Our favorite fic re-reads

Sometimes when real life gets crazy, you just need to find comfort in a favorite fic. We asked the TLS admins to share some of their favorite re-reads that were still available to read on a website. Some of our re-reads overlapped and others made us plan group read-a-longs for later. The collection is varied, but there's a little something for everyone. We hope you enjoy them as much as we continue to!
