Sometimes, I’ll read something that I want to share with you and recommend that you check out, but that I don’t want to write a review/analysis of for a variety of potential reasons. Maybe it’s a drabble or a very short oneshot, and I just don’t have enough words to justify one, maybe it’s something that I just didn’t personally have all that much to say about, or maybe it’s something else entirely. Either way, whenever that happens, those will go here. I’ll be using five categorizations to divide these, depending on how much I enjoyed them: Excellent, Great, Good, Decent, and Average. If that sounds intuitive, it’s because it’s supposed to be. Welcome to the Reviewless Recs. I hope you find something worth reading here.
