I chanced upon your journal from hunting down L/R fics (Kudos to you for writing any!!) and I happened to see your review for The Beekeeper's Apprentice *is a sometime Sherlockian*. I must agree, it severely irked me when I read the first book, but it somewhat (slightly) gets better as it goes on. Thankfully, she kept Holmes in character and despite the relationship, there's never much romance. Then again, I never got through all the series either, so maybe I'm not the best judge.
Though, reading your back reviews, I'm glad to see you've come across Meyer! He's definitely one of the more famed pastiche writers and quite a good one. Another one I highly recommend you look up are the ones by Michael Hardwick, especially the Prisoner of the Devil.
Sorry for jumping in out of the blue, and hope you don't mind!
