The Acid Test by labsquint (7 ch./18,226 words so far)
Summary: A man is killed by a bomb at the Reflecting Pool in downtown D.C. But when Brennan and Booth clash over how to handle the case and their relationship is indelibly changed, will their partnership and their friendship be able to survive?
I love how much scientific detail goes into writing this fic. Very intriguing case, and great characterization as well. The lab scenes ring really true, and the squintspeak sounds spot on. (I'm only four chapters in but I wanted to get a quick rec in before getting back to the reading :).)
Only if I by joliesse43 ( 6 ch./24,279 words)
This story grabbed my attention right from the start; I like the combination of casefile and romance.
Drink Deeply by SkylaraK (8 ch./24,352 words)
The bodies of several missing hikers are found in a storage space.
Again, I'm only a few chapters in but I didn't want to wait reccing this; it's an entertaining read and the case is shaping up to be quite exciting. Casefile with B/B romance as well.
The Bones of an Angel, part 2, by

one-shots, short fic:

That's why I never give up on good old ffn... it's still a good hunting ground for fic, particularly the longer stuff, which just seems harder to find on LJ.

Yay, glad you like. I rarely find so much stuff I like all at once.
The Acid Test is my new favourite fic and it makes me sad that it isn't getting enough reviews as it should be, just because it isn't like Booth-and-Brennan-suddenly-realised-they're-in-love-fic
Yeah, you can't go by the number of reviews at ffn, those are really misleading sometimes. And the B/B-suddenly-realize-they-re-in-love/get-married/etc kind of fic is something I'm just not very interested in. I need some plot with it, or some kind of twist.
