What's Owning You....

 

Hey everyone, the other day I asked you all to let me know some stories that were owning you completely.  Well we got some awesome responses to that question.  We would like to share those responses with you now.  

So here we go...

***

The first fic has been owning a reader is called Bridges

it is written by Savory.

The reader that it has been owning is:   StartTheFantasy aka Leslie

This is what StartTheFantasy had to say about Bridges...

The references to movies and food in this story is outstanding that once you start reading it you aren't able to stop. Also the love for bridges in South Carolina is truly amazing. Edward and Bella are both these amazing individuals in this story, the love that is written between the two makes you heart just explode with joy.

 ***

The next story comes to us by Charmie 

Who says Full Disclosure is owning her.  Full Disclosure is writen by: BettySmith

This is what Charmie had to say about this story:   You know those fics that start off good and slow and then they get you with this beautiful love story that just capture your heart. Well with this story you were given a prologue that showed the future so you knew the couple was in for serious heartbreak. Whenever there is an update I can't help but drop anything just to read it! It's seriously owning me now.

***

Our next story comes from KeyeCullen and the story that is owning her right now is: I Want It Painted Black writen by SaritaDreaming  

This is what KeyeCullen had to say about I Want It Painted Black...

OME where to begin. Well first of Izzy (Bella) is a complete badass! I mean, she is all black hair, viper bites and a "in your face" attitude. And she meets Edward the vampire. Izzy has had an experience with a bad vamp and when she meets Edward in class, she knows immediately what he is and that throws him for a loop. He is admittedly smitten and she couldn't care less.

But Izzy has a reason for being like she is....she has experienced tragedy in her life and her attitude is her protective mechanism. Edward works on breaking through that barrier and pursues her. Finally he realizes that Izzy is his mate, a fact that he won't share with her because she would run if she knew even though she has a problem with admitting that she loves him.

This story has it all.......suspense, intrigue, love, lemons....and Sarita writes so descriptively that you feel like you can "see" the story as you are reading it.

It, definitely, is worth your time to read this story. Just read the first chapter and I, guarantee, you will be hooked

Thank you so much ladies for letting us know the fics you can't put down.  Hopefully this will help a reader to find something new to read.

Story Rec/Review...by DiamondHeart78

Well ladies here we are again, its time for our weekly Fic Recs/Reviews.  So its DiamondHeart78's week to do a review, so here we go!!  I hope you all take the time to check out this fic, I know I will be.

This weeks Rec/Review is called Puddle Jumping by 107yearoldvirgin.  

Two days ago, I decided to pick out one of the numerous fics I had bookmarked, and chose Puddle Jumping by 107yearoldvirgin. Now, if you know me, you know I’ve read a hefty load of fics since I joined the Fandom, and anyone who has a fraction of the reading experience that I have knows 107yearoldvrigin. You might have read any of her other fantastic stories like Into the Mystic, Bad News Bella, and my personal favorite, Eight Days a Week. So when I picked this one, I might have been a bit biased as I already knew I’d probably love whatever she was writing. And as always, I was right.

Puddle Jumping is a story that throws convention out the window, especially when you’re talking Edward/Bella love stories. And you know this going in. She tells you, it’s not your typical love story. It’s not. It’s not. And yet, you still swoon.

I'm Isabella Marie Swan. Eighteen years old. Senior. Short in stature. Skinny fat.
Brown hair and eyes. And this is my story.
If you haven't figured it out already, this isn't your run-of-the-mill fairy tale love story.
It's not even a paranormal romance.
I wouldn't even categorize this much of a romance at all.
Because I'm not the kind of person to fall in love.
And neither is the guy I'm head over heels for.

I don’t like to give much away about the story, and I fear if I talk too much here, I will. So allow me to be cryptic.

Her Bella is one of my favorites, but then again, 107yearoldvrigin has a knack for writing great Bellas, all of which are usually spunky and witty, but with a lot of heart, and this is no exception.

Bella tells her story directly to the reader, and you’re immediately sucked in as if you’re talking to her at a Starbucks somewhere. It’s all told in retrospect, where her current predicament finds herself looking back at the entire period of time from when Edward enters her life as children, to high school.

The story begins with a young 10-year-old Bella babysitting a 9-year-old Edward. Don’t ask me why a 10-year-old is babysitting a child merely a year younger than her, but according to the author, this is something she did all the time as a kid. That part was a little weird for me, but I let it slide.

Edward isn’t your typical child, he’s exceptional in every way. Bella understands this immediately, from the moment he saves her life as children.

Because of Bella’s antics (I mean, what do you except? She’s ten), Edward’s mother cuts Bella out of Edward’s life for several years until she visits an arts and crafts festival. Edward is there with his mother, selling his artwork. He’s awkward and a prodigy, and without giving away too much, I’ll let you figure out what his deal is when you read.

Bella is instantly taken by him and she takes it upon herself to help him socialize, falling for him hard in the process.

Luckily, this fic updates almost every day or couple of days, and the pacing is just perfect. Sometimes when I read inner monologue, I find myself skimming when the character gets too wordy. Not here. I love reading every thought that comes from Bella’s mind, and she’s not repetitious at all.

And I have to say, as an art teacher, I come across students like Edward all the time, and they are a complete joy to teach and interact with. We can learn so much from understanding how people like Edward think and how they process emotions, relationships, and words.

Give it a read, I promise you’ll thank me later.
