Gina´s Home

Life, In General by dracofiend  (PG)
For Harry, assistant head of the Auror Division and father of three, it’s an ordinary life. Maybe helping Malfoy makes it a little less so.

Wonderful story!

I loved the Christmas party at the Burrow...it was just the way I would expect a holiday gathering with the Weasley family...Molly yelling, lots of food, people looking for their kids...and I really liked it that it was soo normal for them that Draco was there as well.

I loved the kids, especially in the scene where they went shopping.

I really liked it that Harry and Ginny got along so well, no big drama or heart break.

And I really loved the way the author wrote Harry and Draco as capable and responsible adults.

Fantastic story. Really enjoyed this one!

So Hard a Master by bryoneybrynn  (PG-13)
When it comes to love, not all dreams can come true. But how do you know which dreams to let go of and which ones to hold on to as tight as you can?

There are spoilers in the review!

Really wonderful story. I absolutely love the authors characterization of Harry and Draco...Harry with his idea of real love.

I really liked the beginning with Harry and Ginny...Harry who wants a family and Ginny who wants to live her life.

But I think the best part in the whole story was their time in the cupboard. I loved the conversation they had and their games of rock, paper, scissors and Harry trying to do shadow puppets. Draco indirectly confessing his love to Harry and Harry not understanding a thing.

I'm sure Draco was faking sleep when Harry visited him in the hospital.

Oh, and the end...after the kiss...Draco walking away...Harry going home...taking the sleeping drought...He wanted to sleep and forget

“I know I’m asking a lot. There are no guarantees. I can’t see the future; I don’t know how it will all play out. But I know I want you. And yes, I’ve been stupid. Yes, it took me forever to get here, but I am here and I’m yours if you want me. And I really, really hope you want me.”

I know nearly everybody quoted this back at you but it is really beautiful.

Thank you soo much for a fantastic story. I will definitely read this again.

The Great Divide by scarlet_malfoy  (R, HP/DM)
If one has wavering faith, can one still have unwavering hope? A tale of beginnings and endings, of getting to the bottom of what one can live with, what one can merely endure… and what one cannot live without.

This is a really lovely story.

I loved the way the author started the story...with Harry teaching the Auror class...you could really see that he likes doing that. I think it is the perfect job for him...he is still an Auror but teaching at the same time.

Harry and Draco being friends first is great...I really like it when the realize that they could have been friends. I also liked the way the others reacted to Draco.

The pensive memory was soo sad...the way the author describes them, soo young, too thin and not too perfect...and how Harry reacts to them.

Fantastic story!

The White Dragon by sassy_cissa  (R, HP/DM)
Even knights in shining armour need white dragons to save them occasionally.

This is a really beautiful story. It really makes you feel good. 

I loved how the author portrayed the characters...I really love Harry in this one...Harry as a Daddy is just too cute. He worries about little Teddy and tries to be a responsible adult and a father to him. It must be really hard for a twenty-two-year old to deal with a little child and trying to figure out what to do...I'm the same age and can't imagine how difficult it has to be...

Oh god, and Draco, the way he was portrayed in this story was fantastic and I really love his job..Dr. Dragon ;)

I also really liked the way the author described Harry's attraction to Draco.

Teddy was really brilliant...I loved the way he played with the dragons...the scene with the Mummy and Daddy dragons was soo sad.

It really is a fantastic story...just read it you will definitely feel better afterwards :)

I saw The Dark Knight last night and it was really awesome. Heath Ledger as the Joker was brilliant. I was not sure if I should believe everyone when they said it last month. So, when the film arrived in my cinema this week I had to watch it as soon as possibly. Not only the Joker was fantastic...I really liked the whole story line, Harvey Dent, Christian Bale, etc.

Furthermore, I got to see the HP trailer on the big screen!!!

Stolen from various people on my flist

Team Dragon:

Vigil by belleamante (NC-17, HP/SS)
The Veil was cold.

Wow, this is really powerful and intense. And I really liked it that Harry took the time to grieve even six months later.
Snape's character was so true and that just in a few lines. And of course he was the reason Harry went back to the living.

Really enjoyed it. Fantastic story!

Team Epilogue:

Breaking all the Rules by frayach (NC-17, HP/DM)
Malfoy is slowly wringing the last vestiges of pleasure from Harry’s life with all his rules and committees and agendas and reports. Or is he?

OMG, the author killed me with this!! I couldn't stop laughing and now I'm still laughing and can't stop.
I usually avoid crack!fics but I'm soo glad I didn't avoid this one.

Oh god, there are so many little things that were so damn funny, like Harry being the only one who was not lousing his hair. I could quote so many things that I liked but then I would just rewrite half the story. I'm so in love with all  characters...the relationship between Harry/Ginny...Ginny was so fantastic...and Hermione...and Ron not going to the club...Malfoy with his rules and regulations and dry monologues...

Ginny interrupting Harry to tell him that they have to go home was evil, really!! I was laughing so hard and at the same time cursing the author for doing that. Poor Harry.

Even through this story was really long, the end still come to soon, for me it was like I started a few minutes ago.

Umbridge...I so didn't expect that.

And Harry day dreaming while Draco was talking and talking and talking...and Harry addressing the club with "Friends, neighbors, colleagues, and fellow members of my children's play groups" or things like "Or Enlil or Anubis or . . ."

I could so hear Ginny saying things like "Oh, honey..." I could so imagine her tone of voice...Ginny...so much love!

I could go on and on about this story and will be definitely rereading it. This was just so damn hilarious. I'm still laughing. Don't know if I mentioned it yet or not but I love this story. Fantastic story!

Team Canon:

Wall of Glass by waterbird (PG-13, HP/DM)
After the war, Draco Malfoy finds that some battles are just beginning.

Oh, this is such a lovely story. It is really believable...you could really see how afraid, hurt, bored, etc. Draco is without him being molested or beaten up before that. It is not easy. The authors description sounds really realistic.

I loved the way the other prisoners reacted to Harry. And I liked that Stan befriended Draco and helped him getting used to Azkaban.

Harry was fantastic. Harry visiting Draco to see if he is alright and talking to Narcissa. The scene in which he tells Draco about his mother was stunning. Oh, and I loved the part where Draco asked Harry why he is visiting.

I think it was the perfect place to end this fic. Yes, it would have been interesting to know what Draco is going to do know and whats going to happen with Harry and him but that would have been a few thousand words more ;)

Really enjoyed it. Wonderful story!

Team Epilogue:

Homecoming by novembersnow (NC-17, HP/DM)
Harry thinks spending two weeks as a guest lecturer at Hogwarts will offer the perfect chance to get away from his troubles. Then he meets his assigned faculty guide: Potions Master Draco Malfoy.

There will be spoilers!

Wow, fantastic story. I still could read more of it even through it is pretty long.

The way the author wrote the divorce was so great because it was so believable. You could just imagine them being hounded by reporters even twenty years later. Oh, and really liked that Lily heard rumours about her parents and then asked them because I can really imagine that something like that could happen. Also really liked the way Ginny  was portrayed because you couldn't really blame her for what she did.

I loved Ron even through we only saw him a few times, the talk he had with Harry in the pub was soo much fun! This line was made of win:
"You?" Ron said. "Think of me. I want to know who it was you were tossing off back in school to develop that skill. It certainly wasn't your poor, neglected best mate."

Neville...great..visiting Harry at his house...knowing about him and Draco...soo much fun.

Draco...really liked it that he offered tea to Harry and then asked him about the rumours. Loved it that Harry didn't ask about the divorce and that Draco talked about it because of that.

Scorpius and Asp...Asp..this is a new one…liked it. Liked the unique way their relationship was explained.

Oh, and really liked it that the Slytherin captain, Draco and Scorpius said to him that he shouldn’t reveal secrets about the team…that was so them. And this line:
Malfoy snickered, and Harry shot him a withering look, which only made him snicker more. "Potty," he murmured, smirking.

I was laughing so hard when the headmistress caught them and afterwards when they confronted the kids!

Harry’s monologue at the end was so Harry and then Draco’s: "Merlin," he breathed. "You do mean it."
Soo perfect, really!

I enjoyed this story soo much.
