddy Author on LJ: n/a Author Website: FFnet accountWhy this must be read: Okay, so Lawrence is my favorite character. And I can honestly say that this is the best charactization of him I've ever seen. Everybody, really, is flushed out and human. But best of all, this fic is about that horrible time we all like to forget: puberty. So why not relive it with good writing and great characters? Exactly. Dealing With It | |

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Freddy/Summer Author on LJ: naser_ona/ blackorbluepenAuthor Website: Fic JournalWhy this must be read: At first glance, this looks like another cliche School of Rock fic. Somebody leaves, somebody cries, and there is a lot of "I love yous." It's a songfic. On first glance. However, when you look deeper, you can see the truth about this fic. It is definitely written well, which is more than I can say about 99.5857% of the cliche fic in this fandom. But more importantly, the emotions are real, and can be felt. This makes it undeniable.

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Zack/Someone + Freddy/Same Someone Author on LJ: omashiwawaAuthor's Website: FFnet accountWhy this must be read:It's poignant, angsty. Compelling. It's "okay" when the kids are messed up when they're teenagers, because they are teenagers. But this explores what happens when they aren't teenagers anymore, when it's no longer "okay," when the consequences get bigger and badder. Also, a good, surprise ending. And We Didn't | |

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Freddy/Zack Author on LJ: siren_mage/ lady_deathangelAuthor Website: FF.net accountWhy this must be read:Oh dang. Again, I adore [Unknown site tag] so much, but it isn't just this fact that makes this a perfect fic. It embodies all of the good things abotu Freddy/Zack: it is funny, sexy, with a lot of drunkenness and teenage sexuality. Oh, and a heavy dose of profanity. Of course.

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: none, a.k.a. everybody/everybody, humor-fic Author on LJ: uptowngirl03Author Website: FFnet accountWhy this must be read: Definitely crack of the best kind. I rec this because, if you want to know why my job is so hard, it's because I have to swarm through everything uptowngirl03 is making fun of. So read this, it's better, and pretty much the funniest crack in the world. Fo serious. ( excerpt )School of Rock and the Horribly Written Fic | |

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: Freddy/Zack Author Website: FFnet accountWhy this must be read: I mean, of course fluff is fun. All the time. And this fic really captures that "all the time" spirit, as treana takes us through every day of the week, showcasing their feelings for each other. But more importantly, the style is much better than your average ff.net writer, and the repetition makes my little heart flutter. I adore this piece, basically. ( excerpt )Step Off Sunday Morning | |

Fandom: SCHOOL OF ROCK Pairing: n/a, Lawrence-centric Author on LJ: theirishpigAuthor Website: N/A
Why this must be read:
Lawrence is my favorite character, and is also seriously unrepresented in the fandom as a whole. Still, theirishpig seemed to understand this, and wrote a beautiful character-piece about him.
It is an unusual take on what his future might hold. Heavy on the angst, but very real-to-life. And the imagery? Perfect.

It's everything you could ever ask for. ( excerpt )

Emily changed my mind, because this? Cute and sexy and very teenager. Which is pretty much what School of Rock should be. Complex Numbers in Starbucks | |
