Re: M/M Canons?

All the KJ Charles. All of it.

Do you like them all? They're very hit and miss for me, and the impression I've gotten in fandom is that that's a broadly held sentiment, just with the hits and misses varying.

I'm a bit of the same--I have loved a few of KJ Charles' books (Simon Heximal, Spectred Isle, Any Old Diamonds, but haven't really connected with the longer series.

For me her longer series vary in quality even within the series. In both Society of Gentleman and Sins of the Cities, I adore the second book, like the finale, and am indifferent to the first one. I feel like she does her best when she's not worried about introducing a verse or wrapping it up.

ITA. A lot of the time her work doesn't hit the spot for me, but when it does, I love it. I think she's better at standalones or loosely connected books than series.

I've read all of her historicals and liked every one except for the first Society of Gentlemen book. I'm not fannish about all of her ships, though--I enjoy them well enough in canon, but would only request and/or offer...maybe 10 or 12 of them.

Not "all" for me, but I deeply love Spectred Isle and Simon Heximal.
