Reviews For Reading the Signs
Author's Response: Oh trust me, I totally get lateness. No worries there :) Glad you liked it!
Author's Response: Heh, well, it was a relatively quick update -- Chapter 22 is up now -- so hopefully you didn't go too nuts, lol. Many thanks for your kind review!
I reread your story a little over Christmas and it was a great read again. I think it's interesting the way that you've introduced Severus's abusive past and managed to tie it in throughout the whole story as motivations behind his actions and thoughts. Many stories introduce this aspect of Severus's life to help bond him and Harry and then it's kind of forgotten. You should be congratulated on the way that you've really made that part of Severus realistic, and influence his feelings towards Harry nicely. Thanks for the great story, looking forward to the next chapter! Author's Response: I think Severus' past is a very important commonality between him and Harry, and I think it's important to keep it somewhat in the foreground.
As for the drawing, yes, Snape was a bit stunned, but I think he handles it with aplomb, as you'll see in the next chapter!
I think the visit to the burn ward might have been a bit harsh, but definitely effective. I work in the ICU of our hospital and we sometimes get teenagers who have alcohol poisoning who are on ventilators until they sober up. You don't know how many times I've wanted to bring my kids in to see just what happens when you drink too much. I think that would be a pretty effective anti-alcohol campaign. Anyway, glad to see you're updating again. Thanks so much for the chapter. I really enjoyed it. Take care.... Author's Response: You're very welcome, and thank *you* for the review. Yeah, Harry is bound to be a bit confused emotionally. He's been through a lot, and he's still very young. Thankfully he has Snape there to help him :)
Author's Response: Thanks so much for your kind words. Yeah, it was a bit of a mean cliffhanger, but hopefully I`m forgiven, because the next chapter is up already!
Author's Response: Thanks, I try ;)
This update was very soothing and it was great for Harry to have insight into his life, for Ron and Hermoine to understand Snape and Harry's relationship a little better, and for Snape to see how much he means to Harry. I'm really excited to see how different Snape acts towards Harry in the next chapter, as well as seeing the whole not speaking thing addressed...as you said, next chapter. I'll hold you to it! Have a good weekend, and again, good luck writing!! Author's Response: Yes, a few things came together in this chapter. Now for the reactions!! Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Thanks! The next chapter is up now :) |
