That was interesting. Odd, but good. Harry reminded me somehow of Heathcliff, you know, the guy from "Wuthering Heights", he was bad-tempered too. I never expected that harry would act like that, but it's understandable after all he had gone through and well, he's a guy |

This is a great story! It's sweet and straight to the point. I wasn't quite sure if the anger Harry was feeling was because of the war or jealously or uncertainty of the future...nonetheless, I liked the story a lot! |

haha, wow. Ok, I didn't really laugh the first time I read this, but the second time through, it really is hysterical.
Harry's reaction was very random the first time I read it, and I didn't really like it that much. I thought it was TOO ridiculous and out-of-place. I didn't think it was very appropriate for the characters.
But then, I went back, and I see what you mean when you said that in the older films and books, couples don't really date. They've known each other long enough. It's not about dating and being stereotypical. And I couldn't see Harry and Hermione just dating after the biggest war of the wizarding world.
I loved the wedding dress. I just like those scenes and can imagine them really well. Whenever a girl is in a wedding dress, but not getting married. That carries so much significance (and it's oddly ironic, isn't it?)
Lovely story.
much love, jae |
Author Feedback: Thanks so much for giving Appearances another chance. I can certainly see why people might be put off with Harry's sudden burst of temper, but I don't think it's that far-fetched, given the situations he and Hermione have been through together. I enjoyed the wedding dress scene too, and lifted it almost word for word from The Little White Horse. If you've not read that book, please consider doing so. You can see where JKR got some of her ideas. Also, it's being made into a movie, but will go by the name, The Moon Princess.
Thanks for taking the time to read and respond with your thoughts!

it's so cute! I enjoyed reading it, especially the part where Harry roared about Hermione not marrying Viktor. I thought that was hilarious!  Poor Harry!  But,as I said it worked. That bit of humor worked!
Looking forward to other stories! |
Author Feedback: Thanks very much! I hope to have some other fics up soon.

I really like your writing style, but I felt that Harry's anger near the end was VERY abrupt. Maybe a bit more build-up towards his jealousy? Either way, the idea of Harry finally voicing his feelings to Hermione from seeing her in a wedding dress is cute. |
Author Feedback: Thanks!
You're not alone in believing that Harry's anger was too abrupt.  My defense is that I did portray him as agitated toward Hermione over several weeks' time and, once he thought all might be lost, he blew up. This scene is even more abrupt in TLWH, which is what I was trying to emulate for Annearchy.
Thanks very much for reading and taking the time to review!

What a sweet and darling story!  Boys are such silly idiots! They really don't have a clue! It's a good thing they are so unbelieveably adorable. |
Author Feedback: Thanks! At one time, JKR did say that Harry would examine his feelings. That's one of the scenes that I'm looking forward to reading, with the hope of H/Hr being the result. Thanks for reading! |

Wow. What a way to settle a marriage. I definitely enjoyed reading this story. Great job writing all the sentiment within the characters. |
Author Feedback: Thanks! Harry got a little overwrought, didn't he? That scene was fun to imagine between Harry and Hermione. |

I'm glad that you are back!!!!! this was a great story. I can see Harry losing it like that. Are you going to write anymore storied like In-Between Places??(my fav fanfic of all) |
Author Feedback: Thanks so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I do have some other fics that I'll be posting soon, but none the length of TIBP. That one was only supposed to be 4-6 pages when I started!  Thanks for reading and taking the time to review. I'm glad to be back. |

How funny. Harry can be so clueless sometimes. Just to blurt it out like that. Very cute little story |
Author Feedback: Thanks! Harry is unbelievably (literally) clueless about some things in canon. It'll be interesting to see if he begins to perceive things in DH that he seems to have been completely unaware of this entire series. Here's hoping! |

...um that was certainly ....unexpected THEY WERENT EVEN DATING ......hmmmmm |
Author Feedback: Sorry to blindside you but, as JKR said that Harry and Hermione wouldn't go on a date, this kind of scenario might not be that farfetched. That's the way it happened in TLWH and certainly some of literatures greatest couples never went on a "date" before a proposal was offered. Sometimes, you just know, given the day in and day out experiences you have with a person, that you're meant to be.
Thanks for reading and taking the time to leave a review!

An excellent little story and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I sometimes find proposal scenes a little tired, but you injected a fresh perspective to it that I appreciated. Thanks for sharing. |
Author Feedback: Thanks! I have to give credit for the proposal scene to Elizabeth Goudge as it was lifted from TLWH.  |

Scary. Sorry, I'm just not a big fan of bipolar Harry. |

Scary. Sorry, I'm just not a big fan of bipolar Harry. |
Author Feedback: *laughs* Sorry, didn't mean to scare you. Harry was just a little stressed out after everything he'd gone through and his fear of losing Hermione to Viktor got the better of him. Thanks for reading! |

This was wonderful. I loved seeing Harry's reaction to Hermione in a wedding dress. That he demanded she marry him and not Krum was fantastic. Very well, kind of sweet.  I loved that scene. |
Author Feedback: Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. If you've read The Little White Horse, by Elizabeth Goudge, you'll recognize that scene almost word for word. Except between Robin and Maria, of course!  |
