i had a great week finding new fics but all my updates come over the weekend and they are still waiting for me!
Completed Fics I Read This Week:
The Claiming by Leria
this is a oneshot that was rec'd on the darkest temptations blog. i love a dark edward so that blog is my friend. this story is post breaking dawn without nessie. edward and bella have been having some problems and bella has leaned on jacob a bit too much. edward doesn't take it laying down. i really liked it and i usually don't like vamp bella stories :)
Want No More by Savage7298
savage is the author of the brilliant hide and drink so i do believe i will read anything she writes. this is a oneshot written for the Best Domination Ever Contest. i loved it. bella is hostage in a building taken over by henchmen but she is drawn to edward despite his obvious involvement. i thought savage did a great job with their situation and not making it too cliche.
Always and Forever by Belli486 and SavageWoman
this is a oneshot written for the Fun With Your Clothes on Contest. i really liked it! bella and edward are in highschool and she is tired of him only being her friend when others are not around. so at the masked dance, she pretends to be someone else. i loved getting both pov's and being able to see both sides of the story. i really hope this is continued after the contest.
WIP's I Started This Week:
Decoy by 107yearoldvirgin
my friend kassiah has been talking about this fic for weeks now. so i finally sat down and read all 12 posted chapters. i loved it! bella moved away when she was 10years old and when she moves back junior year of highschool her friends don't remember her. she blackmails edward into hanging out with her for a month to get in with his crowd. of course during that month they fall for each other, but being the stupid high school students they are, they don't confess their love. this story is really one of the most realistic highschool fics i've read. 107yearoldvirgin writes these characters so well. i can't wait for the next update!
Updates I Read This Week:
Dark Games & Twisted Minds by Katinki
chapter 25. this chapter was so full of action! the fight was different from regular canon fights. katinki has leveled the playing field to give more suspense. i love that!
Eclipsed Heart by Buff82
chapter 25. this was a really sweet chapter. bella's pov after waking up and how she reconnects with edward. i just love these characters and i'm sad the story is nearing it's end.
Hide and Drink by Savage
chapter 20. wow. what a great chapter! every chapter is packed full and this one was no different. i had so many emotions going through me. the scene where edward apologized to bella for everything was so powerful.
Just Wait by InstantKarmaGirl
chapter 42. this story breaks my heart. so much angst! i like angst but my poor heart is aching after reading this story. i think it was written very well and the author is smart. her characters do what makes sense to where they are. so even if it breaks my heart, i understand the direction its going. i'm just waiting for them to have a breakthrough.
Innocence Lost by cullen818
chapters 14-16. this author is awesome at updating! she updates so often i had three waiting for me! so this is the part of the story where bella and jasper are finding their way to each other. i love that jasper is waiting for bella and not pushing her. i see their bond growing stronger and stronger.
Grasping Darkness by KiyaRaven
chapter 7. this story does not update regularly so when i saw an update i was very excited. and i wasn't let down! kiyaraven did such a great job writing the action in this story. i don't think i've ever been so on edge reading a fight in fic before! great chapter!
Becoming Bella Swan by BellaFlan
outtake. all i can say is that only BellaFlan can get me to read emmett/bella smut! seriously. oh and it was hot. oh and it was funny. seriously.

These are all great. I'm really enjoying Decoy. I used to love Can't Buy Me Love. I'm an 80's gal so it's right up my alley. You should add The Misapprehension of Bella Swan to your list. It is the freaking hotness!
