fantastic story. i've throughly enjoyed reaing it up until now. it's a shame you never finished it.

Oh, I've practically put life on hold while I devoured all 23 chapters of TPP! I'm aware it's been some time since you updated, but is there at all any chance that you might want to give your readers a conclusion? The characters are all so well written, with Hermione, Harry, Draco, and Ron so well fleshed-out. One of the best I've read - and trust me, I've read my fair share.



Hoping you'll feel the itch to write, Kean.

Dear Adelaide:

Two comments. First, I would like to say that this story - at least, what I've read of it so far - is a fine piece of work in the best tradition of the Harry Potter subcategory's only interesting romance, and I congratulate you. Second, I think this chapter's title us supposed to be "Which proceeds *from* the First".

Sincerely,
Qoheleth

Six months is one thing, two years is another...

*flames gleefully*

Please update. =)
(still loving your fic)

ok

Ack. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no... well, I cannot repeat the word enough. No! I cannot believe this. After all the effort you put into this story, all the literacy, all the time, all the... wonderful crap that you put into this story. And then *poof* you're gone. You've been gone! You just leave, leave the story, leave your reviewers, leave your readers!

I actually thought that you might finish this out. Nay, rather, I hoped. After all, I'm reading this two years after your abandonement of this glorious, wonderful story. Still, I hoped, hoped, hoped, hoped. I got my sister to read this story, as well, before I knew that it was incomplete. And now here I am, enraged because you simply couldn't wrap it up before leaving it out to dry.

I am forever a D/Hr shipper, and yet I continued to read after I read all of the R/Hr. Normally, I would never, never, never do this. I HATE Ron, hate him with a passion for his endless stupidity. But your writing was so amazing, and you provided reasons, and I was actually starting to like the two of them together... although never as much as Draco and Hermione. I love how you made it so complicated, I love how you made Draco so in character, I love how you made it so that everything had/has a reason, although you may not have explained it when it occurred. I love how you made Percy not such a prat, I love how you made Lupin amazing, old, and Dumbledore-like.

But you abandoned the story, the first decent fanfic I have read in months!! And I say this even though R/Hr was a main pairing!! Never, never, never, never, NEVER will I understand why you simply left it after this, left it for two years, and will probably never update it again.

But enough yelling at you, although you deserve it and will probably never read this review.

This story touched me, it made me think, it made me read, and it made me love Lawrence (although I hate the name with a complete passion xPP). I love(d) this story enough to write this effing long a review. So, while I thank you for writing this, I so, so, so, so, so wish you could have concluded it. You spent two long years on it, and now I've spent two long days reading it, and I can't believe that you left me with that.

Absolutely amazing story!
one of the best that i've read in a long while..

just wanted to say that when i was reading the middle, about Limbo and everything, and when i went to go look at the date you last posted, i was so shocked!
i had thought that you might've (forgive me) taken the idea from the last book...
Amazing my dear!
AMAZING!

Where to start...

Your story is one of the two greatest ones I have read this year (There is this amazing fic called "Faultlines" I bet you'll like it too) Oh... wait... almost forgot Deathly Hallows lol!... Correction: one of the three greatest stories I've read this year :-)

It just took me like 3 years to find it! Can't believe this has been published all this time and never found out about it... but omg I'm so glad I did! What can I say... your talent made several changes in my life and its surroundings: lack of sleep, lack of doing my job (well, this was willingly surrendered, glad my boss didn't find out!), lack of social life, lack of bathroom breaks (I just couldn't stop reading so I just held it till I sweated it!) but it was all worth it! Let me also say that you really improved my English vocabulary (Spanish is my birth language) I had your story in one window and on the other one lol! I didn't care it took me more time to read it, I wanted to know every word meaning, even the french and latin phrases I was just soaked with your writing and I loved it! Oh yes! I also learned new ways of swearing, so thank you for that! hehe

But I just have one thing to claim you... why the hell you made me like bastard-aco?!! Well not exactly "like" but sympathise with that son of a bi* (nothing personal Narcissa) No, no no and no! I never ever ever have read a story with a Hermione/Draco pairing (nor I ever will) Believe me if I hadn't seen a "RW" in the description, probably I would not have read it and I would have regreted it for the rest of my life. So if the cost is to feel something for that bastard... well, its well worth it! The way you portrayed them and told their stories was so perfect, detailed, and justified; you made me feel all along with them, their anger, joy, impotence, disappointment, love... just an authentic and real writer can make her readers feel and breathe this bunch of emotions with one story, and that's what you've done...

I really can't imagine how this story is going to end with all its perfect twists and turns, and although I love the idea that a certain cute, freckled person which I love ends up with Hermione, me as you wants the best for her, she's been through a lot, she deserves a rest and to be happy with whomever she choses and really makes her happy (just don't pair her with Snape or Lupin or someone like those please! hehe). I trust you and know that you will come up with a perfect conclusion for her.
But I'm still going to try and persuade you...can't blame me for trying!... let me give it a shot...m... go deep inside your heart and think: The first person that comes into your mind when you imagine who Hermione will see if she looks at the Mirror of Erised... there said it! wink wink hehe

Anyway, I noticed you have disappeared and haven't updated for more than a year, so I will start an exhaustive search for your best friend, worst enemy and the person you love so I can bring you back to life and finish writing this!

Please *kneels down and begs*

Oh dear Adelaide, i'm afraid, very, very afraid. I recently noticed on your profile that you will indeed be updating TPP (YAY)... i hope it is soon *crosses fingers and toes.

BUT back to why i'm afraid... i fear that you not updating in so long means that those small sentiments that you had for Draco when you were first writing TPP, will be gone.

Now i know they were there! I am rereading this fic and am positive you were hardbouring some small liking to dear, insanely in love, Draco.

So don't be lax Adelaide. Don't be lax in forgetting that Hermione must ultimatly end up 1) a strong woman with NO man, ah yes the spinster alternative... or
2) with her darling Draco.

Ok i'll admit i'm trying to bend your thinking to a pro-Draco mentality, but i know you just want to cross over. I can feel you wanting to break free from the constricts of Ron.

I mean really there arn't pretty things to describe ginger hair with, but think of all the lovely things you can use to describe blonde hair (e.g. the moon, lightening, unicorns, my cousins tacky dye job).

Wow did i degress... I sure hope to see an update sometime soon! PRETTY PLEASE. And make Draco lovely!As much for my husband (no longer finace!) and babies sake... i don't think they could cope with a crying me if Draco does turn out EVIL!

Hope all is well, this is a long review indeed...

Hey, I just stated reading your story..sp far, I really, really like it!!..I do hope your not going to stop writing this..this is one of the greatest fics I've read and believe me when I've said I've already read so much..Just hoping you'll continue this..you're an awesome author you know and you deserve more reviews! :-D

So is your pen-name an ode to E. Adeline Curtis?? Good story as well, amazingly intricate and well thought out

'Cause I could totally just plop a comment in your LJ or to the Yahoo! Group, but whatever.

DUDE HI.

So I've decided that to honor TPP's year-long hiatus (with the exception of the snippet I was honored enough to receive for my birthday last year--remember that?! Wow, does it feel like forever ago or what! XD) I'm gonna start rereading this marvelous tale. But not tonight. 'Cause I have to work tomorrow and I have a feeling once I start I won't be able to stop for at least a few hours, so this time of night is not the time to start.

But YES. Expect effusive re-reviewing shortly.

Hope all is well with you!

(Whining and curled into a ball in the corner of the room.)...Stop! You make my heart hurt...(stops whining and tilts head to think)...but my brain would explode if I stopped reading from unsatisfied curiosity...isn't that a catch 22...(realizes that she can't write a review curled in a corner of the room so gets up and goes on with day's activities.)

I Love the way you brought out all the cliched plots and had malfoy shoot them down. I LITERALLY had to swallow my squeals of laughter!
However, you have now ruined all horribly cliched stories for me and now I can't even possibly read them even in a state of extreme boredom! I am terribly upset...Kinda.In a way...Actually not at all...

oh please please please update! i tend to find stories when they're pretty far along but not yet completed, and then i get to the most recent chapter and find out that the author has decided to stop working on that particular story...don't do that! keep writing, because this is an excellent story and it'd be a crime not to finish it. it's amazing, you keep me guessing at every twist and turn you add to the plot, and the cliffhangers don't help! :) wonderful wonderful story, just please kick that "update twice a year" habit you seem to have!
