hey i wish u'd continued on that story, its quite interestng this one!

I can't say I had much love for Cho... or any at at all, come to think of it. Reading this really reminded me of that!

I love different POV fics. I think that's one of the greatest disappointments (necessary, but upsetting nonetheless) is that we don't get Hermione's POV in any of the the books. She's pretty much the second most important character in the series, and you know there had to a whole slew of things going on behind those eyes. We're just left to wonder how different those events were for her, so thanks for shedding the interpretive light!

Ah, poor Hermione, having to help Harry when she clearly wanted to be anywhere else. Fantastic last paragraph, by the way. A wonderful follow up to the amazing "Half an Hour". Any chance that we could ever see more from Hermione's POV? You seem to have her locked in incredibly well. Wonderfully written and finely paced. I loved her internal talks. Wonderful story!

I've read this before but never commented, I think. Just had a quick re-read of it now. Very good, but that last bit, about Cho *punishing* Harry, is excellent, very effective, I can feel Hermione's anger.

"Ginny shows upat the table at that moment, for which I'll probably owe her a wizard's debt for eternity"

Oh dear. Reading this *after* the debacle that was HBP ... *am sad for Hermione*.

"After all my explanations that's the only thing he heard, and he heard it as a slight against me. And no one gets to insult me while he's around, not even me."

OMG! OMG! That's gotta be one of the best lines I've ever read! Great follow up to half an hour! Thanks again.

This is a wonderful take in one of the most revealing scenes in OotP. Excellent! Thank you for this POV.

i love your storys from hermiones point of view! its totally what shes thinking too. great job!
ps i HATE that cho chang b!tch

I never dreamed it would be torture.

Every one of Skeeter's questions reopened another bleeding wound. Every answer forced him to relive a memory from Hell. By the end of the interview I knew this would make his nightmares worse, not better. But he went through with it to the end… because he's the bravest man I've ever known.

This is a perfect description of Hermione in book 5. She is trying so hard to be helpful in every possible way, but she doesn't always think things through completely. I'm glad you have given her this insight into herself...that is how we grow.

'Tough.' That must be the guy-talk way to describe it. 'Performing a self-appendectomy with a rusty paring knife' would be more accurate.

ummm, yuck.

and then the whole discussion with him regarding the fiasco of a date with Cho...how painful. I feel the knife in the gut feeling myself. Again, I am surprised by your grasp of the nuances of teen girl angst. (I've *been* a teenage girl full of angst...you, unless I'm tremendously mistaken, have NOT!!

)

anyway, this is a good take on Hermione's emotions at the time of the disastrous Valentine date. Perhaps when HBP comes out we'll have a little more clearance on her feelings.

I love this story! It was beautiful and very enjoyable to read. I hope you write more in the future!

I love this one, really. I like how you put Hermione's feelings.

HA! Lovely, again a nice little fic. I'm actually getting fond of this fics where authors review a scene of a book through a character's PoV, it really gives a new view to the situation. Have you considered doing one of the scene where Harry and Cho fights (you know, when he's going to meet Snape, and they start fighting about Marietta, and they end up with Hermione?). It's a very short scene, but it might turn out in something interesting.

You're a brilliant writer. I really like the way you give us your perspective on Hermione's feelings. Please write more soon!

I really liked this story. I read half an Hour and enjoyed it and am trying to write a fanfic in Hermione's POV about something from the book. Thanks for writing it!

That was interesting. It's an interesting twist, your conceit that Hermione is actively trying to get Harry and Cho together as opposed to my vision of her mostly trying to not interfere, and it's intriguing. I'm fascinated by the explorations of these two moments, and yours is certainly food for thought. Though I can't help feeling that your internal dialogue for Hermione is somewhat ... colder(?) than I would expect. I look forward to seeing more from you.

One point: By the time this conversation takes place, Hermione knows that Neville's parents are in the long-term ward at St. Mungo's and she knows why. Remember this takes place after Mr. Weasley has been attacked. So her "Interesting..." comments comes off badly, she knows exactly why Neville focuses on the death eaters.

Why, that vicious, conniving little…

Gotta love that Hermione! Cho is a vicious, conniving little.......

Wonderful little story from Hermione's point of view. You did a great job with it. Everything seemed to fall in to place exceedingly well!

Thanks for such a terrific version of events!

Take care,
