Reviews For New Year, New Hope
Reviewer: TomBombadil Signed Date: 2017.08.03 - 06:39AM Title: Part Five Thank you for this chapter ... for the in-depth discussion ... and for showing us the fire that has been lurking under the surface since the first installment of this story arc and about which you told us at the beginning of this installment. It is the wee hours of the morning and I can't sleep. Ugh! But when I closed my eyes while thinking of Harry's frame of mind in your story, I saw an image of Harry living in a dark hovel with a demonic dragon perch over the roof. The front of the home is open and a bright light shines within. Ginny. To have developed such a stark image of despair and such a striking contrast of hope and love tells me you have been capsulizing very powerful emotions in your writing. Good stuff! I looked up your stories because you have been mentioned as the primary beta for several stories I have found to be thoroughly enjoyable and was curious to see your own work. Finally, I apologize for the typos in my first review. I'm using my iPad while reading at night so I don't wake my beautiful wife of 40 years! As a result, the type is too small to read well. Still, I will try to do better! You have me hooked on this story and I look forward to reading more. I remain anxious about the "murderer or murder victim" attitude Harry is demonstrating. Under that frame of mind, the troops who freed the Jews from concentration camps, as well as those who stopped the terror and death marches in the Pacific in World War II would be murderers rather than liberating heros. I think JKR did a remarkable job illustrating that point throughout all seven books, and drove home this dichotomy when she had Harry offer Tom Riddle the chance to repent from his evil ways and find some remorse in what little was left in his soul at the time of the final battle! The final battle was between a murderer and a true hero, not between two people who must either commit murder or be murdered. She illustrated this so powerfully in their respective choices of spells, Avada Kedavra versus Expelliarmus! Oh well, I will not keep talking about this incessantly. I promise!

Good thing he ultimately comes to his senses. But it will probably not be the last time that he hurts her ...

It was just beautiful...very sensual while still being innocent enough. Perfect:) Reviewer: ginnyweasley777 Signed Date: 2009.06.10 - 10:29AM Title: Part Five aww, a really sweet chapter Reviewer: jeannet Anonymous Date: 2007.10.02 - 08:21AM Title: Part Five No Review | |||||||
