April Fandom Reading Bingo Card

April is going to be favorites month. Roughly 3 per fandom, unless it's a series of short stories. Which is proving to be interesting.
Some of these fandoms - due South, FATF, CSI: Miami, and Sentinel - I haven't read anything but crossovers in close to or even more than a decade. Not that I'm crossing out crossovers but I do want to focus more on single fandom stories. But it does mean I either can't find some of my old favorites or I don't entirely remember the titles. It's only been recently (last couple years) that I've been good about marking stories as favorites or rating them somehow instead of relying on my memory. Ha. What memory. LOL
In the cases of Teen Wolf and Stargate: Atlantis I have too many favorites. Luckily for SGA there were a couple I specifically wanted to reread and then I kind of picked one at random. Teen Wolf I ended up using a randomizer to pick once I excluded anything I'd read since the beginning of the year.
MCU I tend to read series, long series, as opposed to individual stories but I did find three that were some of my top favorites.
Then there's Harry Potter. In general I don't read Harry Potter stories that are less than about 50k unless it's by an author I enjoy. And most of my favorite HP authors tend to write upwards of 100k. Soooo, I'm going to be devoting a good chunk of this month's word count to Harry Potter. Which, okay, isn't much different from other months but, yeah, about 400k is going to be HP.
It's going to be interesting. :>
