Nightlock Recs: Science vs. Romance AU Fics
nightlockfics.blogspot.comYet more love for fnurnfur’s Range of Motion!
…AND a “Threshing Floor” nod! I love you, forthegenuine!!! A particular thanks for the line:
I have two fics that deserve honorable mention… and not in the “honorable mention” that is the consolatory, thanks-for-playing way, but the I’m honored to mention these pieces because they are superb in every way kind.
I have a good friend/co-worker who read “The Threshing Floor” and was severely disheartened to learn there were no prizes for Prompts in Panem. ;D (Not that I expected one, mind, but she really thought there should be winners!)
Not to mention, I’m delighted that someone “got” “porchwood, née Mejhiren.” ;D
Book Review of V. Arrow's 'The Panem Companion'
nightlockfics.blogspot.comFrom the same publisher that brought us The Girl on Fire, comes a new book by V. Arrow, The Panem Companion. You might know V. Arrow (aimmyarrowshigh from Tumblr and LiveJournal) from her gripping works of Hunger Games fanfiction and her contributions to various discussions about the trilogy. In her new book, she discusses a range of topics that are elemental and controversial, as well as topics you might not even have considered before… (via Nightlock Recs)
Hurts So Good AU Fics: Not to be mistaken for the Rachel McAdams film, "The Vow" is Ro_Nordmann's reinterpretation of the 2011 film, The Debt

Title: “The Vow” (Katniss/Peeta, Katniss/Cato)
Author: Ro_Nordmann
Rating: M
Summary: After thirty years, now I am an old woman, with regrets of the mistakes I’d made in my life. More than anything for accepting that vow on Independence Day. It changed our lives forever, making us into heroes we were not; dooming us onto unstoppable damnation.
Recommendation: Not to be mistaken for the Rachel McAdams film, “The Vow” is Ro_Nordmann’s reinterpretation of the 2011 film, The Debt, starring the incomparable Helen Mirren. If you’ve seen the film, this story follows the plot pretty closely, but to me, this cross-over makes sense on so many levels. Both have elements of a rebellion driven by a dictator, and a complicated love triangle between broken people. You will also see some minor characters in unexpected roles. What I like most in this one-shot are the interactions between Katniss and Peeta. They are painfully poignant, even though (but perhaps made especially because) the plot and pairings of this story are far from canon-compliant.

OH! And totally off topic: I quickly mentioned you in my post at Nightlockfic Recs (nightlockfics dot blogspot dot com) again, because you’re super amazing! :)
Awwwww! Thanks for this! I posted the link on my page, in part from blushing self-promotion - but I love fnurfnur’s “Range of Motion” too! :D
