yuletide

Apparently, there are many, many femslashy entries (thanks to femslash_today) in this year's yuletide, but I've only had time to read a few:
The Death of Myth-Making by jengrrrl is She-ra/Cat-ra, Mature. I read this because angharad_gov rec'ed it and was completely blown away. Not only is this not my fandom, but I've never seen the show. That made no difference to jengrrrl's complex, very adult world and fic. I was completely caught up in the political intrigue as well as the complicated emotional world jengrrrl builds so meticulously. Beautiful stuff!

Hostages of Mars by joandarck is another obscure fandom and its getting lots of praise from lots of smarter peeps than me. People who have actually read the source material. Although I found myself wishing that it would evolve into an AU rather than limiting itself to a behind-the-scenes that lead to a relatively unhappy/bittersweet ending for the protags, it was still a great read.

Seven Layer Confusion Cake by marenfic is She's the Man, Olivia/Viola, PG-13. This is wonderfully sweet and light.

Training Days by haku_kaen is Kill Bill Beatrix/O-Ren, Mature. Great story and I LOVE O-Ren. Was anyone else rooting for O-Ren at the end of Kill Bill?

and last but not least, Twelfth Night fic (the original Olivia/Viola) by voleuse, Summer Sang in Me.
