k fyi, infamous - having an extremely bad reputation
or basically, famous for being bad. idk if you just didnt feel like goin w/ canon or what, but im pretty sure that in the books, mrs weasley is a good cook |
Author Feedback: Hm, i see. Yeah, I found that out a while ago, but it was too late to change it in the chapter...
Mrs. Weasley will remain a good cook, regardless of what happens in the story. Thanks for reading and reviewing.  |

Well, Harry's change of heart was a bit too sudden. One moment he was set on killing himself, and the next he thanks Hermione for saving him? Doesn't really make sense to me. |
Author Feedback: The sole reason for doing that was because I didn't want to drag the angst out...he gave it some thought, and decided it wasn't worth putting Hermione through what she experienced all over again, especially when at some point he would see his family and Dumbledore again...
I don't really know the dynamics of the mind when one comes back from the dead, but this is about as close as I managed to get.  |

Er...wasn't he engaged with Hermione when he died? Shouldn't he be happy to be able to live with her now? I'm confused... |
Author Feedback: Put yourself in Harry's shoes...he's been living a happy death, getting to know the life he never experienced in the afterlife...but to make this less confusing, let's just say that Harry is torn between staying with Hermione and going back...this is still a big deal for him. |

So, Ginny raised him from the dead, because she still loves him, right? And why was Hermione angry at him? It's not his fault! |
Author Feedback: Right...Ginny still has a desperate, lingering love for Harry when she raises him. And Hermione was angry, because...well...she had two years of frustration to git rid of...she could have chosen anyone else, but unleashing it on Harry would just make things more interesting. |

So ginny called him back from the dead? Or would have him been back on his own anyway? |
Author Feedback: Ginny didn't only call him, she resurrected him back to the world of the living...
There's no way Harry could've returned on his own, except as a ghost... |

mmh, interesting start. Can't wait to see how it progresses. And of course Hermione would be devastated, they had been engaged...poor girl... |
Author Feedback: It progresses quite extensively...I can't see why I just don't combine the two stories into one...
And yeah, Hermione is upset...it's a whole wonder she didn't kill herself. |

Was glad to see the suicide scene, I felt he was treading it last chapter. Good to see hermione had the same feeling. The slap was kinda ironic. |
Author Feedback: Agreed...she really showed him.
Thanks for reading and reviewing, and be sure to check out the sequel...Full Circle: A Second Turn.  |

Harry's quite a bit depressive, I figured he'd be happy to be back with Hermione, though being with his parents, sirus, and dumbledore would be good reasons to stay... Suppose I just figure Hermione would be worth it. Kudos! |
Author Feedback: It's the transition Harry is experiencing in moving back into the world of the living...he's undecided between going back and staying with Hermione...and he eventually makes the right decision. |

I do expect to see Ginny pay a price for casting a spell. Ressurrection to a satisfactory level (as in fully aware, his own person, and well and healthy) would/should take quite a bit of power (not saying ginny doesn't) and take some toll on the caster, be it loss of a few years of life, or her health getting worse to make up for harry's rebirth... Hope you see my point, because i'm outta ideas to explain it. Glad to see the dream turned out as I hoped as well. The ending scene was well done, I thought. Another cliffy, but it isn't so bad when the next chapters already up. |
Author Feedback: Ginny already paid the price, in the two years of recluse and self-denial she imposed on herself to research the spell she needed...I'd say she is powerful enough to carry it out without ramifications. I do see your point about the consequences for her, but I didn't want to put her through other hardships, which already include her aforementioned isolation, and then Harry's wrath to deal with. And yeah, the next chapters are already posted, well on the way... |

Harry yells some nasty things at Ginny. His life was miserable before he died. He has no interest in being alive.
Wasn't he engaged to Hermione a week before he died?
If I were Hermione hearing Harry yelling all those things I think I'd just back away from that whole thing, quietly crawl into a corner and die. |
Author Feedback: Hey! I apologize for the late reply.
You have to understand, Harry wasn't willingly brought back...he was engaged to Hermione, but the confusion of coming back has opened up an old wound within her and a irritably confusing mix of feelings in him...and this story is the adjustment from death, back to life and a sense of normalcy, if you can wrap your mind around it... |

again, it felt a bit rushed, but all in all it was a very good story! it made me sad to know that harry wanted to commit suicide but looking at it through his point of view i could see why he would want to. i liked how it was the whole near-death-experience that brought him back to his senses!
great story! |
Author Feedback: Thanks.
That last chapter is the longest, and it was meant to explain a lot of things...I probably should have split the plot over more chapters to make it flow easier...
And that's exactly the effect I go for...make the reader feel what the character is going through.  Good thing Harry finally saw the light.
Again, thanks for reading.  |

whoa! i thought that Harry was really harsh on Ginny. but i guess he is known for his temper, and she did bring him back from his peacefulness.
it was a good chapter but i felt that it was really rushed.....
on to the last chapter!
|
Author Feedback: That's the thing - immediately after returning, Harry is still confused and angry...I knew I had to spread the plot out, but then I still intended to keep the fic short...which explains the irregularity of the chapter lengths...
I agree, it is a bit rushed, but I've ironed out many of those details in the sequel.  |

why did Ginny bring him back? does she still like him, or something? I must find out...on to the next chapter!
ps. great chapter. i noticed that one of the quation marks was backwards.....it's not even that big of a deal, but i feel like when im leaving a review i should try and help you out, even if it is a teeny tiny detail |
Author Feedback: Why did she bring him back? Yeah, maybe she likes him...actually, yes she is still bent on having him for herself at the point where she brings him back...but he eventually puts her in her place.
OK then, I'll keep an eye for the direction of quotes as well.  |

hello again!
this chapter was very short, but again it was good.
yay! harry's back! the only thing i actually noticed was that there could have been an apostrophe added in to one of your 'its' but like last chapter nothing extreme!
next chapter, aWAaaaay! |
Author Feedback: hey.
Yeah, short chapters were an issue when I was writing this story...I was still grappling with which way the plot should go...
thanks for reviewing.  |
