in_a_peartreeThis is the Tree for slightlytookish! Below are the requested Pears it can be decorated with (beginning 24 December).
Username:slightlytookish
AO3 Username: slightlytookish
Request 1: Band of Brothers ficlets, art, or icons for any of the following pairings: Winters/Nixon, Liebgott/Webster, Babe/Roe. Canon era is preferred. Gen is great too. DNW: character death, unhappy endings, hurt with no comfort.
Request 2: The Pacific ficlets, art, or icons for Haldane/Jones. I would definitely prefer fix-its or something that stops short of their unhappy ending. Canon era is preferred. Gen is great too. DNW: focus on character deaths.
Request 3: Star Wars icons for Rey, Finn, Poe, the trio together or as pairs or alone
Request 4: MCU icons of Peggy Carter, Thor, Captain Marvel
Request 5: Doctor Who ficlets, art, or icons of Thirteen and/or Thirteen/Yaz
Request 6: Book recommendations. I read a lot of historical fiction, mostly set during WWII, and I’m always looking for more. I’d also be interested in fiction set during other periods of history.
Additional Information: Please let me know if anything needs to be clarified! Happy Holidays!

Date: 2020-01-06 11:08 am (UTC)Searching for Shona (1978), by Margaret J. Anderson - In 1939, a girl is supposed to be evacuated to stay with distant family in Canada, but on impulse she swaps places and identities with Shona, a girl from an orphanage being evacuated to the south of Scotland. Very sweet.
Enemy Brothers (1943), by Constance Savery - I...actually haven't gotten around to reading this yet (I've been saving it for when I need a treat!), but my younger siblings recommend it highly. And I love the other books by Constance Savery that I have read (like The Reb and the Redcoats, American Revolution fiction that I also recommend), so I'd be sure it was good even if I didn't have their assurances. Enemy Brothers is about two brothers, one of whom was raised in Germany to be in favor of their national ideals at the time, and the other of whom remained in England and tries to win his brother back. The book was actually written during World War II.
