Thank you! I am glad you thought so! With regard to the updating, I am working on the next chapters of all my stories, and will post at more frequent intervals, now that school is no longer in session.

Thanks for reviewing!

Pax,

Thank you for reading. I know exactly how you feel when you've found another story to read. I swear I'm out of completed ones that hold my interest. Then again it's half my fault for how fast I read. I once read the "A Year Like No Other" series plus story updates, and over 100 pages for school in a week and a half! I figured it out to be more than a million and a half words which if you consider an average novel contains around 100,000 words, that's over 15 novels. Oops. LoL. 

I understand your concern. That bugs me too. I'm going to try my best to not let that happen. In chapter six that I'm currently about 4/5's of the way through writing, I've already started to give Harry choices which should be one way to prevent that because at 15 he should have an input on what happens to him. He's old enough to understand. So, hopefully I'll stay out of that pitfall once Harry really accepts what's happening to him and if I don't warn me before I'm in too deep. =)

Thanks so much for the review!

Now, in answer: I figure that by the time Harry reaches 5th year, he would realize that something was wrong with the Dursleys, and connect the dots. Also, I made them come out slightly more abusive than the books. Well, the concept is the same, just more severe.

And I hope you enjoy the sequel just as much :)
