I'm an avid reader of fanfiction from the Czech Republic (Czechia).

I like not only reading itself, but I also find the process of searching for interesting stories here on FF as sort of an interesting adventure. Sometimes a rewarding adventure, when I find a hidden gem where I least expect it, and sometimes a masochistic one, when I need to read through five stories that I later wish I haven't read, in order to find one I like. And as I've read well over hundred fics, I decided to begin to work on my own recommendation list, in hopes it could be helpful to other readers with the same taste.

I spend the most of the time in Harry Potter fandom, reading mainly mentor (severitus etc.) non-slash fics with Snape and Harry, but sometimes I make a foray into Jane Austen fandom.

2023 - my work on the list is on a long hiatus. I'm going to get back to it, because I need to put in order my notes about the stories anyway, but I'm afraid it might take another year until I can get back to it.

The following list of the stories I recommend is identical to the stories stored in my Favorites, but here it's in alphabetical order.
When I include an uncomplete story, it's because I deem it worth reading despite of it not having an end.

My favourites in alphabetical order, sorted by the fandom and the author: (under construction)

1) HARRY POTTER

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story. Alt 6th summer, post-OotP.

Far Beyond a Promise Kept by oliver.snape reviews
Snape never wanted anyone to know of his promise to Dumbledore, but has realised that he can protect Potter much better by taking a less passive role in the boy's training. Actually liking Harry Potter has never been part of his plan. mentor/guardian.
