A good first chapter. I was very interested by your summary, and now I'm so glad I decided to read the story. You are doing an excellent job so far, and I am really excited to read more. Keep up the good work!
Author's Response: Thank you for the review. I\'m very glad that my summary is compelling. Hopefully others will follow in your footsteps.
The Way Home by RoxyMarie
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Three months have passed since the last time Harry Potter was seen. This is the story of a young man trying to find his way home.
Date: 11/09/06 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Moving On
Oh, a very sweet chapter, probably my favorite so far! You write very well and now I really want to know how Harry will get home! Keep up the excellent writing.
Author's Response: Wow, thanks! Another chapter very, very soon.
Date: 11/22/06 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Homecoming
Yay! A very sweet, happy ending, I loved it! Good job, you write extremely well, and I hope to read another story by you soon. Kudos to you.
Author's Response: No new story anytime soon, sorry. I\'m fixing to go to Switzerland for a semester, so I\'m buckling down and about to sell my computer. I\'m glad you liked the story though.
Date: 10/02/06 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2: The Hunt
That was so terribly sad, if the first chapter wasn't bad enough! I have to say that I don't feel all that bad for Draco thought, I can only say he had it coming. I hope Harry finds his was home soon!
Author's Response: I don\'t feel bad for the nut either. He was going crazy anyways, if Harry wouldn\'t have done it, he would have offed himself. I\'ve got no sympathies for him. Thanks for another review!
Date: 11/16/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5: A Stray
Ooh, everything is getting better! A wonderful chapter, I already can't wait to read more. It's terrible that they would spy on Ginny like that, but hopefully Harry will be home to protect her soon! Once again, wonderful job.
Author's Response: Thanks a lot! I appreciate the review. I\'ll update again soon!
Date: 09/26/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: We Have to Find Him
Ooh, well, you've already left me hanging here. So far so good, you write wonderfully, and I really look forward to reading more. Poor Ginny! And of course the only person who could invent hair potions to tame Hermione's bushy hair would be Lavender Brown. Kudos.
Author's Response: My beta got a kick about the hair tonic as well. Thanks for reviewing.
Enchant Me, Then by mekelon
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily Evans and her best friend, Alice Eston, spend a free period together in camaraderie and bliss. Until, of course, the newly instated Head Boy comes to ruin their fun. This tale is a one-shot exploration of the prelude to Lily/James.
Date: 10/06/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
An interesting one-shot. It's so neat to read all the varying ideas on how Lily could have finally fallen for James; you did a good job at setting them on the path. I hope to read more from you.
Author's Response: Thanks MagEd! I\'m glad you enjoyed the one-shot. I do have more pieces of fan fiction in the making. One is a chaptered story called \"Sixteen is a Number\" which you might want to look out for as it will hopefully be on site very soon.
A Stolen Past by nuw255
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: Fifteen-year-old Harry Potter wakes up in his cupboard under the stairs at number four, Privet Drive with no memory of the past five years of his life. What happened to his memory? What do his strange dreams mean? And most importantly, how will he survive in a school for incurably criminal boys?
This is primarily a mystery, with a bit of shippiness thrown in here and there. Of course, if I told you WHO is involved in the shippiness, that would ruin part of the mystery, wouldn’t it?
This story takes place immediately after OotP (and thus disregards HBP).
Date: 11/12/06 Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 16: A Bumblebee
Wow. That was an amazingly good story. I was bored out of my mind on a rainy Sunday morning and so I thought I'd try this story . . . and it's wonderful! One of my favorite fics, no doubt about it. You write wonderfully and you keep the plot alive without revealing too much. I especially like Tyler and hope that his part in the story isn't over yet. I'm also crossing my fingers that his dream girl is my favorite Ginny Weasley! Once again, an amazing story, I look forward to reading more.
Author's Response: I\'m glad I was able to brighten up your day. Thank you for your kind words. I\'m sorry to say that Tyler won\'t be appearing again in this story, but he WILL be back in the sequel. As for the identity of the dream girl, I think a lot of people have correctly guessed by now, but I don\'t want to just come out and say it. You\'ll find out in the next chapter who she is, though, so there shouldn\'t be too much of a wait. :)
Date: 11/13/06 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Harry’s Dream Girl
Ah, some romance, it only makes it better! A wonderful chapter, the characters acted very canon and it was well written. I can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you liked it. I\'ve still got to revise the last chapter one last time before posting it, but as soon as it\'s ready it will be up.
The Auction by KASK
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Every Christmas Eve there is a dinner for the most prominent wizards, where dancing partners are auctioned off. Not only is Lily Evans forced into going to this auction, but because of a practical joke, she’s up for auction! But, thanks to a black-haired boy, the night may not be so bad…
This will be three chapters
Date: 10/11/06 Title: Chapter 1: Favor for Melody
Good beginning. You write very well and that summary really caught my attention. I look forward to reading more.
Author's Response: Thank you.
Reciprocated Feelings by Niamara
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: "Well, if it was me, I wouldn’t mind it if a girl just came up and snogged the life out of me." Through dreams, laughter and, strangely, homework, Lily comes to realize that James isn't all that bad after all. Lily-James oneshot.
Date: 08/15/07 Title: Chapter 1: Reciprocated Feelings
I don't read fanfiction very much, I've become too involved in my own writing, but I'm glad I decided to read this! It was very well written, and I loved the banter back and forth between Lily and James, especially at the beginning. Also, as an allergy-stricken girl, I found myself relating to Lily and her constant sneezing, I even smiled to myself when she stuffed a bunch of tissues into her pockets, as I have done that on many occasions ;) Excellent job, I really did love it.
Author's Response: Aww, thank you so much! I have a friend who\'s practically allergic to everything, so I know what you mean. I\'m really glad you liked it! Thanks for reviewing. :)
For Reasons Unknown by ally1123
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Lily Evans and James Potter are in their seventh year of Hogwarts. As the year progresses new freindships, relationships and threats begin to unfold. No one expected any of this to happen. Lily Evans was never to fall for James Potter and Hogwarts was always to remain safe. But as the threat of the Dark Lord increases nothing that happens is ever expected.
Date: 11/08/06 Title: Chapter 2: Changes
I have read a billion Lily/James fics, as well as written a couple of my own, so I can safely say that this is going to be an excellent fic. The first two chapters were good introductions but not boring and you've done a good job beginning Lily's changing opinion towards James. Very well done so far, I look forward to reading more.
Author's Response: That\'s great to hear because I was actually just wondering if pehaps my first chapters are a tad bit boring and if Lily\'s changing feelings seemed realistic. It\'s hard to tell when you\'re writing the story because you\'ve thought about it and read it over so many times that it automatically seems boring and it is impossible to tell whether or not others will as well. Thanks for the review!
True Love Lost by nuw255
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: ONE SHOT: A woman sits alone in a cell, her thoughts consumed by her pain and loss. Finally, she gets a chance to face the one who took the life of her one true love.
The dripping had been constant from the moment she had been locked away; she suspected that her captors had placed her in this specific cell in hopes that it would drive her mad.
They needn’t have bothered. The only man she had ever loved was dead. She was already mad.
This is definitely not my usual style, so I’d love to know what you think.
Date: 11/11/06 Title: Chapter 1: True Love Lost
While I generally don't go for these sorts of fics, I love your other stories so decided to give it a shot. It was a very interesting take, showing that even Death Eaters like Bellatrix are human. Very well written and thought out, I enjoyed it.
Author's Response: I\'m glad you enjoyed it. Honestly, I don\'t generally go for these sorts of fics either, but the idea struck me one day and just wouldn\'t leave me alone until I wrote it.
Date: 12/19/06 Title: None
Oh what a good idea! Of course Lily would get bored at prefect meetings, I mean really, even she's human! That's a very good idea, to have her unknowingly agree to take care of James! An excellent start! Wow, I just used way too many exclamation marks. Huh. Guess I got the point that I like it across just fine :)
Author's Response: Exactly! And it\'s such an interesting plot twist. (lol) And no, you can never give me enough question marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for the review!
Date: 12/19/06 Title: None
Darn! I clicked the next button only to get told the next chapter hadn't been updated! Hopefully it will be validated soon, however. Another good chapter, I can't wait for them to get Hogwarts and Lily's 'job' to start. My favorite lines would have to be: “Something about Quidditch, Potter, and you in a nurse’s uniform.” and "No!” said Lily. “Maybe. Yes! He’s awful you guys! His name’s Vernon Dursley, he’s the size of this compartment, and he knows!”
Author's Response: Me either. The next couple of chapters are going to be a lot of fun to write. Chapter 4 has been in the queue FOR EVER!!!!!!! Thank you for the favourite moments!!! (and the review)!
Meet the - Children? by Winged Artemis
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily Evans is a cheeky, brainy, hopeless romantic seventeen-year-old Head Girl with a sour temper. James Potter is an arrogant, hilarious, prank-pulling seventeen-year-old Head Boy with an immature head on his shoulders. Lily loathes James and James loves Lily. Blahblahblah.
However, when a mysterious locket and a very wacked Headmaster inform the two of them that their son is in grave danger, James, Lily, and of course, Sirius, are magically transported to the future to meet James and Lily's son and the state that the magical world is in.
A twist of mystery, fun, romance and some Sirius humor! And with a wee bit of J/L, H/G, and R/Hr!
WARNING: Tree climbing Dumbledores, valuable pieces of jewelry, and an ecess of sugar are contained inside - oh, and HBP is disregarded.
See profile for update information.
Date: 12/05/06 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter Two - To the Future
First off: Excellent story. I saw you reviewed mine, so looking at your profile I saw the story and the summary alone interested me. Once I started reading I was hooked with the idea and disappointed to find myself at the end of the second chapter! I can see so many things happening next -- not to mention you write splendidly -- that would make this one of my favorite stories (and I have been reading fan fiction for longer then anyone should)! So far the plot has been going along very quickly, but hopefully that'll be for the better! It'll be interesting to see how Lily and James respond to seeing Harry, Lily especially, and how they manage to act around them. Will Harry ever mention Sirius in passing? That would be interesting! Once again, I have nothing but good to say and I look forward to reading more.
Author's Response: Oh, squee! ::does dance:: I find the story really interests people. I\'ve got about four times as many people who\'ve added this story to their favorites rather than my otehr one, and about a little less than twice as many reviews. Thanks for the wonderfl comments! In Chapter 3 they meet Harry and Ginny and a few other little characters (the next chapter is like, 2/3 of the way done). I haven\'t decided if I want to put Snape into this, seeing as I can\'t write him worth diddlysquat. But yeah, Sirius, James, and Lily will learn about... everything. Anyway, thanks for your awesome review!
A Past Reclaimed by nuw255
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Sequel to A Stolen Past. Please read that story first, as this one really won’t make sense if you don’t.
Harry Potter has rejoined the Wizarding world after a year-long absence, but still has no memory of his time at Hogwarts. Will he ever get his memory back? Will he be able to pass his classes without it? And most importantly, will he ever be able to defeat Lord Voldemort? Read on as the last of the mysteries introduced in A Stolen Past are finally revealed.
This is a story of friendship and mystery, with a healthy dose of H/G thrown in for good measure.
Date: 12/16/06 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Trial
That is terrible -- poor Harry! I can imagine Umbridge doing that, she's just so horrible! Hopefully Dumbledore will be able to fix the wand . . . or something. . . . And what will happen with Ginny now?! This was one of the best chapters yet, very well written and canon compliant. Excellent job, I can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: Well, you know Dumbledore: he\'s always got something up his sleeve. The question is, what is it? And will it work? As far as what will happen with Ginny... I can\'t say anything without ruining it. Sorry. Thank you very much for reviewing!
Questioning the Freak and the Whale by Phenioxsong22
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Lily has planned this meeting from the day she and James began dating. First, there would be the greetings between James and her parents. Then, dinner would come. This would be closely followed by a time to just chat and have her parents and boyfriend become acquainted with each other. Everything would be perfect. But this all changes after her sister’s insufferable boyfriend shows up, “Black” magic goes haywire, and her parents don’t return from ‘their honeymoon all over again’ until the next day. Couples battle it out, and it seems no one will make it out in one piece after three arm wrestling matches, a bounding black dog, and an angry exchange. This meeting is certainly not going as planned...
Chapter 7 Updated!!
Date: 12/10/06 Title: Chapter 1: An Angry Exchange and Nervous Pacing
Ooh! This story sounds wonderful already, you wrote a great beginning. I love how you portray all the characters, it seems so realistic and is funny as well. Excellent job, I'm already eager to read the next chapter!
Author's Response: Thank you...and praise from one of my favorite authors, it has been a great day!
In Love With a Potter by solemnlyswear_x
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily Evans just may be falling for a certain someone...
A parody of the carol Away in a Manger.
This is a submission for the Winter's Tales Prompt # 2, written by solemnlyswear_x of Gryffindor.
Date: 12/12/06 Title: Chapter 1: In Love With a Potter
Very sweet. I can't write poetry to save my life, but you most certainly can! Excellent job.
Author's Response: Wow, thanks! I never write poetry, but I had a lot of fun with this. :]
One Hour by SimplyMe
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: ‘She told me I could have anything. I asked her for one hour. One entire hour where she would be completely mine. I only hope no one will ever find out, not even her.’
Date: 01/15/07 Title: Chapter 1: One Hour
I must admit, I hate Draco/Hermione fics as I am an adamant Ron/Hermione shipper. However I was intrigued by the summary of this fic and decided to give a whirl. It was excellent! You write wonderfully and managed to make me feel bad for Draco, a rather difficult task. Very well done, really.
Author's Response: Thanks you so much! I was on the verge as to what Draco should feel about this. I decided to play on his \'good\' side a little rather than have him plainly take advantage of Hermione\'s double because I think this would probably be more appropriate in the \'angst\' category...
