Never read any Stiles/Peter fics, I'll have to try some.

Try DiscontentedWinter. She also writes Sterek, and publishes original stuff as Lisa Henry. She's one of my all time favorite fic authors, and she always finishes what she starts, and she writes so fast! With fic, anyway, lol.

Just read Hear No Evil, by Blue Sea 14 .
So so story,until the Epi. Sounded like it should have come after five more chapters.I hate when someone marks something complete, epi and all, and in reality it is just incomplete.Blech.

Time to flounce again, I really tried to be patient and tolerant, but I’m throwing in the towel.

I’ve try to push through a story, but I’m ready to flounce a fic 25 chapters in - Bella, who is supposed to be this great profiler (that survived a brutal killer/rapist) has fainted or gone catatonic one too many times. It also has some odd sci-fi things that are never explained or defined. The story has just become too far fetched to be believable.

I’m done.

I'm honestly amazed this has yet to be mentioned (yes, I read through all 52 pages of the thread before posting) but my biggest pet peeve and occasional reason to flounce is when things from the movie are in a story. Charlie does not have a mustache. Laurent is not African American with long dreads. If you want to picture the cast - I personally don't - that's fine, but be aware of the differences between the two media, especially when you post on ffnet under 'Book'.

On the other hand, I don't mind a change in appearance - i.e. Bella has blue eyes - so long as it's not constantly brought up. Like in Sincerely, Sergeant Masen. I can't remember if it was Bella or Rose, though, but one of them had a very different appearance from canon but after mentioning it once, it never came up again. So it was fine, no flouncing needed.

What I hate, is when I don't know why I flounced. I recently read a LyricalKris story - we can all agree she's a great writer - I think it was called Empty Chairs at Empty Tables or something. After just 2 chapters I recced it to my friend, because I loved it. By chapter 11, I was done, realizing that I was forcing myself to keep reading when really I just wanted out. And I have no clue why; she's a good writer, the concept was fairly original. I feel like, maybe, it shouldn't have been so long, maybe it should just have been 5 chapters. Some stories just go on for too long, even if they're only 18 chapters long, I guess.

Can't wait to read other stuff from LyricalKris, though.

Here's some more stuff that makes me flounce, other than the obvious grammar/spelling stuff:

Falling in love way too soon
Getting together in the 5th chapter of a 30 chapter fic.
I recently read a story where Edward was brothers with Embry, and another with Seth. And, no, they weren't half-siblings. There are sooo many characters to choose from, why are you making a white dude the brother of a Native American?!?

There's probably more, but maybe not; I rarely flounce fics, tbh. Oh, and, I don't mind when characters have a different nationality, just gives the readers more stories. And I adore Rochelle Allison's use of Hispanic Alice in Starry Eyed Inside.

Here's my question; do you imagine the cast when you read, or your own versions of the characters?

Wales is in the UK. The United Kingdom (UK) is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Wow, this is really delayed. I'm know for my delayed reactions but, this is too much. 🤣

Sins of My Past
Author: content1 PM
Bella was left by Edward to clean up the ruins of her life after his betrayal. What happens when Edward finds out that not all was as it seems. What are the consequences of his sins and what will he do to get her back?

I heard lot about this fic before but recently in other thread some one mentioned it so tried.Needless to say after 4 chapter i flounced it. infact if you read in 1st paragraph of second chapter ,You can easily say that writing of this story is completely immuture & stupid & unrealisitcs. Characters are so unnatural that i dont have words.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

P.S:- its has 88 somthing chapter, after reading 4 chapter i wanted kill someone I dont know how can anyone read 88 chapter of this mindless story.I guess others can read since it has like 10 k reviews.

P.P.S:- bella having edward's baby & than their reunion after years kind of stories are always cringeworthy. Hardly any author does justice to concept.anything close to perfect i have read is Secret & lies. even SAL has some flaw still it is well-develop story.

I followed this story when it was being written, I never got around to reading it again.
