Hey, so I got online for Review Fest today and decided to review one of your older fics. This one is brilliant. The emotion you invoked with Harry's dreams and his feelings for Ginny were so real and powerful. Ending the story without killing either Voldemort or Harry was perfect, as it kept the focus on Harry's insecurities. Well done, I loved it.

Author's Response: Well thank you so much! I'm excited to see you participating in the Review Fest!

Thanks so much for the review! It's much appreciated! xD

Thanks for leaving it hanging like that! You build up all this emotion and even foreshadowed the wand connection and yet, it felt like a nice little surprise that he was able to find out for sure. Nice job. 10/10

 Report Review

Wow that was really powerful! well done!

That was better than I thought it would be at first.

Great story, but I thought you skipped between scenes too quickly. Like Voldemort suddenly appearing out of nowhere at Hogwarts. There are enchantments to anyone from coming in in the usual ways. That being said, I'd rate the story 8/10.

I liked the dreams. Of course, after dreams like these, Harry's anguish is very understandable. Obviously, James and Lily would never have hated him. They both give their lives that day to save him. But I can understand why Harry would think they did.

It was a good idea to add a bit of romance, with the presence of Ginny's curled on the couch, then talking to him, trying to reassure him. That was nicely done.

Good luck on the Halloween challenge!

Wow...I loved this one! I added it to my faves. I have to admit that this certainly puts a new spin on Harry Potter for me. I never even so much as wondered if Harry ever felt that way, ever wondered if his parents hated him, blamed him for their deaths. Quite a twist on the whole story of Harry, actually. I like it. It's got all the elements I love...angsty-Harry, darkness and then the bravery that we all know Harry has. Once again, a brilliant story! Keep up the great work!

I really liked this! Thinking his parents blamed him for their deaths was so "Harry." It reminded me of when he thought he was possessed by Voldemort after the snake attacked Mr. Weasley in OOtP. Great job!

 Report Review

oh, that was really good, and heart-wrenching. however, i think that voldemort coming was kinda random. maybe make a better transition. otherwise really cool!

 Report Review

The anguish in Harry seemed to be quite real in your words.

Nicely written

Great story idea! It seems natural that Harry would feel this way at some point, wondering if his parents ever blamed Harry.

I just have a couple of comments regarding word use and spelling:

"If only should could understand..." I think you meant to write, 'If only she could understand...'

"Never for once second, Harry James Potter." This should read, 'Never for one second, Harry James Potter.'

Also you wrote "loose" a couple of times instead of 'lose'.

You wrote "you're parents" a couple of times instead of 'your parents'.

And you wrote "Strait down to business," instead of 'Straight down to business'.

Hope this helps, and good luck with the challenge. :)

Author's Response: Wow hun!! Thanks so much!! I so missed that when I was going over it!!! Gotta love ya!
