Reviews For A Time and Place to Learn
I have been reading your story and it’s prequel A Time and a Place to Grow but this is the first time I have sent you a review. I want to tell you that you are a wonderful writer and I have looked forward to reading all your stories either at this site and other sites. This new chapter of A Time and a Place to Learn --- WOW!!! Intense is to mild a word for this chapter. In my mind Harry has 3(at least) things he needs to apologize to Snape for. First, as you wrote by Harry taking the blame for Worty, he is showing him a bad example that it is ok not to take responsibility for your mistakes. This goes further because Snape is Worty’s Head of House, he is Worty’s Hogwort “parent” for the next 6 years. With Worty’s guilty feelings about this incident, he will probably not seek Snape out for advice or help as he should have and who knows how this will affect his entire school career. Next, Harry is still lying to Snape after all they have been through over the summer and this school year so far to develop a good relationship. Snape is not the enemy and each time Harry lies to him they have to spend time again and again repairing that relationship instead of making it stronger to fight Voldemot. Also by lying, Harry is showing his friends that he doesn’t completely trust Snape either so they are still going to have doubts about him especially Ron. Lastly, Harry has always yearned for a Home, a Family and a Father. By Snape adopting him, Harry now has all of those things and he should be loyal to the man who has made whose yearnings possible. At the end of your story A Time and a Place to Grow just before Harry gets on the train to go back to Hogworts, Snape tells him to remember 2 things “you are my Son now and I love you”. Harry needs to not only apologize to Snape, he needs to apologize to his Father. I’m going to patiently wait (or not) for your next chapter to see what happens. Pearl Author's Response: That's a lot for poor Harry to have to keep up with - hopefully I can remember them all when I write the next chapter. I'm glad you reviewed - writers always like to know that people apprecaite out stuff or at least that they're reading. I promise to write again as soon as I can. Thanks!
Author's Response: I'm glad you saw it, too. I was afraid the argument between Snape and Harry was too confusing and convoluted, but you obviously got all the points I wanted to make. I will be writing more on this soon, hoepfully.
I hope Harry doesn't avoid his father forever - I'd hate to see their new relationship die because of it. And... I know Draco is in this story and really I have no problem with it but I'm going to ask anyway. Is this going to turn into a story surrounding Harry and Severus and Draco? Update soon. Yours, Lady Jewels Snape.
