i'm really enjoying this story. i love the subtlety of it.

favourites list destroyed in post deathly hallows fire need to reinstate dire. Story still much loved.

omg this story was so good! i cant wait to read the rest of your stories!

Excellent story! One of the best I've read lately.. the Harry in a Towel bit reminded me of an ep. in my favorite TV show..

That was a satisfying read, thank you very much.

As much as I wish I saw more of they other hogwartians; I was quite pleased that this story only had focused around Harry and Hermione. The welcome subtraction of Ron was a relief for me right now.

Thanks, I now must add this to favorite stories.

I very much enjoyed that, thank you =) it's good to see Harry coming to terms with things ... I remember a time when that how so many stories ended, but recently (mainly after HBP and to some extent OotP) few seem to have such happy endings, so it was refrshing to see one end so nicely =)

i hope theres an epilogue to this. please please please. its really good

Wow, Hermione took a rather big risk there, with Harry. But maybe it wasn't that big a risk at all, since she knows him as well as she does. Very good story - I really enjoyed it, although I do think the ending was rather sudden. Well done.

This story was absolutely wonderful! I really enjoyed how realistic you made their relationship as both friends and more. This is truly one of the best H/HR stories I have read.

It is sad to see this story come to an end. I really enjoyed this last chapter though. This is one of the only stories I've read that has Harry dealing with his childhood and the loss of his parents in the way you had, and I really thought that was a great element of the story. As usualy, the dialogue and interaction between the characters was wonderful. I loved the fact that went to talk to Harry's parents in the graveyard, it was a really moving part. I enjoyed this story so much, thanks for sharing it. You're a gifted writer, I hope you chose to write a sequel or even another story!

this story is now on my all time favorite list. the way you describe just the simplest situation is absolutely beautiful. I adore the words you use to express Harry's love for Hermione. I just find it so powerful, yet so simplistic. so basically, I love this story

It's bittersweet to see this fine story end. I applaud your efforts; you've written a very engaging and entertaining story that featured a believable storyline and progressed in a comfortable and reasonable pace. I really did enjoy reading how you made Harry and Hermione's friendship a key feature of the story, and how their eventual romantic involvment was a natural progression of that friendship.

Additionally, I truly appreciate the maturity and well grounded personalities you gave to the characters. Not to suggest you are over the hill (I don't even know your age) but your writing suggests a certain maturity itself, and an understanding of relationships that is a pleasant departure from the cliched playboy/girl Harry and Hermione that are featured in a lot of fanfic. I just don't see either one of them developing a celebrity-like lifestyle or personality as they reached young adulthood. I'm not sure if I'm adequately explaining what I mean, so let me know if it makes no sense to you.

I do concur with one reviewer who lamnented the length of the narratives and the brevity of the dialogue. You do write their verbal interactions so very well, that it's a shame we didn't get to see a bit more of that. Also, I too found the ending a bit...sudden? jarring? I'm not really sure how to put it into words, but I was expecting something... more? different? Sorry, I don't know how to put it, so this is probably a less than useless comment for you.

I do encourage you, wholeheartedly, to do an epilogue, though, personally, I think the proposal in Jamaica seems a bit out there to me. I've just never bought into a story that takes place outside the UK; they always seem misplaced and foreign.

I truly did love following along on this story and I'm quite thankful you shared it with us. It was very well written and genuinely entertaining. I hope we'll see more of your stuff in the future. Thanks for sharing.

This is an incredible story! Your level of detail with their interactions, the slow and steady building from their friendship was a great read. I loved their dynamic, the banter, the comfort, etc.. okay I'm rambling.

However I do agree with some of the other readers that we could do with an epilogue and more seeing more of their romance, it did take a while to build so it'd be nice if we can see more of the product.

Regardless, this is adding to the list of my favourite stories, thank you for posting. Looking forward to more of your work

it made sense, the closure part. it was really nice. good work. :]

Sweet! I think u should consider a sequel! I really liked this story! good hermione harry chemistry and I just love some of the quirky comments like the adult rated bits, it was cute, plus the list of things to improve which were definitely interesting from the very beginning. I'm looking forward to more stories in such beautiful tones and honest and sweet feelings which u have so pleasantly written here. Anyways, awesome story, great plot, and excellent writing! Looking fwd to more pleasant stories!
