Reviews for Hermione Granger is Stupid |
---|
![]() ![]() ![]() A fun story. Interesting way to do the wrap up. Thank you for writing, Ron |
![]() ![]() ![]() Why is it so difficult for people to understand that if someone is trying to kill you, it is perfectly acceptable to use lethal force to protect yourself? It is not morally superior to refuse to use lethal force against someone who is trying to kill you, it is stupid. |
![]() ![]() FINALLY! You see, Hermione, Lavender was right about Harry being right for you, and Ron being the wrong type of person for you. If I was in your position, I wouldn't even give Ron the time of day. |
![]() ![]() I think Lavender Brown is correct that Hermione Granger is secretly in love with Harry Potter. Okay, maybe she does giggle slightly too much and gossip a lot, but I think that's just a front she puts up to stay under Dumbledore's radar, and it seems to work. |
![]() ![]() RON WEASLEY IS BLOODY USELESS! He's CONTINUALLY letting his emotions, insecurities, weaknesses and jealousy get the better of him! Good grief, what the devil's wrong with him? Why doesn't he master his insecurities, rather than letting them master him? |
![]() ![]() PERSONALLY, I think Hermione Jean Granger could do much better than Ron Weasley. The guy is a complete and insensitive utter JERK who thinks only of himself, and certainly not others. Heck, he's not even intelligent! And he is DEFINITELY not in Hermione's class. Padma Patil would be a better choice for her, and could provide the intellectual stimulation Hermione requires. |
![]() ![]() ![]() You just can’t help but keep coming back to some stories. Loved it |
![]() ![]() ![]() the warning should be about the boring feminist rant |
![]() ![]() ![]() love this story. |
![]() ![]() ![]() How Hermione handles things with her parents before leaving on the horcrux hunt is another great part of this story. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve always loved the ending scene of this chapter where H and Hr dance to Jethro, Annie, and Sam’s song. It’s probably at least half the reason why this story is on my Favorites list. |
![]() ![]() ![]() McGonagall's gotta get off her high horse...so Hermione popped Cormac one...he had it comin' and if I was in McG's shoes I'd've given him a busted jaw to go with his busted nose |
![]() ![]() ![]() Harry should've decked Ron the minute he started in on Hermione |
![]() ![]() I know people are flawed but this fic just seemed like Hermione bashing for a fair part of it trying to make her seem at least magically weaker and less intelligent than she actually is. It also made her seem incredibly selfish and self absorbed to the point where she was borderline narcissistic. It made Hermione seem much more insensitive than she is which consequently made her a lot harder to like as a character. Worse still, when it came to being apart of the action, the times for her to do something effective maybe even great she seems completely useless which feels completely OOC. There was a lot of Hermione, Ron and Ginny bashing but there wasn't much insight into Harry's character flaws. In the books and in the films Harry frequently seems to take Hermione's presence in his life for granted or find her nagging annoying even if she's doing it out of concern for his general well being. Harry has ignored and avoided Hermione, a sign of passive aggressive behaviour because he is unable to maturely articulate his feelings about things to her and Hermione is not open to recieving criticism which makes it difficult for her to listen see things from a different perspective. I don't think Hermione is shallow but I do think she can have too much pride and a little bit too much arrogance in the self assured belief that she is always right. However, I also saw Hermione as a deeply empathetic and caring individual, a smart individual who was good at problem solving, talented with good instincts thus able to get herself, Harry and Ron out of most trouble. I don't think Harry and Ron appreciate Hermione as much as they should have and their friendship has always seemed more than a little bit one sided with Hermione overworking herself and trying too hard to try and prove herself worthy of their friendship. It's quite sad really. In some ways it's why I think there's more potential for Hermione to find a suitable match in Draco or Cedric if he was still alive because at least Draco Malfoy can recognise Hermione's brilliance even if he's envious of it and resents her for being a Muggleborn with superior intellect and magical abilities. And Cedric and Hermione are both avid intellectual types, hard workers who value integrity and commitment. They would have had more in common. It would be interesting to see more Fics where Harry has to make things right with Hermione because Harry is not a saint. I'm not sure I approve of Luna's characterisation either. I could see her getting angry but I don't believe in her approach to conflict resolution. I think Luna would try and instil the same insight into Harry and his grief, or Voldemort's choices just as she would with Hermione's poor life decisions through peaceful conversation and intelligent debates, metaphors, allegories and subtle comparisons. I never imagined Luna doing something deliberately cruel to another person. Defending herself and her friends sure, but I never thought her words could be so loud or quite as violent. Honestly, I see Luna and Hermione coming to a mutual understanding and respect for each other through in depth harmonious discussions, or calm debates which would turn into a mutual fondness, and eventually affection which would create a strong friendship between the two. Overall I don't think this fanfic was that bad. Some of it was quite interesting but my interest and attention dwindled when a) Harry was involved with too many potential love interests which were a threat to the main HHr storyline, B) the boundaries between friendships and lovers became severely blurred the story felt confusing and c) the way the characters were described was so different to the profiles I had built up of them in my head that by the end I wasn't really sure which characters I was rooting for or willing to support however, rather than being able to remain unbiased, the more I read the more deeply uncomfortable I became so I had to stop reading. I couldn't finish this story all the way through. I had to skip to the end just to double check this was still a certified HHr fic, they were monogamous, and they got their own happily ever after. I think at the end of the day it's just accepting that people will always have different interpretations to others over the things that they experience either in real life, or through observation, and as such they will develop a different moral code of what they think is wrong and right which will be different for individuals in different situations. I can't really judge this author's decisions but I found them difficult to digest and accept as plausible. It wasn't really my cup of tea |
![]() ![]() what a lovely story. been a while since it finished updating, a long while even, but it still holds up to this day! really enjoyed reading it the past few days, and will likely come back. thanks :) |
