My list of books read so far in the month of November:

- E.M. Forster, Howards End
- Diana Wynne Jones, Howl's Moving Castle
- Tony Kushner, Angels in America
- Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman, Good Omens

I may as well put a big sign on my head saying FAHYE IS SICK AND INSOMNIAC. That's like. All of my comfort books devoured in less than two weeks. (Except Larklight, which is in Canberra.)

Now all I have to do is watch Amelie & Strictly Ballroom and I will have completely run out of things-which-cheer-me-up. Maybe I will watch Hairspray tonight. For the millionth time.

Seriously, this sucks. I have had to invent a new tag for my delicious account: pie.fic

It needs more entries. Which fics do you reread over and over again when you need to be cheered up?

I've read Healing Station Argh (http://toft-froggy.livejournal.com/376385.html), like, five billion times; also My Home and Native Land. (http://community.livejournal.com/i_defeated_sga/11675.html#cutid1) Outside of Stargate, I go on doyle_sb4 whofic binges fairly often, and I'm a big fan of a cup of hot chocolate and the Yuletide Quicksearch List -- the Buried Treasure Racket (http://yuletidetreasure.org/archive/30/theburied.html) (the Sting), Noir Enough (http://yuletidetreasure.org/archive/23/noirenough.html) (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang), Those Who Stand For Nothing (http://yuletidetreasure.org/archive/31/thosewho.html) (Alexander Hamilton/Thomas Jefferson).

It goes without saying that eyai fic have been a staple of this for some time now ... :)

Omg OT4 fic! String Theory is already a pie.fic and this one is definitely becoming one also.

ALSO, now that I have thought seriously about this for some time, I also put forth rageprufrock's body of work? She just wrote Merlin fic, (http://www.glitterati.talkoncorners.net/log/2008/11/10/merlin-fic-three-castles-12/) and her SG:A fic is spectacular.

Ohhh yes. Bell Curve was the first fic I thought of when I was putting together pie.fic -- but I didn't know she is writing Merlin. YAY.
