oh, i love this kind of fanific! so randomly cool, you know? sort of like "how on earth did you actually come up with this?" but its so good! what a difference that would have made if Vernon died. you got harry's personality down spot on too! excellent job!
Ah, I was sure it would be Severus.....good for you for taking a different path. Poppy knew Remus well, and so knew a good bit about James and Sirius, too. The summer in Hogsmeade....this should be interesting....
This looks very interesting - I can't wait to see what you do with it. I can see several directions for you to take it and any one of them could prove quite entertaining.
I'll be looking forward to more - your writing style is pleasant and overal, you have good grammar and spelling. One friendly nitpick - in one paragraph you mention how Dumbledore calways has a way of "peaking" Snape's interest and I believe it should be "piquing" which is the spelling you use a little further on.
Anyway - so glad to see something new and different to read!
This looks like a story to remember to read. I try to keep up with WIP stories, and I'll put this near the top of my list. Thanks, it was really enjoyable.
Now that's an odd take. Since this is canon and phoenixsong locks in ships to canon, I won't complain too much that Harry doesn't get to stay with Hermione. Still, Madam Pomfrey is quite a surprise. This could be a good one.
This seems very interesting so far. Keep up the good work. By the way, I believe that quote came from Chamber of Secrets since Fawkes isn't mentioned in Philosopher's Stone.
I hate to point it out, but the quote about phoenixes is actually from The Chamber of Secrets; canon Harry doesn't meet Fawkes until Justin and Sir Nicholas are petrified and McGonagall takes him to see Dumbledore.
Excellent start, don't think I've ever seen this done before. Will be interesting to see how much the canon plot will change as a result from this. Can't wait for more!
that looks promissing!!! at least it's new an refreshing...i don't think i ever read anything similar
one question: is this supposed to go and cover all of Harry's Hogwarts' remaining years of schooling? Or is it just a Summer fic???
Anyway, keep up the good work and PLZ update soon!!!
