Digging out from under... (Feb recs)
This past month or so, I didn't read as much as I'd have liked, and didn't like everything I read, but here are some gems worth digging up and reading and rereading.
Lord of the Rings
The Care and Feeding of Hobbits by Baylor.
Boromir learns about Hobbits in these beautiful slice-of-life stories that capture the characters at their most charming and vulnerable. Wonderful Boromir characterization, and I defy you not to sniffle at least a little in various places.
Laura JV’s site, which houses her wonderful Legolas/Gimli fic. Heart’s Ease, Lied: Lay My Heart Naked and Love Knot are all beautiful evocations of this too-long-ignored (and practically canon!) pairing. Laura JV hits both tone and characterization on the head, and makes Legolas and Gimli come alive in their love and doubt.
Read. Love. Send feedback.
