I've been reading stories on JJ for a long time, so I'm writing reviews to recommend the ones I like.
The stories I recommend aren't necessarily exceptionally well written, but there's always something worth reading in them.
I generally won't include the author's own blurb for each story, just some of my own opinions and comments. I don't leave reviews on the original authors' pages because most of what I have to say isn't very pleasant. When something is well written, I have nothing to say; when something is a minefield (in my opinion), I always want to give it a thorough critique. But I don't want to discourage the authors from writing, because I do like their work after all. So I'll say what I want here, in my own space. If any author happens to see this, I hope you won't mind. If you really do, leave me a message and I'll revise it. (For the record, these are strictly my personal opinions, aimed only at the stories. I absolutely don't mean to attack anyone.)
I only recommend fan fiction here. I read original works too, but I love fan fiction the most. Fan fiction really does stand on the shoulders of giants (laughs).
There are both BL and BG stories here, and I'll label them. I'll also mark whether each one is complete.
I generally recommend stories I've read recently. I've read plenty of good ones in the past, but I'm too lazy to go back and reread them, so many good stories won't be included.
Some stories may come with illustrations. They're not the original authors' covers, but drawings I've made myself, as little keepsakes from reading the stories.
Hee hee, the evaluation is objective, witty and calm, give it a thumbs up
