Yeah, a short post I'd definitely spend the time writing up stuff about them. My challenge is that I'm doing these with enormous numbers of fics (everything I thought worth saving for a particular fandom) and marking my favorites with a heart icon so people can see "OK, she liked that fic in particular for re-reading". (I also mark WIPs so people can avoid them if they don't like those - as many are permanently so - and I mark fics I think were exceptionally well-written, independently of the ones I like to re-read. The "favorites for re-reading" and "exceptionally well-written" fic groups have some overlap but it's definitely not complete.)

Some other comments are commenting that point in canon works well for them (at least to group things by installment), and I'm thinking I might do that - and sort by length beyond that, to give people other options for finding fics besides my ship -> author sorted posts.

Part of it, see, was having a way to group stuff from all over the Internet, so I have links to fics that people might otherwise not find at all, either because they never venture over to ff.n, or haven't stumbled across this person's LJ or Tumblr or whatnot. So I was partly trying to have a main "here's a large portion of the fics worth reading to get started with", and then they can explore the sites themselves for the rest, since there *are* ships and themes I won't read.
