I think that kind of dynamic is quite fascinating, mostly because I like to look at things from different points and if a characterization is done right it can be quite the treat.

Oh my god! Eclipse by Mijan was so fucking beautiful! I cried like a baby around the end. Did she ever finish the sequel? I remember she had started one...
I remember hopping from link to link like an Easter bunny on a chocolate high. I kept bookmarking pages because I was afraid I'd lose the link to something I wanted to read (this is why I'm so grateful I discovered del).
Once you have a taste, it's hard to resist... I have to say that I started reading fanfics in English to improve my grasp of the language, but the added bonus of reading about juicy/funny/hot/hurtful/fluffy/cracky/epic stories about two goodlooking blokes was a sweet deal ;)

(this conversation about pretty memories is warming my heart :] )
