What we're reading in TLS this week:

We've been discussing some fics we've been missing and we've been discussing some NEW things we've discovered. Sometimes the authors just need a nudge of encouragement to remind them their fics are missed. Some just need to know they are on the right track and we are here reading their work.  So don’t forget to leave these authors some reviews of encouragement and support. Happy reading!

I know everything about Isabella Marie Swan - the girl is an open book - but what she knows about me could be scrawled on a flyleaf, large and untidy, and still have blank space below it.
