Hello, I'm sunny and I am a Harry Potter addict (people around me say, "Hello Sunny."). Everyone says the first step to getting over an addiction is admit that you have one. But let me explain myself more clearly.
You see, I used to hate Harry Potter. I hated it so much that I refused to actually read the books. I'd heard things and wanted nothing to do with them. That is, until my mom bought the first movie, which I had been secretly dying to watch. I guess that's where it all started, with the movie. I must say that I fell in love.
That's when I started reading the books. I couldn't help but admire the young hero for everything he had to go through, and by the time I was done with the Goblet of Fire it was all I could think about. I have patiently (*ahem*) waited the release of two books and three movies, and with everyone I have a small celebration.
My thoughts and opinions about the movies (I'll only do 1-3 in case people read this who haven't seen the movie) are as follows:
Sorcerers Stone was very good. I thought it brought an extreme amount of hope to the story, which is very nice to see after reading Goblet of Fire. Chamber of Secrets was very well done. I loved the effects and I loved the basilisk and the acromantuala. AMAZING!!! I've seen it in spanish, french, and english. This is why I'm here ("we understand"). Prisoner of Azkaban I was kinda disappointed in. Probably because it was my favorite book, and left out my favorite scenes. It was my least favorite of all the movies so far.
I love all the books, but my favorite is Prisoner of Azkaban, as I already mentioned. I love PoA because that's when the marauders enter. I LOVE THE MARAUDERS!!!!!!!!
My mom and I had a competition about who was going to read the sixth one first, and in the end we both got a book (I finished it in like a day in a half, it took her a week).
I brain washed my religious best friend, who once hated the books along with her family, into falling in love with them.
When it's time for the books to come out, I have dreams like the book is going to explode in my hands after I get it.... or I'll finally get the book, and it has no words in it, just blank pages.
I have two stories on the web:
The Last Win, and
Harry Potter and the Soul Guide
Now you know all about my addiction. And that is why I am here. I want to fix it. I want to get my mind off of Harry Potter for awhile....
Wait, what am I saying? I love Harry Potter too much to just give it up. I won't be needing your services any longer (group of addicts get
nervous as I start screaming "I LOVE HARRY POTTER!!!" They have to carry me away in a straight jacket.)
BYE!!!

Aww... that was sooo, sweet. I'm glad Harry can talk to Remus now, and hopefully he can be his guardian. Wow, great story. 10!
Author's Response: hello sunshine- thanks for the review... erm not much else to say!
I loved it. It was sooo sweet. 10+more!
WOW! Awesome story! I'm so sad it's over. Good Luck, and thank you for giving me something to do while waiting for HBP. 10!
Author's Response: Thanks; I'll need all the luck I can get! I had a blast writing this story and then sharing it with everyone, and I'm glad you liked it!
I agree, this is like my absolulely FAVORITE story. I wouldn't give it a ten I'd give it a 1000.
Author's Response: Wow! My first 1000! Thank you!
Heehee. Ron and Hermione are so sneaky. GREAT chapter. Please update soon.
I agree with everyone else in saying that this was an awesome story. I can't wait until the next chapter!
Aww, that was sooo sweet. You are like my favorite author, I love all the stories you write. I give it 10.
Another great story. That was sooo sweet. Ooh, I love your stories. 10!
Ooo.... I liked it. I can't wait for the ext chapter.
YAYYYYY!!!!!!! I'm the first to review. Or, at least, I think I am. Anyway, great chapter. Awesome job on explaining the voices. It's cool that James and Sirius could do the same, and it's sad that Sirius felt it when James died. Again, great chapter. Another 10!!! You are on a roll!!!!!!!!!!!
Author's Response: I'm extra, extra happy that you enjoyed it, i wasn't sure if i was overdoing it when i included the Sirius and James thing but i'm relieved to know that you liked it. Thank you!
I don't know what to say. I don't like Percy, but yet it's so sad. Poor Molly, poor Arthur, poor Weasley's. *cry* And Harry dreamed it, and Ellie came immediately to his call. But wait, shouldn't she have been asleep? Or did she have the same dream, and was woken up the same time Harry was? Ellie is a very interesting character, and I can't wait to find out more about her. Anyway, another brilliant chapter. I can't wait for more. 10!!!
Author's Response: It's interesting that you've hit upon the fact that Ellie came so quickly, i'm not going to say anymore, other than stay tuned. I'm so delighted that you enjoyed it!
OMG, I haven't been reviewing. Oh, no. I loved it. It was very well written, as usual. It's sad though. As much as I HATE Percy, I feet bad for him. Anyway, another great chapter. Good job. 10!!!!!
Author's Response: It's nice to know that i can do that. To know that even though people hate Percy, they can still feel bad when i kill him, is a really nice feeling. It let's me know that i'm doing something right.
It's about time they start saying his name. I honestly think the not saying his name thing is silly, so I'm glad you're making them say it. Or should I say, I'm glad Ellie's making them say it. LOL!!!! Brilliant chapter, again!!!!!!!! 10!!!!!!!!
Author's Response: I think that they have to say his name. You can't fight something you can't talk about. *does a happy dance* On to your next review!
ANOTHER BLOODY CLIFF!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRR!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!! Poor Ellie. Please tell me you didn't kill her. Ellie my fave character in the story, you can't kill her. NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, great job, again. 10!!!!!!!
Author's Response: Yep, i'm a meanie and i'm proud to be so! I am so delighted that you like Ellie that much. It really brings a tear of pride to my eye.
YAYYY for Snape. I hope Harry kicks Malfoys butt, in the story, and in the books. LOL!!!!!!!! Ellie has got to come back, you can't kill her off. If I beg, will you keep her alive. Please, please, please don't kill Ellie off. 10!!!!!
Author's Response: I will promise you this: Malfoy will get his comeuppance. All this pleading makes me laugh, i have so much power!
Yes I hate you're evil cliffhangers. GRRRR!!!!!!! I loved this chapter. Harry needs to show some hope. He has to believe she'll live. There's more to the prophecy? Another brilliant chapter. 10!!!!!
Author's Response: More evilness on my part. I think that sometimes it can be hard to have hope, when everything goes wrong it can be hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Again, Harry has to show some hope that she'll live. He can't just say things like, I think you have to accept the fact that she's gone, because she'll never come back that way. Another wonderful chappie. 10!!!!
Author's Response: As i said in the previous review, when your in that time and place it can be hard to be hopeful. Thank you for another ten.
