Halloween Special.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN. 

Sorry, I had to get that out there. You may or may not celebrate this holiday due to age, religion, etc, but in my mind, the Cullens do. 

In most fics they dress up as the typical ironic vampire, which is fine. And most of them have Nessie in them, too. Again, great. So without further ado...

1. Very OOC-out of character, but enjoyable: Halloween Disappointment
2. A Cullen Halloween 
   
3. Love the Angela witch idea...Witch's Halloween
4. Halloween Twilight
   
5. Halloween Costume Couplings
   

Well, like I said before and now once again, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

FACT.

Fact: I think I haven't posted all week. 

Fact: I finished Waxing Crescent (Needs. A. Sequel.)

Fact: I will not post tomorrow.  

Fact: You should read this cute story inspired by Halloween:

Pumpkin!

Being M.I.A. Is Fun, You Should Try It.

Toldya I am no good at this. I will try. Pinky swear?

Moving on, I am almost done with reading Waxing Crescent! Have you read it yet? I will swear again, you have to. 

Today, the theme is AH, or all human, and a few stories focused on Bree. 

Le's get to the AH first. Now, reading these are like reading just a regular book, no sci-fi or anything. It's an enjoyable break.

• Two Can Tango

I gave you tis to begin with, since it is hard to get used to the characters as human beings. For me, at least, it is. 

Bree second. Bree, I honestly think the actress they picked for you is all wrong. The Jodelle girl looks younger than 14-16 while you are older than that. Aside from those facts, we readers need to know your backstory. Did Victoria bribe you with candy for you to come with her, like a creeper would? Or what if you didn't die in Eclipse? Find out:

1. Bree's Story
   
2. Mirror
   
3. Struggle (Sequel to Mirror)
   

Bonus Post

Because I feel like it.

Because I read this:

A Night Without Stars

Because I needed my readers to know the emotions going through my head when Edward left in the books. This is what I felt. This is what you will feel.

How powerful was that? It's one of those stories that moves you.

Like I Said.

First of all, I would like to thank EliseShaw for giving me feedback on my mini-review of her stories. Go check them out. 

Secondly, I said I was going to do a Character Spotlight-wrong day, I know-today on Riley or Bree. This one is on Riley.

Luckily we have the chance to see Riley's and Victoria's "relationship" form in the Eclipse movie. Riley is a really hard character to find fics for on FF.net. There aren't enough of them, which are needed. Hopefully with the up and coming movie, he will have more. In the movie he is describe as a collegge kid, but he could easily be a typical teen like Bella. 

But, to keep yourself busy during that time period, read these:

• Endless Night

That one is not the only one worth reading, just the only one that I enjoyed.

Tomorrow, I will find some good Bree ones!

Catching Up Is Hard To Do.

First off, you should read this so you can understand the following obsession (not needed, but I like this one): Smiling Through The Pain

I told you I was going to be busy. So much for feeling like a real blogger. 

I have been wondering why I am so fascinated with Breaking Dawn. I am, which is weird because it is my least favorite book in the saga. 

Could it be that I never want it to end? Or that with the new characters introduced, I want to know more?

Every time I re-read the book, I learn new things. I understand the imprinting process better and why Rose is the way she is. But I want to know more. 

Digging deep into things is a hobby of mine. I analyze everything in my path. 

What about Garrett? Or the Romanians? Siobhan?

I need to know more. 

And FanFiction let's me do that. Though, it isn't accurate compared to what the author of the real book has planned out, it is close enough. 

With these movies, it give you an insight into the history. 

And hopefully with Breaking Dawn being made, I will know the facts.

I have tried and tried again to find fics about Stefan and Vladimir, but there are only a few on FF.net! Very upsetting, they need their love too!:

• The only one worth reading is The Six Stages of Grief

Garrett, my favorite nomad. Oh, I love him. He is just a vampire that I get. He likes to go against his nature and Kate, his new mate from Denali, taught him that.  To remember him better, read Garretts Speech in BREAKING DAWN,too

All of these stories about their love you just have to read:

1. Follow You Anywhere
   
2. Following After You
   
3. (bad spelling) Fighting in the snow
4. Burn
   

Siobhan! I imagine her so well in my mind. She looks like SMeyer, but with red-hair-of course, she is Irish-and the brightest ruby eyes ever. 

Her power is possibly on of the coolest, it is the ability to motivate things to happen. he way it works is easy, if she want it, she gets it. Her coven is pretty darn cool, too. 

With that, I am envious. 

Let's know more about her (and her coven):

1. Fires
   
2. Hope Is All We Have Left
   

And, that's all. I will have to do another one of these soon. One with Bree or Riley? Hmm...

And Laziness Continues...

So I like doing this whole lazy thing posting mostly one-shots and all, but you need a good long story to read as well. To make things easy, I will give you both. First giving you the one-shots (which will have the synopsis), then the story. 

And continue...

1. First Day of School Esme has a hard time getting Edward out the door for school... C-
   
2. If you didn't like the beginning of You've Kept Me Waiting this is a good one-shot for you...Resist B+
3. Now We Wait Carlisle reunites with Edward after Renesmee’s birth. Missing moment from chapter 19 of “Breaking Dawn.” Short and sweet father and son scene. B+
   
4. The Talk     Carlisle, I'm 103 years old. Do you really think I need to be getting the sex talk from you?
   

Okay, now on to the full book-like stories...

I read A Coming Of Age, the second No Longer Alone story before this one [it's AMAZING]. I haven't read the first FF but, the second is awesome. I love the whole Carlisle/Esme thing. They are such a cute couple. 

No Longer Alone: 

Carlisle and Esme's relationship develops gradually from the first day he sets her leg in Columbus until their wedding ten years later. Their love grows slowly as they learn to open up to each other and heal from past hurts.

A Coming of Age: 

Set 5 years after Carlisle and Esme's marriage, the continuing story of their love and growth and the internal struggles of Edward as he makes the decision to leave the family and try a different way of life.

And if you liked those, read the deleted scenes from them (has lemons): Carlisle and Esme: The Deleted Scenes

A First Time For Everything.

I have never posted this early, which is awesome. I feel like a real blogger now. 

So, I am doing the whole 'Family Moments' thing with Bella and her parents today. Most of these will be fluffy and cute, but mostly cheesy.

No ratings today, so take the risk. 

1. Tough Love
   
2. Can't Trust Anyone in This World
   
3. The Talk
   
4. Missing New Moon Scene
   
5. Pride
   

Which one was your favorite? I liked them all, but if you ever want to read them again go to our new rec. community on FF.net. This has all of the past stories that I have recommended. 

Part II Of My Laziness.

You know what I just realized? I am running out out good FFs to post. I need more time on my hands, but it's too late for that since I found a few more. 

And with that, it is smut time! And it has a surprise cock-tease:  Gone Fishing

1. This is disgustingly good smut that is a little crazy. You'll know why when you read it... B Friday Night Fun
2. And speaking of crazy (in a good way), Payback has a fun plot line. Though it makes me feel like Bella is getting raped. But this saying applies: It's not rape if you want it! A
3. I told you I was doing dirty smut today...Will Work Fer Smut A-
4. Awkward Ness/Jake smut, anyone? House Warming B-

So, that is all. I have been searching for some more of these so stay tuned!

All This Month Is Going To Be Hectic. PART I

I've go so many things to get done in my personal life. It's October so I have to go to Halloween parties and such. And like I said before, life is hard. 

Anyway, with all these problems I will do yet another mass post. I mean MASSIVE.

Twenty recs. this one week. I'll do probably six or seven more tomorrow. I will post more than that this week too, but I like this idea. Part II will come tomorrow! 

1. The most amazing FF ever! I swear! Alice and Jazz... A+ You've Kept Me Waiting
2. This was the first fic I ever read... A A Cullen Continuation
3. A great backstory... A Huilen's Story
4. These details help understand the imprinting process B First Imprint (Sam's Story)
5. Alice and Jasper One-shots! B Reading Between the Lines
6. Emmett and Jasper have fun with Bella B- Oops, he did it again!

I Just Realized How Much I Suck.

I do, so bad. I have no clue why I even do this blog. Yes, I do. It's for my love of Twilight, but I can't even keep up with that. Life is hard. 

 

So I will do a mass post. I think this might show how lazy I actually  am. Especially since I'm not going to tell you how much I like the FF by giving a review. 

 

Posting five of these is easier this week.  Most of these, probably all of them, will star Emmett. And now all funny FFs in no particular order...

1. Bella and Emmett's Songs  B
2. Toke It Up A
   
3. Vampiric Peaches B-
   
4. A trashy and tacky Emmett crackfic C+
   
5. Babysitting B-
   

Chocolate Please!

Syrup Anyone? is a nice fluffy one shot created by Daddy's Little Cannibal. It is nice and sweet. Though I do usually think Edward is reserved, I did enjoy seeing his wild side. 

I looked into this one and wondered if since Forks is a small town and Charlie will definitely find out about this what would he think? You decide in the comments section. 

All I know is that I am craving some chocolate milk right about now! 

Overall Score:

Sad With Great Stories

Yesterday I learned that one of my favorite fic writers died earlier this year in a car accident. I am really upset. She wrote an amazing amount of one-shots--all of which are my favorites. So for the rest of the week, I am rec-ing her fics. 

The first one I read of hers is Sex Education With Emmett, and will be the first one I will rec.

The title is basically what the story is. Sex Ed. Like the author said, it just HAD to be done. Daddy's Little Cannibal made all the right moves when writing this. She wrote the characters involved exactly like they would act. 

Overall Score: 

A+(+)

 

Making This Quick

Okay, so this is my last make-up post so I have to make this quick. All this week I will not be following the schedule (see right) because life is rough. However, I will still be recommending FFs. 

I just found a Leah story focused on her love life. I have only read one chapter of this, The War, and so far so good. I like that in BD she got more attention because she deserves it even if she can be a bitch. Haha, pun (bitch? dog? wolf?). 

Overall Score (so far):

B+

Short Ness Stories Are My Fav.

Yes, they are. People sometimes say they hate Nessie. They obviously haven't read her fanfics. And if you know any, recommend them to me at melissaisatwilightlover@gmail.com. 

First Period written by ShesInLoveWithTheBoy is ADORABLE. And funny. The whole adolecent stage is awkard as it is, but being halfvamp makes it worse. I enjoyed this one shot bunches...

Off to eat supper. 

Overall Score:

A-

Okay, I honestly know this is not smut, and I hand out many apologies. But, it is dinnertime where I come from so I have to make this quick. Agreed? Let's get to it. 

Home Again stars a non-canon character, Ellie, who is Jake's cousin. Paul might or might not imprint on her. Just pretend that she is Rachel. That's what I do. 

This fic is short -seven chapters-, but worth it. Trust. 

I have to post two more things so this is quick. Many more apologies.

Overall Score:

B-

How About A Song?

I am officially a failure at life. Seriously, how long has it been since I posted?! This one is dedicated to the Friday that I missed. 

To make up for my suckish-ness, I will show you one of the only songs that has ever made me cry. It's by Nevershoutnever! and is called Hummingbird. I won't be doing this all the time, but since I am in the mood...and the New Moon soundtrack's songs have been released! One song sounds like the Beatles a bit, so it wins FOREVER. End rant. 

So, who's POV from Twilight could this be? Bella's after New Moon? Jakes? Or even Alice's after she found out what she is?!

Fanfic time.Emmett and Alice To Church, could be the funniest fic I have read so far. I love it because it is hilarious in a blasphemous way. I couldn't handle all the laughs. Nowhere and Quizno's could be a literary genius, just sayin'.

Overall Score:

A+

Character Spotlight: Charlie

Charlie and his dry sense of humor never fails to amaze me, even in fanfics. And, plus I love his 'stache. Which is good, because I am pretty sure that he has one in The Night Bella Told Charlie authored by lovetowritedotcom. She is some kid, 12-13 year old, and I am impressed! I couldn't do that well then...well, I could, but still. 

The night Bella told Charlie. Charlie’s point of view (by the way, Edward never tells Bella what Charlie is really thinking because it would hurt her feelings).

It's so funny! Except the end where everything is in italics and parentheses. I hated that part, it ruined the moment. Intentionally trying to be funny in fics bothers me. Charles is on my top ten favorite character list, so of course I enjoyed this. Did you? 

Overall Score:

B

Don't forget to check out the other Character Spotlight Thursday featuring Emmett!

One Shot Day...

Thank God, because I love one-shots, as I have said before. So, I was wondering how Bella's Lullaby came along, then I found this little gem, Lullaby. 

It was really nice to see how happy Esme was to find out about Edward's love. The story, if you could call it that (it's short), is in Esme's POV and XxMoonstonexX has a beautiful way of showing it.

Overall Score:

C+

P.S., short post, sorry. 

Surprise Smut Plus One

It is ironic that I will post a surprise smut and something cute and fluffy. It's quite the opposite...especially this: The Great Vacation by Lady-of-the-Ravens. I know it is a little far fetched with the smut, not because of the girl on girl stuff, but the erotica of it's contents. I feel kind of odd for liking it so much, but whatever. 

That was the surprise, now here is the real thing. Keep you forever was written by cactus452 and is a series. It is a series and I will post them for the next week of two. There are four in the series and I might use them as a surprise on the Character Spotlights. 

I like these short and cute one-shots, especially with Alice. It is heartwarming, really. 

After the Cullen's leave Forks in New Moon Carlisle and Alice talk over what's happened.

Overall Score:

B-

I Lie...

Now, don't go yelling 'You Lie' at me, it won't help or make you rich. But what I can do is give  you a great FF to read. Why am I a liar? I said I would not do anymore BD posts. I know, I know. But this is urgent:

Waxing. Crescent.  Pastiche Pen can't get any better. I swear. I am in love with this one so much. 

It is basically Nessie all grown up in High School. Her family moves to Canada, she attends a prep school... It's too good to explain. Oh, and also a mysterious vampire is stalking her.

How the hell do you become a proper well-adjusted adult when your dad can read your every thought? when you've never been human? when you're not really a vampire? when you prefer to show your thoughts instead of speaking them? And then there's this whole thing where your

hot best friend is your auto-soulmate...

I will never lie to you again, maybe, but this is  on my top ten list. 

Overall Score:

A+

Another Late One...

So I am sick of the Breaking Dawn themed past days. Therefore, I have decided to look into Edward's past. I am a huge advocate of the 'I want to know about Edward's past so write about it Stephenie' club. Always have been. 

This story I am currently reading is called Two Leather Journals by Hazl. And those journals are awesome. See for yourself:

Edward remembers nothing from his human life. Bella finds two leather journals, the only thing left from his past. They read them, and find out about what direction Edward's life was heading...and learn a shocking secret from his past.

I haven't a clue about the secret from his past, so I cannot spoil it. What I do know is that this fits my needs until my fan club wishes come true. 

Overall Score (so far):

A-

Late Post...Forgiven?

If you don't forgive me with this post then nothing will.

Smut is cool. Almost as cool as purple (Twilight movie pun). And keeping with the wedding theme I have to post this kick A 'fade to black' scene. 

Isle Esme  is the best wedding smut, I swear. It is a must read. I think the Meyer has a FF.net account it is so great. Is Nightdancers  Steph? You choose. 

It is Edward and Bella's wedding night, and the tension is palpable. Can a human and vampire really make this work?

Is it really going to work? I hope so, because I beg that you read this. 

Overall Score:

A+

Sorry, But Not Today

Sorry for the late post, I was busy being funny. You will not be busy being funny right now because you already had your weekly dosage yesterday on the Character Spotlight Thursday: Emmett post. 

Today, however, will be featuring the famous wedding. I loved it, though Breaking Dawn is my least favorite of the series. Plus, I felt like doing this post and also giving credit to mRs-cuLLenxxx for writing The Wedding.

"Cute, fluffy short story about Alice playing "Barbie Bella" to dress Bella up for the wedding, and the wedding. Really short, but cute."

.

Breaking Dawn skipped over Alice's big moment with the makeover. It should of been in the book, but unfortunately it wasn't. 

I like this story, even though it repeated the wedding entrance. So I'll give it an

Overall Score:

B+

Character Spotlight Thursday: Emmett:

So did you know that Emmett is great? Yes, no? Well, he is. 

Here is the reason why: 

Babysat By Emmett written by TwilightGirl65

This is so funny and I like laughing as well as Emmett. Put two and two together and we have this story. The way the author writes Bella is exactly how she would act, hell, I'd act like that too if Emmett caught the house on fire. 

When you do read this, don't read it at 11:00 at night because every soul in your house will be awake from you laughing so hard. 

What exactly will make you laugh so hard? 

"Emmett babysits Bella while the rest of the Cullen's go hunting. VERY funny." 

So there you have it, proof that this is VERY funny.     

Overall Score:

A-
