FanFiction

Okay, so I spend a lot of time sitting in front of a computer and there are occassions when I need to find creative ways to keep myself entertained...you know like writing a blog, searching for cars I can't afford, shopping real estate in my area, sorting through craigslist to see if there's anything of value, checking in on my blog writing friends...that sort of thing.
Well, a few years ago I became a reader...I mean, yes I of course knew how to read before but I despised reading.  This was all pre-Twilight era.  Well after reading the Stephanie Meyer series, I became desperate for another fix of some new fiction books that I could get lost in.  Hence, the Sookie Stackhouse/Southern Vampire Mysteries books come into play.  Well after reading all of those and the Hunger Games series and a few books here and there in between I am in waiting mode for the Fifty Shades trilogy to be delivered from Amazon so I lean on FanFiction...sometimes its the only thing that can get you by on a readers dry spell.  So I recommend checking it out http://www.fanfiction.net/   Check it out and select your favorite books and see all of the stories written by the fans on how things should have gone, might have gone, side stories, even more "explicit" stories in case you waited through 3 books to hear about Edward & Bella's honeymoon only to be disappointed by the one page description in the book 4.  Ugh! I know.
So anyway, Sarah's reading recommendations...
Twilight Series (4) - must read
Sookie Stackhouse books (soon to be 12) - must read
Hunger Games (3) - it's no Twilight but I definitely enjoyed reading.
Fifty Shades Trilogy (3) - I'll let you know...I read a small part and immediately got on Amazon to order them.
Also, a small side note...call me crazy but I've decided to write my own stories...not really fan fiction because its not based on anything else but fiction based on reality.  Does that make sense...twisting stories based on real life into what I want them to be.  We'll call them Sarah Fiction.  I'll let you know when I'm willing to share...work in progress.
