This story was recommended by a couple users last night. Since we had just finished my umpteenth/Twi's first rereading of Xenophilia, we decided to give it a try, opening the first chapter this morning.
It's now almost 1am, and we wrapped up the final chapter. Yes, we binge read it in one day, and it was worth it! I'm a total sucker for romance, and happy endings, so freely admit my bias, but Twi enjoyed it too.
In this story, a stable portal between between Earth and Equestria has been opened, and we follow the adventures of a human whore pleasing ponies. Sure, that sounds like a crude clopfic, and while it is the latter, it's not just that. There's some unique characterizations, shared elements from other fanfics, an interesting take on Equestrian society, and like I said, Romance.
That's not to say it's perfect. There were several things I disliked about it, most notably, the protagonist was quite annoying at times, but since those problems are mostly subjective, I won't mention them further.
All in all, I'll give it a 2/3 hoof rating; definitely worth a read. In fact, we'll be starting on its sequel very soon.
