Absolutely incredible. Thank you, OP.

I was sort of expecting this to be complete when I started, which turned into hoping it was complete at ch20, when I realized it probably wasn't. Now I can just hope it will be completed at some point in the future, because it's simply a great story. It's a different kind of fanfiction from most, no timetravel plot to change canon events or crossover shenanigans. A really well done emotional story, adult characters that feel like adults, an OC who ends up being the character I actually care the most about. The way Abby's father's situation parallels Harry's and how it helps Abby sympathize with Naomi, all really well done.

This story is amazing! Never really been one for OC but this is great and I hope u update!

Absolutely loved it

I spent my weekend reading this. It is amazing, very well done. Now I find myself with the legions of others awaiting another update. Please keep up the good work. PS I’m off to read your other fics now

"You know II've always been prepared to die for the ones I I love," he said with a slight rasp in his voice. "But now I have to live for them, and I never realized that could be just as hard."
Damn that hit me deep...

I've read slightly similar stories like this, but I haven't felt such raw emotions in any before this. Carry on, this had me riveted to my seat, I can't wait for future updates.

Just want you to know that this is a really great piece! It's hard to write in an OC from what I've read thus far, but you just made Abby here feel like she's a part of the story naturally! I don't really have anything to say other than a Thank you, Taliesin. Thank you for making this and sharing it! (. ᴗ .)

I've reread this story so many times, but I can't stop coming back to it! I just love it. It feels like a big warm sweater.

This isn’t my usual kind of tale to read on here, so it gives some weight to the my words when I say it’s phenomenal. You’ve done an incredible job building all these characters. Legitimately made me tear up as well. I hope to see it continue until it’s completed. Cheers to you!

Please I want more. This is so good

I have to say... Abby's entire family (except for her mother, of course)... are not good people. A father who, even after so many years, still did not understand how to ask for forgiveness. The brother who all these years was worth the offended princess. How pathetic it is. Somehow it so happened that her hardships became even closer to me than the tragedy of Potter. Let her live a happy life already, please.

Finally!

Such a good fic, this. Probably going to look at a few more H/OC after this.

Harry knew what he felt.

Well, good for him, huh.
