Bookmarker's Notes
Finished reading 1st & 2nd, waiting on the 3rd.
This is everything I love about taking a character generally unliked and creating a story around them without making them conventionally likeable <3 Paul is a simp and I lov eit, he also doesn't show up until new moon. The dialogue really pops off in new moon too, fun seeing the growth in character too. -

Summary
"I remember the darkness. It was only supposed to be for a moment, just a small break. A short nap in between jobs. Nothing more. Just a second. The pain came seconds later. It was everywhere, all encompassing. Then, nothing else. Just darkness. It was like swimming through oil. Before I woke up, it was all just darkness. When I did, I was somewhere else and someone else entirely."
Death was supposed to be the end. The end of her and her rest. She believed that. At least partially.
And not unlike before, she really couldn't seem to die. But unlike before, her survival was not her choice. This was out of her hands. Now... Sierra Logan was not Sierra Logan. She was supposed to be Anika Durran because she was in the girl's body. In another world that was... too entirely familiar.
She didn't expect to die. She didn't expect to be forced into someone else' body. She didn't expect to form connections like the ones she forged. She wanted to go home, but if she couldn't then she would survive until her final breath.

OC insert into Bodhi's younger sister's body who is 1 year behind Violet.
Plot is faithful to the books, only small changes, seems mostly character driven.
Aaric feels a little OOC to me but still enjoyable.
Andrea's dragon is a brown dragon (Issr) who is male and mates with Mira S's dragon (who is also male - we got one!).
Andrea has not gotten her signet yet, I am assuming it will have something to do with music.
End with Lilith S (V's mom) dying to get the ward stone going at Basgaith. V hate's Andrea now but will probs chill out once she get's it out of er system. -

Series, covers season 1 up to leaving CDC.
More people live in this, Merle keeps his hands and stays with the group. We STILL don't know what happened on the roof which is causing a lot of tension, like Daryl giving Merle the silent treatment, Merle showing some actual genuine care towards others, and Daryl being a lot more focus on MC. D did see MC have a split second of weakness in longing for an easy out so there will probs be tension surrounding that. Dr. Jenner is coming with, MC is not infected we don't know about immunity yet. Amy and Andrea both lived (i think?). Shane has latched onto MC and is showing early warning signs of obsession similar to with Lori in the show, maybe because Rick know sbout him and Lori earlier on Shane didn't have all the chances like he did in the show to screw around with Lori so he is switching targets. They cleared out all the resources they could find from the CDC before leaving. They are on their way to the "old folks home" - hoping we learn more about the roo D: -

Summary
Basgiath cadet Fenryn Zynd can mend in a way no one else can - by transferring the injuries sustained by riders (and their dragons) onto/into her own body before mending herself.
She's hidden in plain sight until her dragon flies her straight to the Battle of Resson. Unable to allow Liam to die, she intervenes. After saving Liam by mending Deigh, she's thrust into the world of the Revolution while uncovering the secrets of her own past and coming to terms with the power of her signet.
The story follows Fenryn from the Battle of Resson at the end of Fourth Wing, following Iron Flame and soon Onyx Storm (so contains multiple spoilers!).
Has a mild why choose arc with Bodhi and Liam, but main love story is slow burn.
Iron Flame ends at chapter 70. Chapter 71 onwards is Onyx Storm.

Summary
After Sara Everdeen awakes in Navarre, she has one goal: survive until she finds a way to go back home.
As she hides her real identity, Sara carefully uses her knowledge of the universe to get through the Riders Quadrant without disrupting the timeline. But she quickly realizes that reading about something is nothing like experiencing it.
Between friendships, hardships, war and even romance, little does she know that her presence alone might already be changing everything.
***
My twist on the reader-insert trope.

Oh my, what an ending!!!
Ok so isekai into 4th wing, gets put on Liams Squad, Xaden is really suspicious, she ends up spilling the beans and using his 2nd signet as currency to get him to work with her, Xadens 2nd signet grows WAY stronger than books. Sara is pretty stuck on the "Timeline" and is sure he loves/will love Violet, until they finaly figure shit out and get together. She bonds with Andarna, Vi only has one dragon, Sara's signet is shielding and she is working on it cause it can shield physical and mental powers, timeline changes include LIAM LIVES and Daine gets stuck in the trap with them during War Games and now know about Venin, they kill all the Venin BUT the last one was an illusion weilder and was the one to bring Sara into this reality and offers her a way home (omg), and this essentially breaks her realtionship with Xander. Everyone knows she is an isekai now and Bohdi is super butt hurt, so it violet. Sara decided to not go back to death college and instead "fakes" her dea so she can help better with the war efforts. And thats the end of it. -

Daisy looked back at him like he had two heads.
“Shane” Rick warned.
“Actually Sean, it’s because I know better. If you guys want to plant some roots, that’s fine and dandy. I don’t. The soil’s too wet these days and roots tend to rot”
“What happened to your face?” Shane shot back, smiling as the corners of her lips dropped Into a frown.
The room was once again quiet.
“Planted my roots in the wrong place.” She said coldly, maintaining his harsh glare.

Summary
Set in the prison era. A woman with an appetite shows up and can’t figure out why in hell nobody in the place has tried to go after Daryl. Turns out there’s a little more to his reticence than meets the eye, but luckily she’s decided he’s more than worth the effort. Smut, nameless reader, cussing (lots of cussing), canon typical angsty stuff, fair volume of eventual fluff.
...
As if on cue my gaze caught an unfamiliar figure coming up the dog run. Shaggy brown-black hair, well-built but more sinew than brawn…very nice arms, bare and tanned in the late afternoon sun. I caught a glimpse of his face as he came into the courtyard and paused to talk to Glenn. Little bit of a beard around the mouth, strong jawline, narrow but pleasingly rugged features…‘I stand corrected,’ I said in a lower voice, giving Maggie a nudge. 'Hello there tall, dark and handsome talking to Glenn.’
She glanced up and then actually did a double take, looking at me like I’d sprouted a second head.
'You serious?’
'But that’s just Daryl talking to Glenn,’ Beth said, then gaped at me. 'You mean DARYL?’

Summary
The world ended, and Indi learned to survive alone, until a bite that should’ve killed her didn’t.
Hidden now, she’s a ghost in the ruins of the old world… until someone else starts hunting in her woods. He’s quiet, dangerous, and far too skilled to be a coincidence.
Their paths collide in the wreckage of the world, two survivors with too many scars and too much to hide. Trust is lethal, but so is being alone. And in a world ruled by the dead, it’s the living who might destroy her.

Bookmarker's Notes
Very original, I have no idea how it's going to go from here.
Sum - Indi is clumsy but head strong, gets left behind by her first group after being bit, struggles, survives for years, states out a space, takes over an abandoned aircraft and set up, she is near-ish to Alexandria. She play "who's the better hunter?" with Daryl and trys to fuck him over a bunch, before seeing the Saviours separate and kill a family, she switches gears and tries to screw the saviours over as much as possible. Daryl is still looking for her. She saves D, gets caught by Zane from first group, he SA's her, shes on Negans hit list, she gets away but is injured, D finds her, brings her back to her home. He plays nurse, hunter, gatherer and convinces her to come to Alexandria. She goes and isn't trusted but does her best, mad social anxiety, lots of people respecting her and finally gets some trust in time to help with the big quary herd. She and D finally kiss before the Herd. She ends up saving Rick and Carl but gets bit again, Rick sees, she runs away cause she is sure they will kill her and she does want anyone knowing she is immune, so everyone thinks she is dead, D is NOT doing well. she goes back to killing Saviours, stealing from them, and generally making them pay. Nega does a whole opperation to smoke her out and succeeds, she is a total badass the entire time, Negan finds out Zane was lieing the whole time and SA'd Indi. She is SILENT and Negan does not know how to deal, zane tells him she is immune and he brings her back to the Sanctuary to heal and recover and is just generally annoying her. Zane is in the wind, looks like he will be meeting up with the Whispers. Daryl is going down hill, my dude is NOT doing well. Anyway, thats where we left off in Ch87.

I had a useless academic background and a bow, and got stranded on the wrong side of the Atlantic when the world died. One look at the unexpected Pleasantville in the middle of biter-town wouldn’t do any harm, would it? Except I found a LOT more than I was expecting. A sheriff, a sword-wielding badass, a little old den mother and a man so rednecked he made my hand itch for some pepper spray…if only I’d known how we’d end up.

Summary
Daryl Dixon scares the hell out of you climbing out of that damn creek. It takes hauling his ass halfway across Georgia and taking a bullet for him to realise that you're not half bad. He slowly starts to come around, despite grumbling about how much he doesn't like your singing, or that you can't use a gun for shit - and don't get him started on that ugly yellow tent of yours. It takes him a while before he starts to see for himself that he's found a best friend for life, and that he doesn't actually mind the colour yellow that much, after all.

Optimistic FMC witha sense of humour and a backbone that grows with Daryl and their relationship. I like the time skips with the canon events or if something has changed the flashback to the change. Ends after Terminus, HEA.

Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

Summary
Chrissy breaks the kiss and her cheeks hold a bright flush. She wipes the side of her mouth when some saliva has collected and smiles wide. “I think I like shotgunning.”
All Eddie can do is nod and stutter out, “Anytime you want.”
A spark in her eyes as she unwraps her legs from his and stands. Eddie misses her weight and his fingers twitch to hold her again.
“Anytime? You’d do that for me?”
Eddie would do just about anything to get her sitting on his lap again.
“Yeah, princess. I’ll do you the favor.”
-
She has to be careful. The feeling of being in control can get too addicting.

It never crosses Eddie's mind to deny Chrissy anything.

Summary
Mary Bennet agrees to spend the London season with the newly married Darcys. She discovers that she would still infinitely prefer a book. But hiding in the library at balls and parties is not the solution, as an odd young man keeps turning up there.
“'Miss Bennet', she says. I did not know my Conscience would have such an ordinary name.”
“I am not your conscience, sir,” Mary said, feeling made fun of and annoyed to be shaken out of her reverie for nonsense. “And whimsicality such as this, whilst charming in a child, is not so appealing in a grown man.”
“Wait,” he said. “Do wait. I am so used to speaking in that silly way with silly young women that I quite forgot myself. Please stay and talk a little more.”
(from the prompt "Mary's season in London. Her moralising is a trial to her sisters but in the end she outshines them all.")
