I am almost certain that fanfics will be a recurring theme on here so consider this volume 1 of infinity. I wish I could say that I have been into fanfic since my Myspace days, but I can't. I was too busy being a menace to all who knew me to participate in the wonders of fan-fiction. However, there is no time like the present, so let me show you what I'm reading this month!
Fix Your Attitude by Kassanovella
Synopsis: You’re an engineer, stationed at Starkiller. You’re desperate for recognition in your career, but issues with your assignment end up making you the clean-up crew, instead. Your annoyance with Kylo Ren lands you into some hot water. How many messes is he going to make you responsible for?
So this was the first fanfic I ever remember reading back in 2020 when I first started leaning into TikTok as a way of dissociating.
It is Reylo and reader-insert, as it should be! You can add it on GoodReads and it's super spicy, so prepare yourselves. I fucking love Kylo Ren (and Adam Driver in general, but I am trying to be chill about it)
Manacled by SenLinYu
Synopsis: Harry Potter is dead. In the aftermath of the war, in order to strengthen the might of the magical world, Voldemort enacts a repopulation effort. Hermione Granger has an Order secret, lost but hidden in her mind, so she is sent as an enslaved surrogate to the High Reeve until her mind can be cracked.
This is Dramione fanfiction + Handmaid's Tale and it has ruined me entirely. It is extremely dark, I do not say this lightly. As dark as it is, it is also beautiful not only in storyline and execution but the artwork too. At one point, I turned a page and was met with a piece of artwork and started screaming, crying, throwing up.
I finished this a couple weeks ago, I am trying to bully Hannah into reading it too and I am seriously considering a re read. Yes, already. You can add it on GoodReads too!
Peeta's Games by Igsygrace
Synopsis: The Hunger Games from Peeta's point of view. This follows the original work as closely as possible and much of the dialogue is taken from the original and owned entirely by Suzanne Collins.
After I finished Manacled, I somehow found myself on Hunger Games TikTok? I wasn't mad about it, I love The Hunger Games. I first read them back in 2012 when I was a stay at home mom of 2 under 2. I remember tearing through these after the babies went to bed and loving every page.
Fast forward to current day and a few weeks ago I decided to re read the series. Not long after I finished the first book, this fanfic came across my FYP. It is The Hunger Games but told from Peeta's POV... Sign. Me. Up.
This one isn't explicit (thank god, these are children) and I am only a few chapters in but I am excited about it. I can never have enough Peeta content. Oh and, you can add this to your lists on GoodReads!
Breath Mints Battle Scars by Onyx_and_Elm
Synopsis: For a moment, she's almost giddy. Because Draco Malfoy's been ruined by this war and he's as out of place as she is and — yes, he has scars too. He's got an even bigger one. She wonders whether one day they'll compare sizes.
Ok, this is my latest Dramione download and I haven't started it yet but I trust that it's good. I mean, look at the cover, look at the quote! If I enjoy it half as much as I enjoyed Manacled, I will be thrilled.
This one is marked as explicit and takes place in their 8th year at Hogwarts. I am stressed and excited. This one is also listed on GoodReads, love that for us. The artwork for this one is gorgeous too.
If you have any fanfics you've read and LOVED, please, I beg you, send them my way.
I am working on a blog post about the best ways to read fanfic but in the meantime, go to the fanfic page, click "entire work" at the top, then click download and choose your format. That should let you download the fic and import it into your Books or Kindle apps. Happy reading!
