Re: Overrated fanfics?

Alone On The Water by mad_lori is one of the most kudosed fics in the Sherlock fandom, and also one of the most well known. Everybody talks about it like it's some masterpiece of sadfic, but I just find it...I don't know, excessive and lacking in subtlety, I guess. I mean, the premise is that Sherlock gets diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and does within the month. So of course it's sad; if you use a box of 'sad' flavored cake mix you're going to get a 'sad' flavored cake.

I like mad-lori's writing a lot, I just don't like that particular fic. But so many people rave about it.
