Cripple Me by BlueRowley reviews
Severus Snape hates Harry Potter. Nothing will ever change that. Not even that trusting smile. Or that all too sweet and innocent look. Or the sudden shift in his relationship with the Potter whelp. Not even those bright, green eyes. No, nothing will ever change Severus's hatred for Harry Potter – no matter how fond of him he was becoming. An eventual Snape adopts Harry story.

Harry is in his first year and seeing a whole new world compared to what he knows, but not everything is magical for our Boy-Who-Lived and only one man can see that. How can Severus fix the damage done to the child, and why does he even want to? Mentor fic, Adoption fic, mentions of child abuse!

Acid Reigns by Mothboss reviews
Coming of age in the declining northern borough of Cokeworth wouldn't be easy for any eight-year-old boy. For reasons that defied logic, being named 'Harry Potter' only seemed to complicate matters.

And Then There Were Three by ScarlettWriter91 reviews
AU! This is the continuation of As Potter is to Snape. You'd definitely want to read that first, but basically, Snape has adopted Harry. He and Remus were both adopted by Albus and Minerva in 4th and 6th year. Snape was always a spy. This would start up right at the beginning of the summer before 4th year. I'm not sure if it will end at the end of summer or continue into the year.

Falling by artieandtaz2021
In an attempt to keep his safe from Voldemort, Harry is sent to live at Grimmauld Place for the Summer. Little do they know, the person Harry is most at danger from is himself; who will be there for Harry when he finally breaks? Rated M to be on the safe side, but probably more of a T-Rated story.
