LIBRARIAN’S CHOICE: WEEKLY FICS
Happy Monday! I hope you are all having a wonderful start to your week, or if you’re in the US, a great long weekend. Here are some gems to make your day a little brighter.
the stars will sing for us by @fallofrainblog
Claire Beauchamp is just trying to start anew. She finds the fresh start she’s looking for in a small Scottish town, along with a pair of Jamies and all the things she never knew she needed. This one-shot has such an organic, lyrical quality to it, that the reader feels like they’re growing into this new life right alongside Claire. If you’re looking for peaceful and lovely, this is definitely the fic for you!
Market Price by @desperationandgin
Another modern AU, this series starts off with Claire on a rather forced bit of time off, looking for a way to fill her free hours. Well, she finds one rather quickly in the form of a local farmer’s market and a certain farmer therein. What follows is a scavenger hunt, some burnt lamb, a Date Five cut short, and some truly delightful vulnerability. This whirlwind romance is sweet and genuine; make sure to not miss out on the Market Price ficlets as well!
Dr. B, Medicine Woman by @crossinginstyle
This week seems like a good time to highlight Dr. B, as its 100th chapter was recently posted. Yup, you read that right, 100 chapters! At just over 300,000 words, this fic is a big one to dive into, but completely worth it. This is the story of Claire Beauchamp, a Boston lady Doctor who lands into the middle of a small town in the American West in the mid-late 1800s. As the story progresses, she grows more and more entwined with the townspeople; namely with three children who will eventually call her ‘Mama,’ and the mysterious red-headed Mac. While it is inspired by the show Dr Quinn Medicine Woman, it is not at all required to have watched Dr Quinn in order to enjoy this fic. Be warned, this story is the very definition of slowburn! Keep your patience, it will be 100% worth it in the end.
Well, that’s all for this week! I hope you all have a wonderful start of September, and happy reading!
