I had to pop on to type this review and I find there's another chapter there! (Normally I only look for new chapters on a Friday so I can print them out for the weekend).
I couldn't detect any artifice in Ginny whatsoever when she talked to Harry about Dean, no attempt at being disingenuous, so they're seriously 'just friends' at this point in your story. Good show. Wondering if they're going to come together slowly or with a big event/crisis/climax/cusp.
Seems like Harry has got tickets on himself, a bit, doesn't it? Giving Ginny one mirror while he keeps the other? I thought he was going to give her *both*, so she could give one to Dean. Instead he gives her one so she can have an express route to talk to ... him! Only half-points for that one, Harry.
Thanks for the chapter! Brad Reviewer: arios Anonymous Date: 2005.05.17 - 05:27PM Title: Another Year Older Yeah, I am... cute story and now I'm addicted.

Fantastic chapter! Reviewer: pigwidgeon Signed Date: 2005.05.16 - 08:47PM Title: Another Year Older I love this story, it's so in character... I can see it happening in the books. One of the reasons I love it is that it's not rushed at all, that's why it's so believable. Best story I've seen in a long time. Please update soon! Reviewer: Blue Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 08:24PM Title: Another Year Older What I like most in this fic is that Harry and Ginny are gradually falling in love. It's like, step-by-step. It's funny too! Nice ending by the way. Reviewer: Millia Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 07:41PM Title: Another Year Older I'm just a lurker here at SIYE and I've never reviewed a story, but I felt yours was an exception for a few main reasons:
1. Your presentation of how Harry deals with grief is so much better and canon than just about every fic I've read--none of that horrid angst about killing himself, starving himself, etc. Just slightly withdrawn, and a few angst moments that slip out every once in a while.
2. Your building up to a far more realistic relationship between Ginny and Harry.
This is great; keep up the good work. The only thing negative I have to say is very very small--just keep an eye out for a few typos that are almost inconsequential, but still there.
Thanks so much for writing this :) Reviewer: emily Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 06:50PM Title: Another Year Older Loved it! Reviewer: sunflowerchild Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 03:30PM Title: Another Year Older Wow! I love the story. It's really well written and very interesting. I love the way you have portrayed Ron and Ginny's relationship. I hope you update soon.
~cheers! Reviewer: destin4fl Signed Date: 2005.05.16 - 12:27PM Title: Another Year Older excellent! man that was worth the wait! Reviewer: David Wolfskill Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 11:36AM Title: Another Year Older Hmmm... very interesting. Didn't know Harry got on well with cats, after his experience with Mrs. Figgs. And I gather that Ginny would be a tad more carefulk than Harry was about what is exposed to view from the companion mirror at night.... :-) [I did note one or two typos, but I don't know that there was all that much detraction from the story as a result of them.] Reviewer: Tron Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 09:27AM Title: Another Year Older That was so funny! Thank you!
I really liked the part about the bet. I can just picture Ginny doing something like that.
I'm wondering how long it will take Harry to realize he really cares for Ginny. I also wonder why he is so set against telling her about the prophecy. Is he trying to protect her because he likes the fact she thinks of him as just Harry?
Please update soon. Reviewer: Aenigmatic Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 09:22AM Title: Another Year Older There's really a LOT I wish to say about the fantastic pacing and characterisation found in this story, and what I enjoyed most of all was the irrepresible and hilarious Ginny/Ron relationship that I wished J.K Rowling wrote into her books. You've managed to balance what might become a cliched plot and boring summer written in the same boring manner with the humour and the slow unraveling of the prophecy - well, we do know that Harry will crack somewhat. At least, the question of when and how Harry cracks with the prophecy on his shoulders is one all writers attempt to cover before Rowling reveals her own way, but you've done it in a darn fine way.
And thank goodness this is eventually H/G! The introduction of Dean means we're only warming up to more angst to come at least?
I can't wait for the next update, and counting the chapters until we get H/G together. Reviewer: Amanda Anonymous Date: 2005.05.16 - 05:34AM Title: Another Year Older Lol I'm so tired that I was just laughing like crazy at the end. I love the relationship that Ginny and Harry have, I loved having a close guy friend and I'm sad that we don't talk anymore. Did you ever say about how long it would take before they get together or do you not even really know yet? Just curious. Hope that it won't be another 2 weeks for the next chap, but hey, life gets in the way so what are ya gonna do? Ok I better get to bed cz I have my History final 2morrow. Love and Lucky Charms. | |||||||
