you know in booktok when people say ‘*author* basically raised me’ ?? well i have that, but its kinda weird. obviously rick riordan, cause his books were the ones that made me realize how much i loved reading. then chris colfer, cause he’s a genius and when i read them for the first time i just fell for every single character. little me who loved disney movies loved tlos just as much. then there’s james riley, and that’s the weird thing. i never read one of his books completely. i read the first 100 pages of half upon a time but i never finished it. and i started story thieves but also dropped it. and somehow, still, i feel such a connection to his books and the way he writes. i used to reread story thieves all the time, but i have never read the end. never. and i have no idea why. i just dropped it every time.

Ok so I just reminded myself of a book series called Story Thevies.
Non- spoiler plot: A kid named Owen finds out that one of is classmates Bethany can travel through books as shes half fictional. She has been traveling through books ever since her father dissappeared and is trying to find him. Through shenanigans fictional characters appear in the real world and Owen and Bethany have to find away to put them back.
(Spoilers)
Holy shit are these books meta!
Ok so in the fifth book the final confrontation takes place in a world built out of writing concepts.
There are three levels to reality the real world, the fictional real world, and the fictional world
Ths real world is supposed to be our world btw
The main villain is a fictional character who became self aware and wants to permanently split the fictional real world and the fictional world (he wins, twice in the series and maybe in many many failed attempts of Owen trying to beat him)
All the books are in different genres
1) Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi, Fantasy
2) Mystery
3) Superhero (Comics)
4) Choose your own adventure
5) Dystopia
At the end of Book 3, Nobody (the villain) puts Owen (who is actually outside of the story bc plot reasons) into a real world (supposedly our real world) choose your own adventure book, you the reader in Book 4 help him and this girl Kara Dox escape
Oh Owen has a mechanical heart bc he played the part of a main character's story who was in the fictional real world at the time and Owen had to replace his heart. Also the reason why Nobody wins in one timine.

!!! Contains spoilers for the Story Thieves series! !!!
I was re-reading Story Thieves lately, (great series) and honestly was like "why is Bethany the main hero?" People always seem to forget that while Bethany was the one to become the possibilities, Owen was the one, in the end, to defeat Nobody. Not only that, but he had tried millions of thousands of times to do it. And all the Owens had died, and he still did it!! He was always rational, and honestly was the best character in the series. Everyone always talks about Bethany though and while I love her with my whole heart and soul, more people need to realize she wouldn't even had been able to do that it Owen hadn't defeated Nobody, something not one Owen had done before. That's all, and thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

Hi! By the time this posts, it should be well beyond the debut of the second series, so I hope you all are doing okay! I am ISO crossovers with small or obscure fandoms which might be more difficult to search. I enjoy recs from popular crossovers as well! But sometimes there’s only one fic in a category which can get buried, and I’m specifically looking for that random good omens- tiny-fandom crossover where someone picks up one of their obscure old fav and creates something exciting with their love for good omens. Thank you kindly!
Hello! This was actually a lot of fun to search for! There's no 'easy' way to do it, but if you want to go hunting yourself I recommend using AO3 to filter out the popular crossover fandoms by adding them to the 'tags to exclude' list and just browsing through what's left. These aren't all necessarily small fandoms, but they don't have loads of crossovers with Good Omens. I'm recommending these ones simply because they sound fun and I want to read them myself!...
Perfect Books by risky_writing (G)
When Ted was looking for a book to perfectly communicate what he needed to each of his players, he found himself in the most peculiar bookstore in London. But, it sure is a swell place.
The lovers, the dreamers, and me by hapax (G)
A frog with a dream. An angel with an assignment.
A pig with regrets. A demon with a mission.
The crossover that nobody asked for, but everybody needs.
Hell and Back by anticyclone (T)
"Perhaps we could assist you with the …subjugation… of this angel," Winifred suggested, which made Crowley groan again and Anathema cringe. Aziraphale just rolled his eyes. "You see, I still have a connection to my Book, and I need to bring it back to Hell with me."
"This book? With the eyeball?" Crowley looked at it, and then up at Aziraphale, who smiled at him. The demon turned back to Winifred. "That's not happening."
The Sanderson sisters have been in Hell for some three hundred years and have still not had the pleasure of being introduced to Satan. But Winifred thinks she has a way to rectify that, if only she can get her hands on her Book. Luckily, some angel put it on an unprotected shelf, where it's able to find itself a witch.
Ineffable Dogma by ThetaSigma (E)
Aziraphale and Crowley find out there is apparently a massive plot threatening all of creation. With a bit of experience stopping the End of Everything, they set off to make sure nothing goes wrong. Which is a good thing, as no one told Bethany & Co what was really at stake. In the end, it takes all of them -- Bethany & Co and the Ineffable Husbands -- to fix this.
***
Bethany has the feeling, on and off, since they left the club with the shit demon, that they’re being watched. Oh, she knows that both Heaven and Hell are watching their actions pretty fucking closely, really, but it doesn’t feel like that.
It’s like someone, maybe several someones, are following them, following her.
She catches glimpses, sometimes. Of red hair, or a scowl, or white hair, or a cherubic face wreathed in disappointment.
But it’s gone as quickly as it came and she’s left doubting if it ever happened.
"So Fetch" Omens by IneffableAlien (T)
After sixteen years of van life with her religious hippie parents, homeschooled Azi is enrolled in public school for the first time.
The Divine at the Warfront by creativeimagination206 (T)
In the throes of the Korean War, Aziraphale is sent to a mobile medical unit near the front to address the sudden influx of prayer from that area. With Crowley by his side, the angel must determine and straighten out the cause of the heaven-sent pleas, all while navigating the unfamiliar territory of the 4077th and the rather eccentric cast of characters that await them.
The Starting Hinge by lucky_spike (T)
When a rare book collector is mysteriously killed, DI Barnaby and DS Winter are on the case. Meanwhile, the question of what will become of the victim's extensive library stirs a small group of rare books collectors into a furor. Who can be trusted?
-
This is predominantly a Good Omens fanfic with some Midsomer Murders thrown in just because I could do it and I wanted to. Contains death of an OC and (obvs) murder and attempts thereof. Nothing gory, though, so party on.
