| After I first read this beautiful bitter-sweet WIP story, I made it a point to return from time to time hoping for more. There's something very true about love that this story conveys. Today I read the story again, and I realized that for me it seems, well... what more could you possibly say? I realize that it's in the WIP status, but perhaps it falls best into the category of wonderful and that should be enough. I looked up a quote that I heard which seems to apply. A poet Paul Valery said about his poetry or poety in general, "A poem is never finished, only abandoned." That answered it for me. This is not a poem, but perhaps it cannot be improved on. Thank you. You have a gift. |

| Well, that's a nasty scenario you've prepared for them. It's a bit unfair that they should suffer so much even after V. is gone. However, it's not really unlikely to happen, I'm afraid. |

| Cute story. Tragic about Luna though, but I loved how you described their fighting against all those death eaters. Fantastic job with lostGinny! Really well done on all points! |

| Very cute story! I hope that Ginny can get all her memories back and be able to get her old life back. Harry must have been in agony for those 5 years.. I'm so glad he found her, and I liked how you had Luna be the one to bring him out of his depression. I'm looking forward to reading more! |

I hope we find out what Ginny did for the half hour she was away from Harry.
The Harry and Luna story after Ginny was captured is very compelling. Luna is something else, a strong witch, a devoted friend and a lover when needed, even if it was only one kiss, but it was what Harry needed and I can't imagine Ginny minding one bit.
Ginny's last line leaves me wiondering if she knows that Harry is that boyfriend? |

Since I wanted to read from the beginning, I started with chapter one. To my surprise, I recognized the story from reading it some time ago. I recall liking it, and lo and behold, here's another chapter! What an interesting plot idea you've got here. I've never seen anything quite like it. It's well-written and very original.
Now, hoping that it won't be as long until the next update, I have to say that I'm really looking forward to the party at the Weasleys. At the same time I wonder what will happen to her memories and her magic. Will they return? Can they return? I truly think Harry would love her anyway but that doesn't stop me wondering! You've got a great start on showing her old character and I'm eager to see how she mixes old and new.
Keep up the good work! |

Really pleased that you have enjoyed this enough to write such lovely refiews. Sorry there is no update yet, but I haven't forgotten this. Just need to get on with Thorn in the Sand first. |
