Anne and George of the Thirds by
lilacsigil (Famous Five - Enid Blyton)
Gen; George & Ann (& Timmy); 7878 words
Summary: George's first term at school promises to be a tumultuous one.
A thoughtful background story for George. I like how this fic deals with things like gender roles more in-depth that you could ever hope to find in Blyton's books, but not in a heavy-handed way that would drown the story.
There's a real authentic feel to it. She got the style of the books down pat, too!
I ordered book one of The Hunger Games. I've seen it mentioned so often recently that I'm really curious now. I just wish they were here already, I'm suddenly in the mood for a juicy novel. The weather is awful, I've gone bouldering a bit but it's a slippery wet mess out there.
