GREAT JOB!

Oh I couldn't be more happy with this ending! I like how we sort of came full circle, back to where it all started with Rory stealing the baking soda! This was the perfect place for the relationship to start and I couldn‘t imagine it any other way.

It's nice to hear that Rory is happy with her choices. Her career is challenging and there is plenty to occupy her overactive imagination and desire to be organised and busy. I'm pleased you mentioned her Grandparents - I had a feeling that they would thrive with the notoriety of Rory owning a paper due to their investment in her, that they would be proud and pleased that she is near to them.

But mostly I'm just so relieved that at last everyone is happy and content, after all Dean and Rory have through it's just nice to see them together. And what's more exciting is that this is just the beginning and you can take this verse in so many directions! I will most definitely be back when you post a new fic. I just wonder does this mean that Dean's summer curse is now broken?

You’ve really taken us on journey! So much has happened and throughout you’ve captured the Star’s Hollow meandering tone, the quietness of real life. The characters have all changed and grown but in believable and real ways through life circumstances and not because it was demanded.

This has been a total pleasure to read so thank you for all your hard work and time - I’ve had a blast! Take care, Abbi. Until next time….

*cries* AH! *sniffles* the last chapter :(
I'm so excited to see this wrapped up though...as a whole! this story has been amazing...and well, you are too! Lol
it sucked cause I didn't have internet this weekend and I knew you were gonna post this around Friday (cause of somebody elses review..lol) and I was like AH! I wanna know what happens! Lol

yay! another mention of InDesign! :D lol

"guesstimating"
*giggles* I love that word! Lol

notes from the 70's?! holy crap!! and I thought I was bad about keeping stuff! lol

"both as close and as far apart as they'd ever been"
I love that line...it's kinda sad but still, I like it :)

LOL! she's rambling cause she's nervous..that's so cute! lol
LOL! she's talking about Dewey's bathroom visits?? LOL! wow...nice Rory, nice...lol

"that all endings were beginnings, too"
"every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end"-Matchbox 20
LOVE that line!! it makes sense though..lol

OMG! that was an absolutely perfect ending! I LOVE that it ended where it all sorta began... :)
fantastic job on this story.. absolutely amazing! :D
I can't wait for the 'sequel'...I heard something about a sequel ;)
great job! :D

Alright, I'm going to try to catch up! I want to know how it ends so, SO bad. Although with the ways this is going, I get the feeling that I'm really going to hope for a sequel... ;)

"Luke’s counter practically pulled information out of its visitors’ mouths and no matter how hard Luke tried to fight it, he was the ideal listener. Almost like a bartender, minus the beer, and add in the rough around the edges goodness that made Luke Luke." -- Which is EXACTLY why I love Luke so much! And you're right, he totally doesn't want to know, but people always tell him everything. Lol!

“So, I was wondering.”
“No,” Luke said quickly.
“I haven’t said anything.” Rory protested.
“You said enough,” Luke replied.

Haha! I've always loved the dynamic with Luke and the Gilmores. They're generally pretty vibrant people, and he's the kind of guy who likes to just go about his business. It makes for good TV comedy. :D

"You’re a teddy bear in sarcastic clothing." -- That's such a quotable line! I dunno how you came up with it, but it's awesome! I hope you don't mind if I repeat it to a friend of mine - he'd be thrilled! (Not really, but it's be funny!)

Aw, jeez. That last scene with Rory and Dean in the park and Dean getting to just kind of break down for once was heart wrenching! Because he's big and awesome and strong and smart and needs someone to take care of him once in a while. Thinking back, I really don't think Rory EVER helped him with anything like that at all. Sad, really. Anyway, it was a really, really great scene and I enjoyed it a ton (even through all the sniffling I was doing...).

Great chapter! And I WILL catch up! My life just keeps getting in the way. Dunno what's up with that, but... ;)

<> Such a perfect ending. I had my fingers crossed you would go this way, but couldn't be sure.

I love this, and this verse, you've created. As far as I'm concerned, this is exactly how this verse is how the story continues after the series end.

Absolutely amazing story! I loved every minute of it!

Your setting for the end of this epic was *inspired*! And you made something believable in this story that not many people could, and I applaud that!

And as I think about it, I guess I'm referring to two things. To Dean and Rory finding their way back together, and each gradually changing enough to make it work this time. (Not changing because the other demanded it - but through a believable course of events.)

But you also made me believe that Rory could be happy staying in Stars Hollow. Her personality is actually perfect for a job that requires micromanagement. And I can imagine a small-town local paper eventually even coming to national attention for the quality of its editorials or bi-weekly columns or occasional in-depth features pursued as only Rory Gilmore would tackle them.

May you always find time in your busy life for more writing!

OMG, you can't end it there... Every week I dreaded seeing that 'Complete' on the page, and now it is there shortly after a kiss... I am having chest pains because I got so excited when he got her into Doose's and she was getting nostalgic... then Bam! It's over... I want to see them walking down the streets and all the girls in town jealous that Rory was with Dean... I always thought he was the best boyfriend ever... *sigh*... Epilogue? Please! *sniff*... I want more *sniff, sniff*...

The perfect ending to a great story! I really reading this story. You did an excellent job on it.

Loved reading this from beginning to end!

*sigh* Loved the way you bought it all together, talk about full circle. That really is a good aisle =D

STANDING OVATION!

I'm so happy you got them together, I could just cry!

With joy, of course!

But a town wedding would have been really, really nice.

BRAVO, darling!

Love, Robin

I've been reading this for a few weeks now, but this is the first time I've reviewed the story. It is truly amazing! You have written one of the most well written fictions on this site. It is a truly beautiful piece and fits so well with the series that you have been writing. I truly hope that you will continue :)

I LOVED THIS SO MUCH! Seriously. That ending was beautiful. I'm fangirling over Dean all over the place right now.

You completely made my day! I absolutely adored this story. I can't wait for whenever you crank that next one out!

Thanks for writing!

This was a really, really fantastic ending to such a good story. I loved that they got back together in the same aisle where it all started, and I love him visiting her at the office, and I just really, really loved this story.
