I find myself in need of things-to-read recs.

I cannot pay money for anything so they either need to be free on the internet or else available as ebooks from the NYPL or the Brooklyn Public Library.

Fanfics also okay. Looking at another long day tomorrow, and I can never have enough things to read.

I was also impressed with "Amends," though it's not to everyone's taste, and the fact that it's unfinished is a deal-breaker for a lot of readers. If you're up for fanfiction that takes post-war PTSD with due seriousness (not everyone is. Nowhere near everyone is) you might also appreciate Demonology and the Tri-Phasic Model of Trauma: and Integrative Approach.

And if you haven't read Lust Over Pendle, by AJ Hall (of blessed memory), you really should. Queer representation is oddly dated, but not offensive. I can't find it on AO3 anymore, so here it is.

Lust Over Pendle and Cold Comfort Farm are making fun of the same genre of book, only CCF is doing it from much closer range (and without magic, and with more expectation that everyone in the audience has read lots of the genre.) It's VERY funny.
