I really like thsi story. Harry can so often be dragged over to the emo side with some people's writting about how his life sucks. But you managed to keep a neat and awesome balace. m...just right. you're a very good author. this story is actually very believable to me and I could totally see the real harry charecter acting this way. I like the mirror of desires reffrence. and the whole "it used to annoy him but now he longed for it"-I am a dialogue nazi and you have great natural talent for stringing words together beautifully. A short story, but effective and full of plot despite its size. Bravo. I loved it and I can't wait to read more of your work.

I really liked this. I saw a spekking error ('holiday' was spelled 'holliday') and you didn't capitalize 'Christmas', but otherwise, this was extremely well done on the grammar front.
On another side, I liked it a lot as well. The only problem I have with it, I suppose, is that it was sort of inconclusive.
I did like it a lot, though, especially the beginning; that first sentence. That's great.
Anyway, keep writing!

It's pretty good, actually. Your writing is not rusty at all.
