{Recently Read 1D Fics}
January 2021
These are all the One Direction fics I read and enjoyed in January. By the way, I’ve been doing these recs for three years now this month! I can hardly believe I’ve been doing these so long! Anyway, there are 21 recs here in all and are in order by word count and organized by pairing. You can also listen to my podcast to hear me talk about each of these fics as well as an overview of what was posted on ao3 in January! Please let the writers know if you liked the fics by leaving kudos and comments! Happy reading!
