In this very special edition of Fic Rec Monday, I'm sharing my fifty favorite fics from the last year. Like last year, I discovered a lot of great older fics, but this list contains only fics posted or finished in 2016 (no works in progress). There are a handful of fics from the last week of 2015 for logistical reasons. ( Here we go: 50 fics in 16 fandoms. )

I've meant to put together a solely Harry Potter or Harry/Draco rec list for ages and finishing my full reread of the series plus the hilarity that is The Cursed Child finally kicked me into gear. So here you go. Fifty of my favorite Harry/Draco fics. Literally none of these fics are Cursed Child compliant. Just FYI.

( you're going to have SO MUCH READING TO DO )

It's our second Fic Rec Monday in the Favorite Authors Project, where I put together a rec list with works by specific fic writers instead of by theme or fandom. This week we're talking about thehoyden, who has been writing awesomeness in all your favorite fandoms (okay, maybe not all of your favorite fandoms, but a lot of mine) for forever. They're also a semi-regular guest on the /Report, one of my favorite podcasts (coming at you with fangirl awesomeness since 2011).

I'm sharing ten of my favorite fics by thehoyden. (Keep in mind these are just my favorites. They also fic for fandoms I don't read often, like: Hikaru no Go, Naruto, Due South, Inception, etc.)

I just got back from a California vacation and two days were spent at the happiest place on Earth (Disneyland! I went to Disneyland!). In celebration of my trip I'm reccing 24 of my favorite Disney fandom fics.
( To all that come to this happy place: welcome. )

You know what's super impressive? Turning in your dissertation! Elizabeth, the evil mastermind behind the booktube channel Books and Pieces, accomplished this greatest of quests (so fiendishly difficult the document in question was dubbed Dolores after that grimmest of Harry Potter villains) last week. In a fit of celebratory fervor, I offered to put together a rec list of her choice. She asked for Agent Carter recs.

Oh, Elizabeth, how did you know about my unending love of Margaret Carter? And have I mentioned I'm still a little miffed the MCU totally missed the opportunity to give one of their heroines a cracktastic backstory? (She ran away to join the French Resistance as a teenager, fell in love with Steve, then developed amnesia so Steve could have storylines without her and she was sent home to live with her parents. SERIOUSLY.) Right. Moving on.

I'm taking a little creative license with this list request (because I am both the best and worst) and chose fics that involve Peggy being awesome. Some of these technically aren't Agent Carter recs (a few were written pre-show or don't involve show canon or are just so wildly AU I don't think they really count as AC recs), but they're all delightful. So congratulations, again, on vanquishing Dolores. May she languish in Azkaban for the rest of her days (or until you decide to publish). Here are 25 awesome!Peggy fics for your reading pleasure.
( *singing* everything is awesome! )
