Reviews For The Dark and Winding Path
Reviewer: Scorcher Signed Date: 2007.06.14 - 05:21AM Title: DISCOVERIES I'm sorry.. I really tried to like this but the moment Ginny becomes omnipotent and they start to talk to each other mentally is usually the place everything start to go downhill. I'm a huge Harry/Ginny fan but when Ginny surpasses everyone else in maturity, capablity, cleverness and beaty it is pretty much my limit. It's your way of writing things and I respect that.. you like to write an extremely strong Ginny.. it's just not for me.

Cheers Reviewer: Ajay Anonymous Date: 2005.12.07 - 12:12AM Title: DISCOVERIES good chapter but there is a mistake Luna's house is Raven Claw not Hufflepuff Reviewer: Rettet Signed Date: 2005.12.06 - 02:42AM Title: DISCOVERIES Odd, somehow my review ended up in chapter 1...
You never cease to amaze me. I've read every single SSPotter story you've written, and of course absolutely loved them. This story is shaping to be just as good.
I love stories about a mental bond between Harry and Ginny, and I'm very happy you decided to put one in here. ^_^ Now hurry and update so I can read the next chapter, I'm getting anxious!
Keep up the good work, I love reading your stories.

Sorry it took me a while to get to the chapter. :-( Cute way for Ginny to escape McGonagall (even if temporarily). I'm reminded of kokopelli's "The Letters of Summer" (except in that story, Ginny's animagus form was that of a russet-colored tabby cat). Given that Ginny has certain personality traits that might fairly be characterized as "feline," I'd chalk this up to great minds thinking alike. :-) Nice "cover story" for the knickers -- though I was surprised that it was Ginny's wand that Hermione nicked: I expected it to have been Ginny's bra. Though I suppose either could have been roughly as incriminating as the other (at first, anyway). :-} And all concerned are lucky that McGonagall didn't exercise creative use of a Summoning charm. :-} Looks as if Ginny's "standing by her man," all right.... :-} Given Ron's perception and evident intent, that alone might have qualified for her saving Harry's life, eh? I gather I wasn't the only one surprised by Ginny's attire ("wearing nothing but a smile"). :-} "cat got your tongue," indeed. :-) I find the phrasing "Even stark naked ... she was absolutely gorgeous" a little odd: I'd expect her to be "beautiful" when "stark naked" (as Harry does). :-) I'm a tad surprised that Hermione is so thick-headed about the tactical necessity of withholding information from the enemy, but she does have a pretty strong tendency to follow rules & believe authority figures, I suppose. Interesting set of properties those Levitation Leeks have. Hmmm... had there not been a hapless student handy, what would Prof. Sprout have done...? -- no, don't even *think* of answering that...! :-) Reaction to Harry's earring seems about right. :-} Ah, yes -- the Bond. Heh...! :-) Nice bit of reassurance Ginny provided, there. Jumping Beans? Ron, Ron.... Tsk.... It does begin to seem that Harry & Ginny will definitely make a team that will take advantage of the Gestalt Effect. :-) [Thinking of how their strengths complement one another....] Leave it to a librarian to make a visual (and tactile) pun. :-} The bit where Ginny tells Harry what Tom did to her -- I was expecting her to tell him that she was pregnant. (I haven't looked at the other reviews of the chapter yet; I'll be surprised if I'm the first one to admit this, though, since there are at least 12 reviews already.) Ah, yes: looks as if the bond the unites Harry & Ginny might well be worth exploring -- speaking of tactical advantages. Which reminds me: I wonder about the interaction between the bond and Ginny's animagus form... hmmmm.... :-} Reviewer: Sibling Ctreature Anonymous Date: 2005.12.05 - 02:49PM Title: DISCOVERIES as a matter of interest... What cover story did Hermione give McGonagall for where she 'found' Ginny and where Ginny had been all night? Reviewer: YOYO Anonymous Date: 2005.12.05 - 01:49PM Title: DISCOVERIES MORE, MAN THAT WAS THE BEST, WRITE MORE MORE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reviewer: snuffles007 Signed Date: 2005.12.05 - 01:01AM Title: DISCOVERIES Great story!! I stayed up until 1am just so I could finish it. Please keep those updates coming! Reviewer: PhoenixAeternum Anonymous Date: 2005.12.04 - 12:53AM Title: DISCOVERIES Excellent as always, my dear!
Nice to see some mental communication happening, it always does bring a smile to my face. The bit with the Levitation Leets and their effects was great; I can just imagine Harry wishing he had his own personal crop of them.
Thank you for this chapter,
PhoenixAeternum Reviewer: Sibling Creature Anonymous Date: 2005.12.03 - 03:08PM Title: DISCOVERIES Who needs cordless extendables when you can hear each others thoughts... :-) I love the way these chpters play out, especially the ending of this one. Reviewer: A Fan Anonymous Date: 2005.12.03 - 01:38PM Title: DISCOVERIES Great Posts! I admit, the Voldemort physically raping Ginny thing wasn't something I expected, but is interesting to consider. I always considered what he did to her to be emotional rape but, the thought of the other is very nauseating. Glad Harry was able to get past it and remember that he loves her. And Dumbledore was right, it didn't really happen in the ways that mattered.
Can't wait for the next chapter!!! Reviewer: Norman Barnes Anonymous Date: 2005.12.03 - 10:29AM Title: DISCOVERIES I should add to my previous review that the whole notion of Ginny being raped by Voldemort is pretty hard to take and given a choice I'd rather have seen that part omitted from the story. Bad enough she had to be possessed as an 11 year old without that too. Call me squeamish. Or maybe because I'm a dad with daughters. In any case the story overall is fine and the writing is very good. Reviewer: melindaleo Signed Date: 2005.12.03 - 07:29AM Title: DISCOVERIES You continue to make this story shine. While the whole idea of Tom actually raping Ginny makes me squeamish, you lightened it up really nicely at the beginning of this chapter. I thought for sure it was Ron pulling back Harry's curtains and would find him there. Ginny turning into the cat and watching the whole thing was a hoot.
I was really glad you didn't make McGonagall come off as looking stupid, either. Reviewer: Norman Barnes Anonymous Date: 2005.12.03 - 02:29AM Title: DISCOVERIES This story has taken all sorts of twists and is quite breathtaking at times. Very well written and extremely enjoyable. I especially like your portrayal of all the characters, particularly Harry and Ginny. A lot of imagination and effort has gone into this. Well done - although I have to say, McGonagall listening to bagpipe music for pleasure might be pushing it a bit! Reviewer: Antosha Signed Date: 2005.12.03 - 02:08AM Title: DISCOVERIES Very nice, tying the threads together... And the bond strengthens.... :-) Reviewer: Samantha Anonymous Date: 2005.12.03 - 12:28AM Title: DISCOVERIES this chapter was utterly hilarious. very well written too, keep up the good work! | |||||||
