love this story and the one before it

I just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading this story!

I loved this story so much. It had the perfect moments... Just the perfect moments. It had so much information that just worked so well. I was even amazed that you had all that HBP information from online. I had never looked for it because I wanted to read the books without any warning. Not looking back and thinking about how much you didn't know after book five... This story amazed me. You had so many things from the last two in here, even if no one could have guessed about the horcruxes.

I wish that it didn't have to end here but it does. At least I can know that it ended with the perfect ending. The many Weasleys, the picnics, the happiness, the peace, the jobs, and everything... It just works out so well. I really wish it didn't have to end.

I'm just going to have to go look at your other works because I need to read more of your work and if this can't be continued, I'll have to look for something else!

Please continue writing FanFiction! I loved your two stories about this and I'm looking forward to reading more of them. :)

this was definetly one of the best fanfictions i have ever read. you did a wonderful job, and im am certain i will remember for a long time. :-D

I think the scene between Harry and Ginny was perfectly fine and totally within reason. They are teenagers, not flobberworms. Harry is nearly 17. It is 1997, no the dark ages and teenagers snog and get hot and heavy and many, many of them go the whole hog. I think it is unrealistic to have them just kissing and hands above neck at all times. You showed Ron and Hermione coming out of a broom cupboard in the last tstory. They weren't just kissing in there, otherwise their would have been no necessity to go to the broom cupboard.

Anyway, I'm just saying, I definitely think Harry could do with the distraction of many more hot and heavy snogging sessions.

Nice story, time for it to go in to my favorites.

I realise this story is finished, for probably a long time - but I would just like to tell you how much I loved it!! Especially when Harry was high about... two chapters ago...? Even though it's 1 in the morning here and people are sleeping, I couldn't contain my laughter. You are to blame if I am in trouble tomorrow :)

Keep up your amazing writing

P.S. I also wanted to say that I love how Harry isn't all powerful, and even though I nearly cried, that you let important people die, like Charlie. I'm very glad it wasn't Fred though!!

wow that was great.. had to read both one right after the other. keep on trucking out these awesome stories.

Wow. I just finished this one and I just have one question for you. How did you know all this stuff?! HBP had not come out yet, but you still knew a lot of important things that were in it. You're good:) Hahha anyways, I LOVED this one as well and Im soo glad you had Harry and Ginny have a lot of kids, I love the idea of them having a big family, not to mention all their adventures. Well, like I said I really enjoyed this, great job!!

Great story!

I wish that either this story or the Seventh Horcrux being canon. It is much more satisfying. Much actions, yet at the same time much romance and thoughts. You did an excellent job with this story :D

Yeah, I agree with you that Harry deserves a family. I never really understand why some people want him to have only two kids and considered 3 kids as excessive. I never enjoy the ending with Harry and Ginny having only 2 kids or less. I always felt that to be OC for both Harry and Ginny.

I have to admit that I am a bit surprised that Ginny was not heavily involved with training together with Harry, as it would help Ginny defend herself even better if Harry thought about it. Then again it is me that always enjoying seeing them working together as a team.

I hope to see more of your wonderful story! We could always use more excellent H/G stories :D

I know - this fic has been out a while, what am I doing reading it now? LOL Actually, I think I am still in denial over the series ending. I have my fingers crossed for a 'next generation' series ten years from now, :)

I was amazed at how many things you got right BEFORE HBP. Dumbledore dying, Snape being good, the Snape/Lily thing, Harry having a conversation while near death and being granted a choice to live or die, Luna being used by Death Eaters to lure Harry into a trap, etc.

Good story!

I just finish you two stories and they were great.

steve p.

I laughed I cried,... wonderful story Melinda.

For years I've believed that JKR should have killed Harry, until I read this. The whole bit about wanting to live made believe...

Thank you...

I just love your epilogue. It's exactly as i see harry and ginny living post war time. Lots of kids, dangerous living, adventurous. i loved the yellow brick road thing! i smile the whole time i read it. This story will always be a classic for me. Your the author that got me hooked on fan fiction, all those years ago! lol. Great story!

Good story. My only complaint is that the guilt-trips and associated angst got a bit repetitive.
