I was an avid reader of yours about 3 years ago, and I've recently come back to read your stories again. Now that I'm more mature I can offer you a more objective review! :

I love how you allowed Zuko's unstable mindset(his insanity) show even when he was with Katara. I only remembered later than in Love Thy Enemy he really did finally go insane after her death. You're a fantastic writer in every aspect and I love your work. However, I found it odd that Aang never really did get to do much of his brilliant airbending. Though he's 12, he is the avatar and his airbending could have saved katara on many accounts. Just wondering but afterall, you're the author.

All the best to future works. You have been my alltime favourite author on fanfiction and you just reminded me why again.

You Gothic person
You made EVERYONE die!
Good story though

u shud probably change the type of story , dis is mor of tradegy/romance

Hello, I have been attempting to read your story and there are various flaws I would like to point out. I tried to read further but I had to stop.

You are not protraying their characters properly. Katara, though she is sometimes weak, would never forgive someone for cutting her brother's arm or killing Jet (even if they are not quite close anymore, they were still friends once).
She also would not forgive Zuko for imprisoning her friends, at least not that quickly. Even if he saves her brother, he was the one that hurt him in the first place and imprisoned him so he couldn't get it looked at.

I'm sorry to say that this is the worst verison of Katara that I've seen. She is anooyingly weak and forgives him way to quickly. Also, it seems that she forgets that Anng is imprisioned because of her and that she lost the only hope to save the world from Zuko. How does she forget all the suffering she's seen so quickly?

This seems like a story about a very abusive relationship--if that was what you were trying to show, you did it quite well. She forgives him everytime because he was sorry, even if he kept repeating his actions.

As well, Zuko is quite bipolar in this fic. He tends to contradict himself a lot, with being nice and then as though to seem bad he tries to appear evil and thus turns 'bad'.

Overall, the protrayls are weak and don't let us connect with them very well--they only give those into romance the sterotypical story.

I heard about this story from a picture on another website, and it was worth the read. It was a phenomenal story, but really depressing.

Wow. This has got to be one of the saddest endings. It makes me want to cry. *sob* I really love this story, although Zuko seems to be a bit out of character in places. I love this one and the sequel though. ^_^

I only just finished watching the Avatar series a few days ago. My ex made me watch it. And I have to say that I was quite unimpressed with the Kataang storyline. I read so much Kutara subtext. After the final episode I just had to satiate my appetite. Easy switch from the Harry Potter fandom to this one.

You guys have some INTENSE shipping wars though. Seriously. And as an author of slash over in the Potterverse, I'm used to people flaming me for the pairings I write. But this is intense. I went into a fandom to ask for a good beginner Zutara fic and left quickly again because people started getting snarky with each other over my request, arguing with each other. Seriously, I think this fandom could get into the biggest bitchkrieg just from someone saying hi.

Anyway, I got bored of waiting for someone to recommend something (I'm a little impatient like that) so went off to sort through the trash and treasure myself. Unfortunately I have rather high standards. It's quite frustrating, even with the fics with many gushing reviews etc, I stopped reading them after one or two chapters. The biggest problem? Spelling and punctuation errors. I'm a bit of a grammarnazi.

I have to admit that I was put off by your first chapter - it had frequent flaws and I felt that the characters (especially with the constant swearing) were a little OOC. But I was annoyed after looking for a good fic for so long, so I stuck with this one.

I don't regret that I did. It gradually improved, chapter by chapter, with your grammar errors diminishing and the characterisations growing stronger. By the final chapter, your writing was quite good. I liked the fact you wrote an unhappy ending. I'm a great fan of fluff and was hanging out for a fuzzy-wuzzy conclusion, but I liked the fact that you refused to compromise your story for your reader's whims. Too many authors back down at the last second and write an unfitting, happy ending to appease their reviewers. It's good that you didn't. Never change your story for others. If they want a different story, they can sit down and write it.

So, thankyou for a good introduction into both the Avatar fandom and the Kutara pairing.

I won't read your sequel as my time is limited, but of course I had to review. I was hoping to keep it short and succinct, but I've sort of ended up rambling...apologies.

Thanks for sharing the fic,

PS - I note you're an avid lover of music. I listened to Sia's Soon We'll Be Found during the last chapter and it fitted perfectly. I recommend it, especially to Sarah McLachlan fans :)

truthfully i had read love thy enemy first... i loved it but wanted the epilogue... then i got curious for THATP. i really trully loved it. i read the last chapter listening to "Fallen"... this honestly made me cry... i just want to say kudos to you... and i know its been a while since when this story came out... and a little more than a year after the series finale...im not even sure you'll get this... but i just wanted express what i thought and how this story really moved me...
*bows* Thank You

I like this story. I actualy read LTE before this so I knew something of what was going to happen.

you 56565656565656565656565656565656565656565656565656565656565656565656=- sorry my cat stepped on the keyboard, you realize that Katara is stronger smarter more level headed than you portray her. I just absolutely hate weak characters

You made me cry! Pretty much everything about the ending caught me by surprise. I think it's probabaly a good thing you didn't have a cheesy, perfect ending though; it's more real this way, and it fits with the theme of a fantasy world deteriorating. I had fun reading this, so thanks!

PFT. THAT WAS GREAT. /thumbs up

Ah! I can't help but say I really loved the interaction in this chapter. It would make sense for Katara to be mad at Zuko, and act like that.

A chase and capture story! I'm very curious how the plot will unfold. I absolutely loved reading ''Love Thy Enemy'.

I was us at 11:53 PM when I started this story,and now its 6:25 AM and Im done.(I took alot of breaks...)
But all I can say is this was an amazing story.
