"Only problem is, I can't remember what I've forgotten..."

When I first read this quote, I was 11 and so had no idea of its sweet irony...

But throughout the years, in my eternal quest trough the world of Hp fanfic, I've often came back to this quote.
I can't indeed remember what I've forgotten, and this idea to start storing the best fanfics I read, sprang from that thought.

I would like to say that creating a best Hp fanfics List is my original idea, but that would be a blatant lie. There are probably hundreds of extremely good Hp Fanfic Lists out there, and mostly will be much better organized than mine, but I truly wished to post mine, since I already had it in my computer either way...

I started reading Hp fanfic when I was 14 and since then have never stopped, my tastes have changed greatly and been influenced by certain stages and events of my life.
But one thing has remain always the same, since the first day I picked up a book, and all trough my devoted reading of the Hp books and later on of its fanfiction... I'll read anything as long as it's good.

I prefer stories that are magnificently written, of course, but if the story has such an element of the extraordinary, in the form of a original idea, a twisted plot trick, a perfect characterization, if it managed to pull deep emotion from me... then it is in my list.

Thankfully, such a thing as good writing tends to go on pair with very good stories.
And outstanding authors!

Let us not forget about then, and the gift of love and devotion they are giving us, by letting us read their masterpieces...

I've betaed, practically since I began reading fanfic, believe my, writing in general, but fanfiction in particular is a work of love.

So, come with me, into a magical adventure of discovery and rediscovery trough the mists of my memory...
