Uncle Asad’s Top 50 Hosie Longfics, Part 1
In answer to this Ask…but apparently the whole post was too long for tumblr 😭
As I mentioned before, as of May 2025 there are more than 100 completed Hosie fanfics that have more than 40,000 words! So I’ve narrowed it down by about half 😂 and feature 36 different authors whose long works I’ve enjoyed.
The list is ordered alphabetically by author. For authors with multiple works, the works are listed roughly in my order of favorites (some of them are hard to sort!). Those works marked with ★ are also on my list of Top Ten Favorite Hosie Fics of All Time.
Some of these authors also have other works that fit these criteria but which I haven’t read because they were before my time or had so many chapters I couldn’t catch up at the time, so if you like an author’s work on this list, be sure to check their other stories!
