Genre: Humour
WIP?: No
Why This Must Be Read: This is the perfect example of how a short story, regardless of whether or not it's fanfiction, should be written. The story is both touching and funny without being over-dramatic, and contains one of, if not the best, surprise endings I've ever come across in fanfiction.

Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: I'd classify this one solely as romance, but it's far from fluff.
WIP?: No
Why This Must Be Read: While this fic contains more of an introspective Penny than I'm used (albeit one that works perfectly), the real highlight of this fic is the way
cereal has taken a small piece of canon information (that Sheldon has a brother), and worked him so perfectly into the Sheldon/Penny dynamic, using him as a catalyst for Penny's realisation of her feelings. We've never even seen this brother on the show, and yet, he feels exactly like he could fit into the plot perfectly.Fandom Category: The Big Bang Theory

Fic Title: What Science Cannot Cure

Rating/Warning(s): G
Genre: Romance
WIP?: No
Why This Must Be Read: This is one of the first fics I read, back when this show's fandom was little more than a blip in LJ's existance, and so, the fact that I still remember reading it, so long ago, says a lot for how much I appreciated Sheldon's characterisation in this. He's just so perfectly Sheldon, rational and overly-scientific and so befuddled by love.
