Feeling for Understanding by AmazingGrace36 starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 15]
In which Dumbledore has been reading far too many books on Muggle psychology and Snape's desire to strangle his employer reaches dangerous levels.

    Very cute. Very clever. And actually touching without being sentimental.

    Author's Response: It makes me so happy that you said I achieved being touching without being sentimental. That's so hard to do sometimes! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Differences Abroad by Nightshade sydneylover150 starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 24]
"I am so glad that you are willing to take him, Professor Snape. It would be a shame if Harry was to be deported without the chance to make amends because he is not meeting the requirements of his visa."

    Interesting. Feels a bit like what I remember of the TV version of Captains Courageous.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you for the review.  I've never seen Captain Courageous, so hopefully when I write the next chapter you'll tell me why it feels like it. 

    *Smiles* Thanks again!

    Sorry to leave a second review but I wanted to clarify. "Captains Courageous" is a Rudyard Kipling novel in which a spoiled little rich boy gets lost and winds up on a ship where he basically has to work as the cabin boy. He learns the value of hard work and respect for other people - even the poor ones! - and becomes a MUCH better person. It was adapted for TV back in the 70s and although I don't remember much I remember I LOVED it.

    So that's why I said this reminded me of that. I mean it as a compliment =^)

    Author's Response:

    *laughs* I took it as such.  I'd heard it discussed by my older co-workers and my parents.  Unfortuntely, unlike MASH it isn't aired where I live as re-runs.  Thanks for clarifying!

Field of Broken Dreams by JAWorley starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 276]

Reviewer: Librasmile (Signed)
    Hmm, actually I REALLY liked this chapter. I've been loving this story all along. Admittedly, though, I thought the last chapter was a little too happy. This brings things back into balance. Cause these kinds of feelings don't go away with just one or even a few episodes togetherness. It's going to take some serious time and work because time without work heals NOTHING.

    I also like that you show Joanna realizing that she made a huge mistake. I thought her telling Harry to leave so abruptly was quite cruel and thoughtless of her. Nice to see the natural payback happen. Because if it didn't it wouldn't be real.

    Can't wait to read your next chapter.

    It was a good chapter. It felt homey and real yet you created dramatic tension. And I can't wait to learn more about Eileen.

    Author's Response: Thanks so much. There will be more Eileen and her story in later chapters.
