Yuletide Recs III

Special Yuletide Madness Edition, aka: the shorties.

Better Call Saul

Always something smoldering somewhere: post season 3 AU with terrific Jimmy and Chuck interaction

The Princess Bride:

MorgenCon: William Goldman's novel worked with the literary conceit of being only an very much abridged edition of a grand satiric and historical ouevre by Simon Morgenstern. This author ran with the concept and gives us the programm for a convention of Simon Morgenstern fans. Readers, I'm still on the floor with laughter. Also I want to attend this convention.

Star Trek:Discovery:

A Vulcan Christmas: what it says on the tin. Every now and then, even messed up Vulcan-human families enjoy a fluffy holiday experience. The Sarek/Amanda dynamic is golden. :)

The Haunting of Hill House (tv)

Hidden: Theo character portrait through the years, sharp and poetic.

Historical Fiction:

A.D.1504 in which celebrated master painter Albrecht Dürer and bff Willibald Pirckheimer enjoy more than a bath together. An endearing mixture of humor, angst and overall comfortableness with each other, and I think you can read it even if you don't know much or anything about the German Renaissance.
