Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing: Harry/Snape
Categories: humor, Harlequin, Marriage of Convenience
Length: long
Warnings: Harry's underage. Sort of. I think. It's mentioned a couple of times that he's a teenager, but I kept forgetting that fact because at no point are we told exactly how old he is and he acts like an adult.

Review:
In this fic written before book seven, Harry decides he needs a martial fealty spell to insure that Snape is loyal (what with the whole murdering Dumbledore incident). Unfortunately Harry is an idiot, and manages to say 'marital' rather than 'martial'. Heh. Thus begins one of the best marriage of convenience fic I've ever read, with the very best original character I've ever seen: Mabel, the chatty senile viper that likes to hang out in tea cups and chases her own tail.
Most marriage of convenience fics are wonderfully angsty drama-fests, often with a side of blushing virgin. Not so If This Be Error. Instead, you get a highly irritated Snape, a perpetually horny (and trying to hide it) Harry, a gaggle of Order members who manage to be both horrified and titilated (depending on the member in question). Oh, and a zombie. Come on, how can you go wrong with that? A great fic for those who want their marriage of convenience with a twist.

Review:
Jim's away on a conference, so of course Blair gets kidnapped. Again. For the fifth time this year. Which is probably why he's handling the whole hostage situation better than the kidnapper is, especially once they get cornered by all of Major Crimes. Oh, and then Jim comes back from the conference early.
Karen always writes fun, snappy, satisfying little stories, and this is one of her better ones. Cute and fluffy and laugh-out-loud funny, Getting There is perfect if you only have a few minutes to read and want to make the most of them.

Title: Life in Little Canada
Fandom: SGA
Pairing: John/Rodney
Category: humor, drama
Length: medium

Author's Summary: There are some people who enter a guy's life and screw it up forever. John Sheppard did this to Rodney McKay--not forever, but periodically.
Review:
Rodney loses his job at the university and becomes a bounty hunter. No. I'm serious. And guess who he gets to hunt down for his first job? None other than the infamous John Sheppard, who supposedly killed someone (::And OMG! This is [little] CANADA! No one gets killed, EVER!::). It's fun to see people make fun of Canadians. ;p
This is a humorous little ficlet with wonderful characters, funny lines, and a clever plot. It's nothing to be taken seriously, but this would be a great way to spend 30 min of your time while waiting for dinner to cook itself. ;p
Go read and have fun.
