Reviews for A Scandal in Baker Street |

![]() ![]() ![]() OK, so it got a bit confusing trying to follow all of the details, especially as I have a tendency to skip lines when I read, but this was still an amazing story, even if you are a terrible person for getting us hooked on the storylines then cutting us off cold-turkey. |
![]() ![]() I absolutely LOVED the torchwood in this Also just as a note not criticism, Captain Jack Harkness is omnisexual: not just humans, aliens too |
![]() ![]() ![]() I feel bad for the Potters haha., this is good. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I really don’t want to come off as an asshole(which I am) but what in the fuck is this? You have to set a tone and follow the damn thing. Not set a tone and shit all over it with bullshit like the Amy and two other people which I’m assuming are from Dr Who. |
![]() ![]() ![]() ummm.. excited to reread skip to near ending chaps...realized I read this... then realize why I seem to always obliviate myself after reading this then again became interested to read this one after months/years later... hmmm.. |
![]() ![]() ![]() well, compartmentalization but removing info from mole still got the mole everything information from the server. |
![]() ![]() ![]() HA! This blog chapter with the comments were hilarious |
![]() ![]() ![]() Interesting idea and plot and chapter |
![]() ![]() I actually agree with you. There are plenty of examples of Harry being brilliant in his own right through out all of the books. Some examples of reading body language, bluffing and piecing together a full story are: The descriptions: Consider that everything described in the books is a third person view of Harry's own mind, (except for the few chapters he's not in) which would explain why the narration knew what a playstation was but each magical incident has to be described because Harry didn't know. If you accept that then every description of the characters is what Harry notices about them and usually the descriptions are well thought out and include quality of clothing, general activities, basic personality and behavior as well. Bluffing: my favorite example of this comes from the first book. While they are sneeking off to save the stone they run into Peeves before they even reach Fluffy and Harry pulls a fast one, pretending he's the Bloody Baron, and PEEVES believes it. Peicing things together, well most of the books have some sort of mystery involved. But my favorite, most Holmes like examle is also from book one where he puts together the dragon egg, hagrid, music and whatnot to realize that someone is going to steal the philosophers stone. If you read that section it's a jump of logic that screams detective potential. So while I do, like you, believe Sherlock would be a lot smarter, Harry would be far from a goldfish. |
![]() ![]() ![]() "Are you kidding me?" John yelped. "That was nonsensical" My thoughts after this chapter ALSO ummm what the fuck is THIS line? Mary wolf-whistled. "Who doesn't love a bit of yaoi" that's the grossest and my fetishizing thing I've read together i feel ill and vaguely nauseous and really angry if i were Sherlock i would punch Mary holyyyyy sshhhiiiittt that's so bad. omg. you, the writer,. Need To Understand her saying that Is Homophobic. It's so bad! what the fuck! fuck! im dying! i dont think i can continue this story which is a shame since i was originally inspired by it and impressed and awed but now... reading that felt like a hurtful slap. im gay and if some bitch told me "haha who doesn't love some yaoi" when i kissed someone i would die of embarrassment. it's terrible. It's mean. It's fetishing and homophobic and im not even going to waste my breath explaining how bad it is u can do your own research (Im still screaming. I can't believe my eyes that i just read that in the year of 20gayteen what the fuck. please. dont do that. hhhnnnnnggggggg) |
![]() ![]() ![]() gotta admit, im lost. rory and anne or whatever her name is? they dont follow the rules of the hp universe and dont click with the story. idk how they exist, how they know who rowling is, and im honestly expecting alternate universes with jk rowling and stuff appearing. it's all very confusing! I love everything else though - Harry and Sherlock and their crew works very wel! I believe this was written before season 3 which explains why mary is a giggly, exciteable girl instead of a formidable assassin |
![]() ![]() ![]() There's something deeply amusing and fascinating abt you talking abt peter capaldi (i think that's his name) being chosen as the doctor instead of a woman or someone else like ! i come from the future with good news for u bud |
![]() ![]() ![]() ohhh nooo ginny, sweetie, i love u but go apologize to ur dumb husband |
