Heated Rivalry

[Clefable]

Anyone watching this on NowTV?

I may have binged

🥵🥵🥵🥵

I love for the Fans. It’s one I’ve re-read. Going to have a look at your other recs too.

I’ve read For the Fans 3 times since Feb! Apparently it’s the gateway book to MM romance and it’s definitely my favourite. I also liked the Rina Kent MM romance books God of Fury and Hunt the Villain but they are mafia based - not hockey.

Klaxon! Rachel Reid is being interviewed this evening on Radio 4’s front row about the HR phenomenon. Just heard it advertised!

Adding those to my list!
I can see why For the Fans is a reread, I definitely will be.

I listened. Straight after the Archers too - oh the scandal! 🤣

Indeed @QueenMabby - I bet that gave a few listeners an unexpected thrill. I expect we’ll see them on this thread soon 😂

Bank holiday weekend upcoming. Time for a reheat for me 😀

I have started the rewatch. First 2 episodes done. It actually hurts my stomach to watch which is ridiculous but it’s such an emotional journey. I forgot how much it physically impacts me.

I’ve reheated so many times but not done a full 1-6 reheat for a while. I have so many AO3 fanfics to read so that’ll be me sorted for the BH weekend.

@QueenMabby I’ve just read the A03 Blowback, I now have images in my head that I don’t think will ever leave, it’s a ride!

@tennissquare is that a recommendation?

im having a bank holiday rewatch. Its been a really long time!

@FurForksSake yes it’s a recommendation.

Blowback is good. Not much plot though - depends on what you like! It’s college AU with a lot of weed.

I'm just finishing up Sarina Bowen - Hockey Guys series (theres four books). And it's been brilliant! Each book has been better than the last in the series. Another solid reccomendation from me.

Thanks for the recommendation. I’m making a list.

Try this fanfic @FurForksSake- odd premise but so good!

My favourite so far aside from wolf bird is one where Shane is an fbi type agent, one where he is an actor and Ilya is a dancer, currently reading one where Shane is the social media manager.

I’ve just opened a tab for a Notting Hill fic where Ilya is the actor and Shane owns the bookstore. Will report back!

@QueenMabby From AO3? Can you post a link please?

Not started it yet so don’t know if it’s any good

Also, zombie apocalypse which I was very dubious about but it’s amazing.

don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s only 3 chapters - it’s nearly 100k words.

oh i've read that zombie apocolypse one - it was really good.

If you like texting fics then I loved Ain't No Hollaback Girl (I can't paste links for some reason).

Almost June and I am still thinking about the damn show!

anyone else still at the cottage? I see production for S2 starts on August!

Yup. Still at the Cottage. There’s no escape!

The zombie apocalypse one was sooooo good.
