Wow, I haven't updated this in forever!
So I'm back thanks to my roommate who made me fall in love with this website once again (YAY ASB!)
Check out my favorites, they're seriously the best and if you have a recommendation for any story please let me know...
My philosophy with stories is that: once you read a story, you fully immerse yourself into the plot, falling in love with the characters. If the author is good, the characters become almost life like, they become your friends and you read about your friends life. That's why it's really hard for me to finish a story, because it's like saying goodbye to a friend that you won't see for awhile. Does anyone else see that or am I just crazy?
A good example of a story that really allows you to get involved with the characters is the story "Queen of Glass". With close to 90 chapters, the reader because extremely involved in the plot. She cries and laughs with Celena (sp?) and the rest of the characters. If you're sentimental I would suggest it though, because it's hard to let go. I went into a 2 day depression because it was so touching. (Seriously I cried in the middle of Books-A-Million, my friend Philip was like "wtf is wrong with you?" and I started ranting about...well read it and you'll see).
My new fave author though is Myrika she's seriously a really great writer and if you're looking for fun, creative and intelligent stories you found the author (she's a reading nut!) I have yet to read all her stories but "Reason and Romance Redux" and "Trouble Starts With a Q" are EXCELLENT stories, you'll love Alex, Adrian, Vaughn, Travis, Devon, Abdullah and, my personal favorite, Quentin Maxwell :D
So enjoy!
