i am hosting the read along on thursday!
Summary:
What if Edward left Forks after his first encounter with Bella, and he never returned? Fate couldn't keep these two apart. But meeting at a later time and place might have changed the nature of their relationship.
It was a SLOW week for me! I was so busy, I only read updates :(
Updates I Read This Week:
Dark Games & Twisted Minds by Katinki
chapter 24. very exciting chapter. we got to see a bit of james' plan, but i am still very nervous. he seems to know the cullens and what they will do. james is dangerous!
Eclipsed Heart by Buff82
chapter 24. another great chapter! the author did such a great job describing how edward sees and experiences memories he's getting from someone's head.
Summary: INDIE TWIFIC AWARD WINNER! Bella Swan is being hospitalized for an Identity Disorder...Or is Bella Flanagan being hospitalized? Set after Edward leaves in New Moon or I'm writing this from an asylum. WARNING MA only. VERY DARK COMEDY.
my friend AltheaJams told me to read this story for a good laugh. well i read it and laughed harder than i have ever laughed in my life! this story is pure genius.
"Listen to me...You have to work harder at this, Bella."
"I'm sorry? What should I be working at?" I honestly had no clue.
"At becoming Bella Swan."
Completed Fics I Read This Week:
From Within These Walls by ericastwilight
one-shot rec i got from ADF. this is an entry for the Black Balloon Contest. i loved it. edward is in prison for killing the man that raped bella. i loved getting edwards thought and emotions. there were some great side characters also.
Completed Fics I Read This Week:
Leah's Spot by Reijilie
one-shot that takes place after BD. i loved it. was the first jacob/leah fic i've read. it really is how BD should have gone. i guess this is what i would call fluff.

Memory in Blood by araeo
one-shot written for the 'In The Dark Contest'. i loved this so much! first you need to know that i love a dark edward, but it is sometimes hard to find a good darkward fic. this one has edward feeding from evil humans when he runs across bella.

WiP's I Started This Week:
Stolen Souls by Nayaritvery dark story! this story has bella and alice being forced to work in a seedy strip club after their parents have died. it is told from many different pov's. doesn't work for every story but it's different and gives the story a crash feel. there are 12 chapters so far.
The Screamers by KiyaRaven
i am on chapter 12 of 37 right now. from the very first chapter i was laughing out loud. this is hilarious. bella was living on the streets when she met rock star edward. one thing leads to another and bella is offered a job to help with edward's management. there is great dialogue in this fic and i love the tough bella that isn't afraid to let her guard down for edward.
Seventh Inning Stretch by Live720
i found this AH story a while ago when it was a one-shot. someone rec'd it to me this week and when i looked it up realized it was now a multi-chapter fic. i am so excited! that first chapter was so hot. bella is engaged to edward but has a drunken one night stand with jacob that she can't get out of her head. there are 7 chapters so far and it is so good!
The Cannabean Betrothal by ItzMegan73
i started reading this during the read along on tuesday. a couple people had been telling me to read it so i thought this would be the perfect time. i really like it! its so sweet. edward and bella are a part of the cannabean lifestyle which is something like amish i guess. there are very strict rules and their courtship is very slow. i am on chapter 12 of 18 and i love the progress they have made. such a sweet story that i have added to my reading list :)
Updates I Read This Week:
Stranger Than Fiction by masenvixen
chapter 17. such a great chapter. masenvixen did a great job expressing bella's feelings and emotions. we know from new moon how broken bella was after edward left and this fic is really exploring that.
Dark Games & Twisted Minds by Katinki
chapter 22. ohhhh edward! the begining of this chapter will melt an ice cold heart. my emotions were all over the place while reading this. i absolutily can not wait to see what will happen next!
Eclipsed Heart by Buff82
chapter 22. this fic is so good and each update puts it closer to the top of my favorites! this chapter was amazing and the thing that stood out the most was buff's ability to write in one pov but express so clearly what the other characters where going through. this was an action packed chapter! i love this fic so much that i wrote a separate review here.
Hide and Drink by Savage
chapter 17. omg! such a great chapter! the love i have for this fic is deep in my bones i swear. savage is brilliant and wonderful. there was a bit of loving a bunch of action. i swear i think this story is for everyone. i don't think it is possible for someone NOT to like this fic. if you are not reading it, you are missing out...
