A well done story. I've hit a bit of a writers block..got a story going on fanfic.net but it' kinda hanging right now. Maybe ssomeones stroy will give the boost I need to get going again.
Take care & Merry CHRISTmas.

Lets give ol Tim a BIG HOOOYAAAAA. All males here, give a unified GRUNT and let's all beat our hairy chests in acknowledgment of his maleness.

Neato- But it would be nice to know the names of Hermione's parents.

You know what would be more helpful was if the Grangers reported the Dursleys. Although suspect that Dumbledore and the Order totally obliviated people that would pry...

Man... I want to see Hermione's parents school the Dursley's. "You judge people and are truly afwul..."

OH GAWD! Why did I decide to be eating and reading about*puke* Aunt Marge's thongs. GAG!

I wonder how you will address the question of why Hermione didn't go to Hogwarts? Why Harry and Ron aren't dead because Hermione totally saved them alot when going after the Stone. I mean the Devil's Snare, the Potion Puzzle, and going back to get Ron and bring him up...

God. Children suck. But I suppose adults do as well. I can never get over how people can be mean and rude to others just because they're different. HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING!

But really good start.

Ok, that was the funniest thing I've read in a good long while, love the guys reactions to all the women in the house.

Because I only read completed stories, I don't always leave reviews. I figure the authors will have moved on. But I had to tell you how very much I loved your copyright disclaimer--anything familiar--what a jewel! Your author's note was entertaining as well, to say nothing of Aunt Alexis.

I'm having a lot of fun reading your rewrite. You've done well so far and I have high hopes for the rest of the tale.

"...After the dessert, they sat along the lake and talked about Hogwarts. And played games like Concentration (does anyone still play that game?)"

I know I've read this before... at least the first few chapters and maybe the whole thing... er.. maybe even reviewed.

Maybe I already answered your question about Concentration, maybe not. If you're referring to the card game where people take turns flipping up cards in order to reveal pairs then YEP people still play that game. A close friend of mine, (friends since we met at the age of eleven, strangely enough) plays that game with his kids who are 10 and 14. When we go for dinner at his place, all the kids and grown ups play together after dinner rather than having the kids feeling ignored or drooling in front of the TV. I remember playing it with my parents when I was little.

Great Story. Hope to see another story soon! Hope you continue the Series!

This story is good so far, if not a bit rushed, at least to me. I can't wait to see where you go with it. Oh, and people do still play Concentration.

I loved your story!! It was really great. The only complaint that I have is that you made Harry and them a bit young. However, it\'s also an upside to your story, as you used their age in your story quite well. Thumbs up!!

i certainly hope that eventually you get around to writing a sequal, i really enjoyed your story
