Lolly lolly get your rec list here
Haven't contributed anything fun in a while but I've been reading/watching/lurking as time allows and now I have a Texas-sized rec list to share!!!
BSG:
One of my favoritest fangirls of all time,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dionusia, really came through with the awesome crack, as per usual. Read her awesomecakes crackfic of Lee stripping during the season finale. MADE OF WIN.
The glorious and brillianthobbitofkobol has produced two gems recently:
1 - the most sweaty arm-pr0n in one post since S3 on the algae planet: a Team Tahcco picspam for season 4.0. Just think about it y'all, all that gorgeous sweaty angst on the Demetrius, all the identity crises and mutinies and celebrations and fights? Helo/Anders FTW!!!
2 - A hilarious crossover vid using footage from the finale and the audio from "Where do we go from here?" (from Once More With Feeling)
Other Whedon-related awesomeness:
We have all seen the Dr. Horrible trailers, yes? If not, PLEASE DO SO IMMEDIATELY.
Also? I am still unreasonably excited about Dollhouse.
And more than a little sad that the Faith arc is over in the comics. That was my fave part of season 8 so far.
SPN and J2 AU's
Crackvids, y'all! SPN and HP crackvids no less.heidi8 has made a whole series of hilarious Schoolhouse Rock vids for SPN and HP fandoms. My absolute favorite is A Noun Is a Person, Place, or Thing (As Explained by Sam Winchester).
Everyone who has ever loved awesome slash must immediately go read this fab SPN/Iron Man crossover. Full of snarky banter and yummy smut. I <3 Tony Stark like crazy after reading this.
AND!!! all the recent bigbang J2 AU fics are just making me no end of happy. Ten loooooong and awesome fics listed here. I particularly love the humor of the summer camp AU, the crackiness of the seahorse AU, the shenanigans of the movie theater AU, and the romance of the bookstore AU. I'm also currently reading (and blushing like crazy) at nyxie's smut-tastic hot-for-teacher AU.
OH BOYS I LOVE YOU.
In books and reading-land
I finally got the trade paperback for the final Y The Last Man volume. OH YORICK. Damn, that may be my favorite graphic series of all time. Must read the whole series all over again now.
Also finished Hero by Perry Moore, which was better than I anticipated. At first I thought, who can go wrong with a gay teen superhero? I am SO the ultimate target audience for this book! But then it seemed like it was kind of slow-paced and about sports and daddy issues. Turns out I was WRONG and thank god I pushed on through because the book is complex and delightful and awesome.
However, City of Bones is not rocking my socks hardly at all. I am nearly finished and still pretty underwhelmed. Not all YA urban fantasy can be amazing, I know, but I'm still bummed.
Next in reading land: Cupid by Julius Lester, Devilish by Maureen Johnson, So Hard to Say by Alex Sanchez, the Marvel Civil War trade paperbacks, several Batman volumes and Planet Hulk.
Any recs for me? vids? slash? pilots? books? movies?

Other recent YA picks of mine are Night Road by A.M. Jenkins (vampire road trip, off a rec from yalsa-bk) and Elizabeth Scott's Stealing Heaven (another yalsa-bk find, but this one because she sent my library a free copy).
Do you have a Shelfari for your library? I've been working with the teen volunteers to create ours. I'm not sure any of our patrons actually look at it - hopefully some will after our new website is uploaded and it's a featured link - but it sure is fun to play with.

Halfway through Devilish now, and I'm totally digging it. And adding your other recs to my goodreads to-read list!
Hmmmm...never played with Shelfari. New toy, new toy!
