    Title: Blue Moon
    Author: The Carnivorous Muffin
    Rating: M
    Genre: Humor/ Romance
    Status: WIP
    Library Category: Other Fandoms
    Pairings: Bella/ Carlisle
    Summary: In some other universe, Edward was a little more insistent about that "you can just sleep with Jacob" plan that he proposed to Bella inside a tent. Replace Jacob with Carlisle, insert Carlisle's need to fix the dumpster fire that is his son's relationship, and add in a dash of upset Bella and terrible things ensue.

    This is basically a comedy, maybe it'll grow into something else later. A ridiculous premise played completely straight: Edward has the bright idea that, since Bella really wants sex before marriage, and he'd kill her, she should just sleep with Carlisle! It'll be great, problem solved!

    It's a gloriously entertaining trainwreck of second hand embarrassment and cringe. Edward, Bella, Carlisle, Esme and even minor secondary characters like Bellas father get a character and come alive in ways I'm totally not used to from Twilight. Which makes the contrast between Carlisles somber introspection, merry wedding preparations, the absurdity of it all, people being completely oblivious to it or pretending very hard even better.

    I’ve been reading this.

    I don’t know if it’s library worthy or not but it’s amusing and easy to read and complete fuckery.

    In terms of the actual writing it’s solid. The content I hesitated to recommend.

    Since it’s here though try a chapter. Too early for me to rate.

    Oh, I kept reading this and read more. I don't like Twilight much but this was interesting. For what it's trying to do, probably 4/5 if I round up? Certainly better than Twilight actually was, but it's still not a fandom I'm that into. Nor am I really into romance / dating type fics, which... well, this is at least more romantic than Twilight was, so there's that.
