Oooh! Book recs! Gonna be lots of YA on this list....
I could. not. put. down Kindred by Octavia Butler. Genuine masterpiece and so very underrated.
Every time I pick up The Blue Castle I end up staying up all night to finish it. Same with Mara: Daughter of the Nile.
Ella Enchanted is compulsively readable AND THE BEST. Chime by Franny Billingsley.
Those are the ones that come to mind at the moment. If I think of others, I'll get back to you!
There are several shows I love but that I don't do anything fannish about excep reblogging pretty pictures on tumblr: The Good Wife, Happy Endings, Game of Thrones. I don't really forsee myself doing anything fannishly with them, but I like them lots!
Can you think of any character/pairing that you normally wouldn't be drawn to but somehow they overcame that to weasel their way into your heart (e.g. a character that fits a trope your normally don't care for but you love them anyway)?
Victor and Sierra on Dollhouse. A soulmates ship? Usually I hatehatehate that, but I love it with them. Troy on Community. I don't know what archtype to fit him into, but whatever it is, I feel like he exceeds it.
