Reviews For Right in Front of Me (Book 1)
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!! :)
Author's Response: The thought of entering Spinner's End induced a full-fledged panic attack for Harry. I'm sure it was also in part of what just happened to him, but still... The poor kid just can't catch a break!
Author's Response: Yes, it was. I try not to get to detailed about it since this story - and sexual abuse for that matter - is not truly about sex. It's more about the struggle for power over someone weaker than themselves, and Dudley has definitely become a twisted character throughout his childhood. This is my first ever FanFic, so I apologize for not thinking to add a warning. I will do that now. Thank you for the review!
I love how realistic you've kept Snape and Harry. I love the humour too, that you've injected into the seriousness of the situation. Good job. Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm so glad that you're enjoying it!!
I am SO, SO, SO glad that Snape saved him! Snape's rage is so validating and real. What a terrible scene for him to come upon! Fantastic descriptions, I could practically feel the emotions in this chapter. I don't blame Snape for shooting off such damaging spells, or for reacting so strongly and viciously to Harry's attack. He was a Death Eater, and it makes sense that he would get pleasure from engaging in his darker side when met with an injustice he could do something about. We all know his heart. Great background to Snape's character, not wanting a rape to happen again if he could prevent it. I loved the description of Snape's spell work being like a Muggle gun. He truly can be deadly, and fast when he chooses or needs to be. It was smart for Snape to leave the scene, and to get Tonks to come in and deal with the mess. He clearly was not in a good place to deal with it himself, and neither was Harry. It was in Harry's best interest to get him out of there. Poor Harry having his first apparition trip though! And with an empty stomach, it probably made it even worse! It was cool to see Snape use wandless magic to open and enter his house. I love, love, loved Harry's thoughts and thinking of what Ron and Hermione would say if they had been there. Awesome. Harry had such powerful, controlling emotions. I loved seeing the struggle between his panic and Snape's barely-keeping-it-together control. Harry must have felt very vulnerable without his wand. I loved all the descriptions of the surroundings of the house as well. It can be hard to write that and have it stay relevant and interesting. It was almost as if I was seeing the house for the first time, and the descriptions were very vivid. Well done! I love this side of Snape. Fantastic chapter, and fantastic story so far! This is quickly becoming a favorite! Author's Response: I seriously feel like Sally Field at the Oscars right now - "You like me, you REALLY like me!" lol. Thank you so much for giving me such a huge case of the warm fuzzies!! :) I hope the characters continue to please. |
