Summary:
Bertie and Jeeves set out for a walk in Hyde Park one day as Bertie attempts to escape yet another beazel. They end up in an entirely unexpected place. Whether or not they manage to maintain their sanity is an open question.

Review:
I adore this fic (and after discovering it, quickly read all the rest of Mice's Jeeves and Wooster stories, which are also awesome), which takes the cracky sounding premise of Jeeves and Wooster getting transported through time to 2009 Seattle and makes it a thoughtful and intelligent character-driven drama. Saved from drowning and taken in by a well-drawn original female character, Jeeves and Bertie have to make their way in the world with very little resources and cope with a very different world than the one they knew. Dealing with illness and injury from their transition to 2009, and the strange new society they live in, as well as the legality of same-sex relationships, the story draws you in to both their heads with alternating POV sections of Bertie and Jeeves.

If you can accept the premise, and don't mind quirky original characters taking on a large role (I certainly didn't; she felt interesting and unique without being a Mary Sue), then this is the story for you. I loved seeing how both Bertie and Reginald found their way in the world, and how their romance developed. Both feel very much in character, despite finding themselves in situations far removed from those in canon. Altogether an excellent, and very long and satisfying, read.

Title: Somewhere I Have Never Traveled
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing: Snape/Harry
Categories: AU (no magic!), Drama,
Length: Medium (7,695 words)
Warnings: deaf!Harry

Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] melora98

Summary: Snape and Harry are Americans, living in Illinois. Snape is a Muggle librarian, and Harry is a deaf patron.

Review: In honor of the AU theme this month, I'm presenting what's easily the most AU fic in my large collection of favorite Snape/Harry fic. Magic is not involved in this fic in any way, shape, or form other than the ravings of an old man. Harry isn't the savior of any world, but a deaf patron in need of help researching one T. Riddle (of the Deatheaters Health & Life Insurance Co.) and Snape is the head librarian who's anything but happy to be Harry's reference guide.

Nonetheless, this fic is put together superbly despite the fact that both Harry and Snape are Americans. Snape may not appear to be in character at first glance, but you need to remind yourself that this fic is wildly AU and all of the incidents that made him so bitter, cruel, and angry never happened. That doesn't stop him from behind a sardonic pain the ass, however. ♥

Please Note: I'd like to take a moment to apologize for not having posted my rec yesterday. I've just recently started a new job and simply have been having trouble keeping up with everything. *sheepish grin*
