I am an avid reader. Last year I decided to re-read all the Stephanie Plum series. Upon completing 16 I was utterly disappointed. Not just with the book, but with JE's lack of character development. I think she insults her loyal fans by not giving us more in depth characters. She takes for granted that those of us who have been reading her for years will automatically go out every Summer and buy her latest book. I give her great respect for being creative and making the great series, but I think she should respect her readers and give well developed characters and story arcs. Well, enough about my feelings for JE. After re-reading the series, I was scooping out different sites and I stumbled across FanFiction, which I had never read. It was a wonderful moment, there should have been a musical moment to celebrate it. I was so excited to find a place where people love the Plum series and characters as much I do. They love them enough to spend their free time to create stories and fill in the much needed character back stories, side stories, and antics that JE herself does not give us. I mean, come on, the Merry Men are full of such potential, but she barely uses them in her stories. Anyway, I am very grateful for each and everyone of your FF stories. They brighten my day and fill in the months till Summer. I am definitely a Babe, but I'd read a good Cupcake story if I could find one. I do like Joe and I am not really a fan of stories that make him into a rapist or criminal, but I do read them all. I think Stephanie is better off with Ranger or one of the Merry Men. They suit her much more than Joe. Oh, and I am not into much Helen bashing either, I think she is an over bearing mother, but JE never writes her as mean as some of the FF does, but I guess the great thing about FF, you do whatever you want with the characters. It is a great thing. Thanks to everyone who add their stories to the Plum World and sharing your talent. I just might write one of my own some day. Oh, I am new Sons of Anarchy fan. My favorite characters are Happy, Jax, and Chibs, sometimes Juice. I love the OCs that some of FF writers have created. Looking forward to reading more SOA ff. |
