riegert8 2008-06-13 ch 37,	abuseI think that this is a great story, one of the best Harry & Fleur pairing. Well for the most of the story, the most sad part of the story is that Harry & Fleur realize that there romance relationship did not work and went back to friends. I know you said Harry & Fleur would be together at the end, but at this time they are not together and look like they never be. I admit I did not plan reading the last chapter again, I only came to this story to put up under author alert. Beside it never too late to make a review.
LordNemesis 2008-05-19 ch 38,	abuseWheres the Sequel?
curlyjr 2008-03-12 ch 37,	abuseIt was good but I wish you would do the sequel.
Sheilawisz 2008-03-07 ch 2,	abuseChapter 2 was much better, I feel sorry for Fleur! I like the way you describe her in this fanfic, I'll keep reading now... And yes, it's very understandable that Harry is feeling connected to her, after what has happened to both of them...
stealacandy 2008-03-05 ch 15,	abusetHIS IS CONTINUING MY REVIEW FOR CHAPTER 16, AS FF_NET DOESN'T LET YOU POST MORE THEN ONE REVIEW PER CHAPTER, OR ALTER YOUR SUBMITTED REVIEWS IN ANY WAY, SO i POSTED IT FOR THIS CHAPTER INSTEAD. fIRST, i'D LIKE TO APPOLOGISE FOR GETTING SO ANGRY, BUT i WAS REALLY ANNOYED. yOU WROTE sNAPE DIGGING HIS OWN GRAVE, AND NOTHING COMING OUT IOF IT. bUT HERE'S WHAT MADE IT WORSE: iN THIS INSTANCE, IN THE SITUATION YOU CREATED, IF hARRY CHOOSES TO ACT, hARRY WOULD HAVE THE LAW ON HIS SIDE, THE PRESS ON HIS SIDE, THE PUBLIC ON HIS SIDE, HIS FAME ON HIS SIDE, FOR ONCE WORKING FOR HIM INSTEAD OF AGAINST HIM, HE'D HAVE THE SUPPORT OF MOST OF THE STUDENTS AND STAFF, HE'D HAVE THE MORAL HIGH GROUNDS, AND HE'D HAVE THE POWER TO STOP ANYONE FROM INTERFERING. wHICH IS WHY IT ** ME OFF TO READ THA TmCgONNAGAL SAID SHE DIDN'T THINK THERE WAS MUCH SHE COULD DO AS sNAPE IS A GOOD AND RESPECTABLE TEACHER. hE IS NEITER - HE IS A LOUSY TEACHER AND IS LOATHED BY MOST, AS FAR AS WE SEE FROM CANON - AND THE GRTEATER PART OF FANFICTION, INCLUDING YOUR OWN FIC - SO THE ONLY ONE WHO WOULD STAND FOR HIM IS dUMBLEDORE, AND HE IS EASILY NEUTRALIZED IN THAT CASE. aND mINERVA SHOULD BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT, EVEN IF hARRY DOESN'T. sO EVEN IF hARRY DOESN'T THREATEN dUMBLEDORE, SHE CAN TELL dUMBLEDORE haRRY COULD THREATEN HIM SO IF HE DOESN'T ACT NOW TO STAVE sNAPE OFF AND REALLY, BUT i DO MEAN really! DISCIPLINE HIM FROM ONCE AND HOLD HIM IN CHECK HENCEFORTH. sO THE THE THREAT TO THREAT dUMBLEDORE WITH AIRING HIS DIRTY LAUNDRY IN THE LIGTH WOULD BE ENOUGH TO GET HIM MOVING, NOT ONLY SO HE WOULD STAVE OFF ANYTHING THAT MIGHT COME OFF FROM hARRY ACTUALLY CARRYING SUCH A THREAT, BUT ALSO FROM HIM MAKING SUCH A THREAT. mAKING SUCH A THREAT WOULD MEAN hARRY GETTING AWAY FROM HIM, OVER A WIDE BREACH. iT WOULD MEAN LOSING sNAPE ALTOGETHER, HAVING HIM SACKED AND POSSIBLY IMPRISONED, INSTEAD OF MERELY INFORMALLY SLAPPED ACROSS THE HAND. iT WOULD MEAN hARRY REALIZING HE HAD A LOT OF POWER AND THAT HE COULD USE IT TO GET HIS OWN WAY, SOMETHING dUMBLEDORE PROFESSED TO HAVE GONE TO EXTREMITIES TO PREVENT. (I.E. PUTTING HIM WITH THE dURSLEYS SO HE WOULND'T GET A BIG-HEAD.) sO EVEN THAT MERE SUGGESTION BY mCgONAGALL SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO FINALLY FORCE dUMBLEDORE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH HIS DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO HIS STUDENTS, EVEN IF hARRY REMAINS BLISSFULLY UNAWARE OF ANYTHING GOING BEHIND THE SCENES. nOW i DON'T KNOW IF mCgONAGALL WOULD WANT TO DO THAT TO dUMBLEDORE, WHO MUST BE A LONG TIME FRIEND AND COLLEGUE OF HERS, BUT HER ANSWER TO hARRY IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE! sO IT WAS THAT, IN FACT, mINERVA'S RESPONSE, THAT DROVE ME OVER THE EDGE. i MEAN, IT'S BAD ENOUGH THAT CANON hARRY pOTTER DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE, i AT LEAST EXPECT SOME LOGIC WHEN i READ FANFICTION! oTHERWISE i WOULDN'T HAVE BOTHERED WITH IT, FOR cHGRIST'S SAKE!

Sheilawisz 2008-02-25 ch 1,	abuseHey V! Guess what, I joined this thing... You remember me, right? Well, I do remember reading the first chapters of Broken Wands a long time ago, and now finally I'm going to read it all! The first chapter is very nice, congratulations...
me 2008-01-26 ch 8, anon.	abuseThis is a bad review... actually it is a flame. But this is just one guy's thoughts and with the number positive reviews you have received, most obviously do not agree with me. So far, I cannot say I like this story much. It is just something I would read to kill time, but not much else. Sixteen year old teenagers generally are the most logical people, but you portray them as morons that are extremely emotional and get mad at everything. Hermione has never been one to act in that manner. The fact that Hermione had Harry harry drink to numb his feelings is one of the stupidest things I have heard, considering you portray her as a genius. The characters also get angry about everything. In Order of the Phoenix, Harry acted that way, but he was under the affects of constant nightmares, constant ridicule (from the ministry, newspapers, and other students), and torturous punishments from a teacher. I can understand if Harry and Fleur acted agitated, as they both have had people they care about die. I might be able to see Ron getting angry in this last chapter because Ginny is upset. But everything else seems ill-conceived. I don't mind characters acting differently or "out of character" in fanfics (I actually prefer it). However, it must be done carefully to avoid merely creating your own characters that merely have the names of characters created elsewhere (in this case, the Harry Potter books). However I believe the creation of your own characters is what has occurred in your story. When reading this, I get the impression that you thought of a basic concept of your story with very few specific points planned, then just filled everything else on the fly. This may work for smaller stories, but this is a longer story and this does not work well. I find this story just seems to drag along with a bunch of teenagers getting angry at each other while saying, "woe is me." Well, that is my review.
PhelpstwinsandElftwins 2008-01-19 ch 38,	abuseoh, please start on the sequel soon!

major wallace 2007-12-23 ch 38,	abusemore
Lylev 2007-11-04 ch 20, anon.	abuseI don't mean to be overly technical but in chapter twenty you said that Hermione was turning sixteen on September 19. However her year of birth according to cannon is 1979. Meaning that she should be turning 17. This is futher suppoted by the fact that in order to attend Hogwarts you must be 11 years old as of August 31 in order to start that year. Again according to cannon.
