Basic Info
Bio
This is the recommendation journal of [info]nishatalitha. I've recently started reading some fanfics that I want to be able to keep track of without adding them specifically to my favourites list. Am also planning to recommend anything else that I find interesting.

"... it is haunted, you know."

Cazaril considered this matter-of-fact comment. "I shouldn't be surprised. It is the nature of a great fortress that as many die in it as build it, win it, lose it... men of Chalion, the renowned Roknari masons before us, the first kings, and men before them I'm sure who crept into its caves, on back into the mists of time. It is that sort of prominence." High home of royas and nobles for generations - rank on rank of men and women had ended their lives in the Zangre, some quite spectactularly... some quite secretly. "The Zangre is older than Chalion itself. It surely... accumulates."

Ista began gently pressing the thorns from her rose stem, and lining them up in a row, like the teeth of a saw. "Yes. It accumulates. That's the word, precisely. It collects calamity like a cistern, as its slates and gutters collect rainwater."

- Bujold, Lois McMaster, The Curse of Chalion, 2001

While I like angst and calamity, I like happy endinds more.
