Fic and fanvid recs in the following fandoms: Crazy Rich Asians, The Good Wife, Harry Potter (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them), Indiana Jones and Late Night (2019).


Crazy Rich Asians

Words My Mother Taught Me: straymarionette (Gen with strong Rachel/Nick, longish, teen for language, post movie)

This is thoughtful and illuminating, but it also scratches the 'what happened next?' itch. I really appreciated the deep dive into language, culture, family values and identity from a female perspective.

The Good Wife


The Slow Fall: abvj (Will/Alicia, post s2 ficlet)

This conveys the heat and the feelings in a very ‘Oh, Will’ way.

Harry Potter
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

put down your roots: weatheredlaw (Tina/Newt, post first film, jossed, teen)

This is fierce and lovely as Tina and Newt deal with (or not) the other being hurt.

Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark

Apple Blossom: lilly_the_kid (Indy/Marion)

This is a lot of fun and the flipping of the focus works well.

Late Night (2018)

Tin Cans and String: suburbansun (Molly/Tom)

The summary is ‘A love story in phone calls’, and the framework works so well to provide missing moments from the film, building on their dynamic.
