"My Cowardly Lion" by laughablelamb

Hey there !

Today I have another great fic. to rec you guys. Its "My Cowardly Lion" by laughablelamb.

"Edward Cullen is beyond shy, Bella Swan has similar issues, and Alice, given an opportunity she never thought possible, has a plan that she hopes will help them both understand the value of a little human interaction."

Hmmm... What can I say about this fic.It was recced by the brilliant Sunking ( Thank you !! ). This fic. is beyond awesome !! Edward comes to visit Alice and to crash in her and Bella's place. The thing is... he is awfully shy... I mean... he just bolts the fuck on when he sees Bella for the first time... oh yeah! But Alice being Alice, tries to get Edward and Bella together to you know have a freaking conversation. Human Relations 101. As Edward starts to relax around Bella, thats where this story starts to become even more AWESOME ( reeks awesomeness ). The conversation they have with each other is just.. magnificent. Past stories are shared, trust is earned, but the last 4 chapters are just PURE FUCKING WIN ! I want to write all the shit they say to each other but that will just fuck it up so bad.. And I really don't want you to hate me.. Anyways.. I freaking loved this story, and it makes me fucking sad that it does not deserve the attention, review and praise it should have. So what I'm gonna do is rec. fics that are not known much. Because stories like "My Cowardly Lion" deserve so much more.

This is one of the fics I can't wait to get updated..

'Til then..

First Rec. "Brave" by Sunking

Hi there !

My first rec will be "Brave" by Sunking..

"Edward has suffered anxiety attacks for as long as he can remember. When new girl Bella arrives, he finds that she inspires a calm he's never known. As she helps to bring him out of his shell, he finds courage he never knew he had."

The summary says it all... You know what ? Thats a thing I don't get. In my opinion, a summary should draw you in.. You should get a feeling that you HAVE to read it. So kudos on the summary Sunking ! ( Here I am giving props like I'm some kind of a freaking fanfic. authority.. Moving on ! )

This story is beyond awesome. It's a pretty short story with 5 chapters but don't let that fool you. What I like about this fiction is in this one, Bella is really a heroine. The kind of Bella I would like to see more. Not a whiny, insecure, "I'm not good enough for him" Bella. She is patient, strong,passionate and knows what she wants.

Enter Edward.. He has anxiety attacks and is a bit different from the Edwards we know. I really don't want to give much about story and ruin your fun so I'll stop here.

What I'm going to say is, Read it, Rec. it and enjoy a brilliant story written by a brilliant author.

The whole story is in Edward's POV. But if you want to read what is going on in Bella's mind, the author blessed us with " Catch Your Fall ". All Bella POV.

Again, If that isn't enough for you ( as that was the case for me ) there is a 3rd part of the story called " Brave:Tomorrow ".

The author ( Sunking ) published her book called " The Kingdom ". I ordered it and hopefully will be able to read it in 10 days.

Alrighty then...


Hi there ! As you may have noticed, I'm a guy who read the Twilight Series and fell in love with it ( shocking I know )!

It all started in last summer while I was in summer school. I was bored out of my mind so I went to a DVD Store to pick up some movies to kill some time. I saw a movie called "Twilight" which I bought immidiately because there were vampires in it.hehe..
Anyways..
I watched it...then re-watched it...and re-watched because to me the movie was vague.. There were scenes I didn't understand and couldn't relate or find a connection.
Then I learned that It was a movie from a book. As I said before.. I had plenty of time to kill... I thought " What the hell? " and bought the sucker..

1 day... I read it in 1 day...( which after reading I concluded that the movie sucked ass ) I slept over it.. Went to the bookstore and bought all 3 books... Read them on 3 days... ( all of 'em ) .. Basicly my whole goddamn summer was spent on books.. Oh yes.. I read them again and again and again and again...

Being a guy that I am.. I questioned myself.. I mean WTF is wrong with me reading YA novel about a love triangle?
The thing is what shocked me the most that I enjoyed the fuck out of it. And I'm not ashamed. YA is definitely not my forte. I don't know what drew me in.. The way S.M. wrote it ? The plot ? The characters ? I still don't know.. But I freaking loved it !

Anyways.. I stumbled upon fanfic by accident. The first thing I read was "Wide Awake" by AngstGoddess. It blew my away.. I'm not gonna say that it was literary or structural or any mambo jambo because frankly I don't know shit about it.

Anyway I'm rambling.. Yeah I do that a lot..

So to sum up... I know its rare a guy to read let alone love Twilight Series.. Plus if you add Fanfiction to it.. Almost everytime I get the same reaction :" OMG ! You're a guy ? "

And frankly.. I enjoy that a lot. I like being different.I love hanging on to something that I love, even if it is rare. And I'm able to share it with other people who loves the same thing as I do.

Anyway.. I probably addres the "guy" issue later on...

O.K. This was my first blog..thingy..whatever it is called..

In this blog I will rec my favorite fictions and If they agree.. maybe I can interview a few authors.. Maybe GUYS !! who knows..

Until then...
