| Very good story. Very true to character. It moves along promptly and smoothly. I can completely believe that Ginny and Hermione could have had this exact conversation when Ginny declared she'd given up on Harry. Great job! |

| Somehow, this makes me sad. Harry has no idea what's going on, but in a way, it seems to be understood in canon that it's all his fault. |

Bella is that correct? I'm new here so I'm not that used to this but after reading giving up I can't stop, it is great! it really gives us girls/women a perspective on that we can do anything if we put our mind to it more so when it comes to boys. I LOVE IT!!! |

Very, very well done. I like this. I've known of a few people who are bothered by the idea that Ginny and Hermione are friends, but it becomes quite obvious in the fifth book that Hermione knows Ginny on a personal level, knowing things that Ron doesn't or any of the other Weasleys do for that matter (except perhaps Molly... who knows?) Still, I like this portrayl of a scene as Ginny declares this. Reminds me a bit of my roommate (though the next day she-- my roommie-- would probably go off on the question 'why am I giving up, though... I'm closing my heart off and blah blah blah' you get th pic... love her to death, though)
I especially liked the little side comment of 'just like Ron', especially since we know Ginny takes after the twins more than anything, which I think shows through with the 'tomorrow I'm going to ask him if he still wants that date', though I'm not sure you meant to make that paralell. It just reminds me of Fred asking Angelina to the Yule Ball (at least I think it was those two.... pretty certain, but I don't have my book to double check).
Now that you're probably wanting to scoop your eyes out with a spoon after such a long tedious review, I'll say thanks for writing such a fun one-shot, and I can definitely see why it's the story of the week.

| A joy to read, absolutely. Definitely one that I would reccomend. I'm jealous how you write this pair together so very well, and convincingly, too. :) Short and sweet, just how it ought to be. You should be proud of this work. ;) :D |

| This reminds me of some of the whispered conversations that go on at
night between me and my friends when we're all at camp together. It
seems as if Ginny isn't really over Harry, as much as she's trying to
convince herself of that. Perhaps she's just using Michael as a
distraction so that she can try to actually get over him. Sure, she's
given up on him, but what's going to happen if Harry starts to return
her feelings? Excellent story. I'm hoping for a sequel of some
sort.

| Your dialogue steals the show. The banter back and forth between the girls is rapid, humorous and brings a smile to my face. Thank you. |

| Ooh. Ginny sounds so unconvincing. You can tell she still likes Harry. And Hermione's so distracted she doesn't even notice. This does explain why Hermione would think that Ginny got over Harry, even though she's friends with Ginny. I wonder what Ginny expected from Hermione when she walked in. Maybe for her to say that Harry just hasn't opened his eyes yet? It's kinda sad that Hermione thinks Ginny's wasting her time with Harry. |
