Learning How to Fly Harry/Oliver
Jaylee writes boys beautifully, and the way she she describes flying cracks open the sky to the reader. You feel it, like you did as a child when that swing went so high, you couldn't see the ground and your heart was in your throat but you pushed higher. Her adult Harry is tangible and real, and this isn't fluffy cardboard Oliver, that everyman from every Percy/Oliver fic -- this is the maniac we all know and love. But we finally get to understand him. And seeing Harry through his eyes, we understand Harry a lot better, too. Which, given how many Harry fics there in the world, any author who can open a new vista has my vote.
