Recommendations for February's Book Club. We will be doing a poll in the last week of January to select one long (completed) fanfic and one short fic. Long fanfics must be between 20,00 to 300,000 words. Short fics are 20,000 or shorter. If something is part of a series, it won't be added to the poll unless it's the first story or the story before it has already been discussed our book club. Here are my recommendations (I'm only doing one of each this time, but you may do as many as you'd like). Long Fics:Secrets and Lies - by Caro words: 80,390 A BtVS/AtS crossover set after BtVS "The Killer in Me" and AtS "Calvary." Just as Buffy takes some steps forward in her relationship with Spike, she learns what's been happening in Los Angeles. Oneshots: Certainty - by Myrabeth words: 2,345 Every Scooby wedding needs a demon wedding crasher, especially if the bride is a slayer. AtS Season 5 canon is broken, the events we know taking place out of order and over the course of two years. Buffy POV

OK. One-shot! Sleeping Demon by C. Roxane
Sometimes a little sleep really can make things all better. (Set late in Season 7, after Giles and Wood try to murder Spike, but before Faith arrives.) Long fic! My Life Closed Twice by AnarossPost-Not Fade Away. Buffy seeks Spike's remains, but then finds him in the most unusal place.

I'd like to request Spike's Demon v's pants by ChryshCn. Its a tiny little fluffy one that I think lots of people would enjoy.

Thursday's Child by zabjade words 135,521 Shortly after the events of “The Replacement”, Buffy and Spike are accidentally caught up in a demon fertility ritual, leading to a violent assault and a very strange pregnancy. Compelled by the ritual to do whatever it takes to protect her unborn child, Buffy also has to deal with an angry and needy Riley, a traumatized Spike, a sick mother, and a hellgod out to use her sister to open up a door between dimensions.

Can I suggest The Writing on the Wall by Holly for the long fic (130,820 words)
"There was no body to bury. There was no funeral. There was nothing but the three rules and the knowledge that a thousand years of torment was nothing compared to a world without her in it. Spike embarks on a journey through the Gates of Hell to rescue the one he loves, but in order to save her, he must risk losing himself."
and Between the Empty Places by StEphiny for the short fic.
"When Buffy's at her lowest, Spike gives her the strength to go on. What happens if Spike and Andrew return from their trip a little early, and Buffy realizes she's not alone during the mutiny?"

So, as a long fic we have: Bringing light into darkness by Wonder and ashes A Slayer who thinks for herself, a vampire who was made wrong, and a series of events that inevitably draws them together. Set in an AU world where Angel never got a soul. Posted as part of 2015's Challenge Month!
As a short fic: Service the girl by thrmadkatter13 For the chance to be with Buffy, there was nothing that Spike wouldn't do. He would even… follow her every order, just to touch her.
