captain_tulip [Harry/Snape, NC-17]
Harry has come out of the war alive, but very much not undamaged…
I think this is one of the best Snarries I've ever seen, *ever*. A mixture of mystery and psycho-thriller with a very fragile concept of reality, and superbly ambiguous writing. Scary as bloody hell too – perhaps not your cup of tea if you like your fics clear-cut and explicitly spelled out, but if you enjoy ambiguity as much as I do, don't pass up on it!
Black and White bylazy_neutrino [James,Lily, PG]
Something is leaving dead birds and rodents on the front step of James and Lily Potter's door in Godric's Hollow…
This is such a perfect, suspenseful gem of a story that I really don't want to give away anything more, except to say… if you know how much I dislike Lily, Marauderfic and Godric's Hollow stories, and end up reccing this, you *know* it's good, right? Better than good – amazing.
Night, Sleep and the Stars bymelusinahp [Harry/Draco, Draco/Bella, Harry/Bella, NC-17]
Summary:"Even with his face smeared with dirt and sweat, even with his glasses missing, even in his exhausted and helpless state, the boy on the floor made Draco want to hurt him."
Whoa! A supremely vicious, in-character Draco, vulnerable-yet-tough hero Harry, and a totally insane-but-strangely-alluring Bellatrix – mix, shake well, enjoy. And then re-read the beginning :).
The Soul Adores bymaeglinyedi [Harry/Snape/Tom, NC-17]
Summary:Harry gets his hands on Slytherin's locket, but gold is not all he finds. In a desperate bid to gain crucial information, Harry attempts to play the player, with unpredictable results.
Harry is taking a very risky, innovative shortcut to the Horcruxes... I won't say anything more about the plot, because it's so superbly twisty, but it's a great adventure story with hot sex and a mind-blowing plotline :). Gosh, the ending! :)
