alisanneIn case you're not aware, the Snarry Road Not Taken Fest is currently posting, and week one has been completed. Before the next batch of nummy Snarry comes along, I thought I'd point you to what I especially enjoyed from the first week.
An Inadvertent Tie (5600, NC-17)
If you want a deliciously hot and sweet read, this is the story for you. Severus is trying to be noble and let Harry experience life, but Harry (smart man that he is) is having none of it. Although they do have a bit of angst to overcome first. Go roll around in the sweet and hot fluff!
Into a Bar (4432, PG)
You could see this as a Severus mentor fic, which is not usually my cuppa, but there's some ogling in it (lol), which made it more my speed. Either way you cut it, it's a lovely story. It's deceptively simple, but layered and beautifully descriptive, and the twist at the end was superbly revealed. If you can, I'd recommend reading it without looking at the warnings. Either way, though, it's fabulously done.
The Nameless Road (40,910, PG-13)
So I know the word count is intimidating, but trust me, this story is worth the time investment. It's a simple but profound premise. What if everyone thought Harry died as a baby and only discovered he might be alive when he came of age? How would Harry, as someone raised entirely Muggle, deal with what's expected of him? The author handles canon beautifully, the events flow by as if thing were meant to be this way, and everyone is recognizably themselves. And of course, the Snarry is luscious. A real joy to read.
As always, if you see something you enjoy, do leave the creator some love. :)
