Reviews For Harry's New Home
Love the blend of humour and tenderness in this story. "Lord Vol-au-Vent" - priceless. And when you show the differences between Harry's and Snape's POV, as in the DiagonAlley section of this chapter, it's charming, funny and poignant all at once. So many comically huge misunderstandings at each moment, and yet they both GET each other at a deep level and so it all works. Author's Response: Thank you! That "blend of humour and tenderness" is exactly what I'm aiming for, so it's wonderful to hear I've achieved it! :)
I loved the shopping trip to Diagon Alley. Snape thinking it would be a form of punishment almost, and Harry thinking it means his guardian is giving him a huge treat! I almost hope they never figure out that their expectations are almost always at cross purposes! Another great chapter! Author's Response: Ha ha ha! Yes, that's just the mindset I was imagining. Harry Hardy! ;) And you're right - Harry's Slytherin side is really showing, isn't it? (I can't imagine why. LOL)
Author's Response: Thank you! What a nice thing to say. :) And yes, I do try hard to ensure that things are properly plotted and proofed. I figure if you are kind enough to take the time to read the story, it's the least I can do in return.
Author's Response: Ha ha ha! I quite agree - Snape must have had a brain freeze from the ice cream to think it was a good idea! :)
Author's Response: LOL! Gotta love Siri. I view him as this loving, thoughtless, emotionally-driven, big, brave, nitwitted kind of person who never had the chance to grow up (the way most of us do in the decade after leaving school) and so is making up for lost time even as he exasperates his more mature peers (ie Remus!). Glad to hear you like my rendition! |
