 DobbyRoxMySox 2009-08-13 . chapter 32I just finished reading this fic and really enjoyed it. I don't think I've ever read a HP fic quite like this one actually. The way you depicted werewolves in the Potterverse was both heartbreaking and incredibly well thought out. From the characters; Roarke, Liam, and Remus in particular, to the detailed plotline, to the cute little scenes here and there that just put a smile on my face, I loved this story immensly and just wanted to let you know that:) |
 Moonpetal Lily 2007-08-09 . chapter 6Wow. This story is amazing. You are a talented writer with the passion to bring good ideas to life with words. (corny but true.) This is an incredibly long review from the entire story. I love the connections you created just in the first few chapters - Liam/Remus, Roarke/Remus, and Liam/Roarke. It's great to see how they tease each other while Liam learns to deal with werewolf prejudice. Wow, and I have trouble imagining Sirius as responsible, let alone a father. It would be great if you had a link to the back story that I'm sure is there...please? And Professor Malfoy? The horror! And I loved the cute awkwardness in chapter 12. Also, The two-scene back-and-forth in Ch17 really added to the tension. Did you purposely parrallel Liam leaving Roarke to New Moon?
Editing: (Please don't be scared, its for the whole story)
Ch5- "I mean, other than go throught daddy's papers" "Daddy" should be capitalized.
Ch6- "He wondered what she would do if her kissed her just then" should read, "he kissed her".
Ch7- "YOU have to be careful?" First, I'm not sure why you capitalised you, and also, a period makes more sense than a question mark.
Ch7- "Mr. Kent try to attack some Muggle..." should be "tried"
Ch9- "Oh, what will he tell daddy?" "Daddy" should be capitalized.
Ch10- "Mum and dad are waiting downstairs" "Dad" should be capitalized.
Ch10- "Not a word of this to mum and dad" "Mum" and "Dad" should both be capitalized.
Ch10- "Is this that Liam fellow dad met with..." Again, a proper name.
Ch11- "...claming that the school's facilities..." "Claiming"
Ch11- "You didn't even pay attention?" In this context, an exclamation would be better than a question mark.
Ch11- "Falling for with a 'Lupin Girl' seemed..." This sentence doesn't read well- I suggest removing "with"
Ch11- "Who, mum?" Proper name.
Ch13- Daily Profit should be Daily Prophet
Ch 13- "The point is that I want to help you! " You forgot end quotes on this sentence.
Ch14- "I think dad would rather she were out with you" Proper name.
Ch18- "...which of these creatures, if either, speaks truly " This quote needs to have end tags.
Ch18- "...under the influence of the potion when you infected your friend? Quamar..." This requires end tags, too.
Ch20- It was said at the begining of the story that wards were placed so Disapparation was impossible in the apartment. Therefore, unless they were removed after the trial, Roarke would have to storm all the way out of the building before Disapparating.
Ch22- "...leaning his body against a tree, (par)it doesn' change..." It shouldn't be a new paragraph, and there should be quotations before "it".
Ch22- "...tickets to next weeks game..." *week's
Ch25- "'So you want me to go first?' Liam asked?" period instead of question mark after "asked".
Ch26- "...I'll just take dad out into the lounge..." "We're just friends, dad" "And I wanted to tell you and mum..." Proper name, each time.
Ch26- "'So why don't you go and take Roarke somewhere private and dicuss it with her. Sirius walked..." There should be an end quotation here.
Ch27- "How many time have you asked for this..." *times
Ch29- "Is dad home?" "Thanks for the chat, mum" Capitalization.
Ch30- "Just that I find it unusual that mum would ask you" "Yes, thanks mum" Capitalization
Ch30- "She took roakre's hand and gave a small tug" Capitalization and misspelling of Roarke.
Ch30- "He reveled in the feel of her skin on His" Amazingly, Liam isn't God so "his" doesn't need capitalization.
Ch30- "'I don't think that at all" You forgot end quotes.
Ep- "Does mum know you're in here?" "I think that's why mum took pity on me" "...long dangle earrings and have mum do my hair..." "Sure dad" "Oh, dad, he is so talented" Proper nouns
Ep- "'He's not my boyfriend" forgot end quotes.
Also in chapters 5, 6, and 9 you've done the italicizing oddly. Though it isn't a flashback or thought, about half the story is italicized. It turns on and off seemingly randomly in the story...I think it would be a good idea to go back and make sure you un-italiced where you intended to.
Ok, looking at this, I expect you were scared when you saw it, but I couldn't help myself. You did a wonderful job, especially on the delicate subjects, and I hope you continue to write many stories to come. |
 goldennotblonde 2006-09-10 . chapter 32This is hilarious! I love the irony. No, I didn't get to read it ages ago when you finished chapter 30, so I've missed something that I feel I should be able to figure out and squee over. Who from the Lupin family married someone from the Black family?
I followed the homepage link in your bio for Meyer's work. Thank you, thank you, thank you! *smooches* I haven't even got halfway through the first book, and the DC book festival is already on my calendar. Heck, it was down before I got my hands on Twilight (just the summaries and excerpts made me drool). Only the end of this month! I couldn't believe an author I like is actually coming to my little town. They never come here; it's always somewhere else hours or continents away. |
