amulet chapter 1 . 2/19/2004

faer chapter 1 . 8/26/2003
I like this. No, I love this. Dark, twisted, and such raw emotion that you never seem to find in fanfic anymore...well written.
Lalaeth chapter 1 . 7/29/2003
A very well written tale of how even love can be twisted in the hands of the unscrupulous and how light can be turned to darkness by hopelessness. It could happen.
OhSoSheWrites chapter 1 . 5/2/2003
Interesting. Dark and depressing, but very interesting. The way you portrayed Ginny's decent-how her feelings for Harry changed her, was very thought provoking.
Ava chapter 1 . 4/19/2003
whoah...that was so good it actually invoked a review out of little old me! love how each chunk ties in altogether at the end. great development of Ginny's character as well! i absolutely love these short, intense, and powerful fics.
Hermione the Slayer chapter 1 . 4/7/2003

To all who might be reading this review, hoping to c what ppl's opinions are on this piece, stop now. If u can handle angst, then u won't be disappointed, whatever ship or genre u prefer.

now on to the real review

:O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O

Thats all i could do after reading this fic.

Let me get over what i think is the bad part. H/H didnt end up together. (the chacne that they reconcile is helping me a bit in that department, so its ok. THANK U IMAGINATION!)Oh well, thats just me. Apart from that, nothing i can nitpick.

Now for the good part. Excellent, and i mean EXCELLENT use of literary techniques! Did u take a writing course, perhaps? Symbolism (posion Ivy as Ginny, H/H as the light to name a few) was used. Personification was used (bitterness as a companion to name one). VIVID IMAGERY was done extremely well (my fav line is "The scream ripped out of me, it ripped my innards and the big gaping hole that was my heart."). Like, wow, I can actually c and feel what was going on.

All of these (and maybe more, a lot of literary techniques has been long forgotten by me) has been masterfully intertwined to tell a heart-tuggin story. Even I, a faithful H/Hr shipper, could not only understand Ginny's reasons, but also her emotions. True, i feel sad at their relationship breakup, but i feel even more for Ginny (which is a first).

Sure Ginny-lovers might say she is OOC (and might even hate u b/c of this fic). But dont pay attention to them. The way u developed Ginny from her current character in the books to what she was in the end was ENTIRELY believable. Trust me on this, I'm really, REALLY anal retentive about OOCness.

Who says good fics are long series? Fics like this is the reason why i favour one-shots over 20word fics.

Ill stop now. Not because theres nothing else to say. But because, in the end, there is only one thing that I can say...

WORDS DONT DO THIS FIC JUSTICE!

Nuff said, hope u keep writing. Until then, may writers block not plague ur thoughts!
dejavu5 chapter 1 . 3/9/2003
absolutely glorious.. one of few stories that evoked actual emotions in me and i can relate to it.. great style, very personal. the description of conflict of evil within and love is impressive,keep writing
Xia chapter 1 . 3/8/2003
This was astounding. It was was almost absolutely flwaless, so dark and twisted, yet so characteristic of Ginny. There were no obvious flaws, the minor characters i thought a little out of character though. I wouldn't say that Malfoy was interested in Ginny in the slightest, so he wouldn't bother listening to her whine, although their psyciatrist/patient/twisted friends relationship worked rather well. Lord Voldemort/Tom wouldn't have bothered doing all of the sex ordeal, he would have manipulated her in a better and more practical way. He wouldn't have let Ginny live either, she couldn't have got away. Harry i don't think would have been so fast like that, kissing loads of girls, but i suppose as he got older. i suppose he might have done. Don't take that one too seriously. Hermione, i agree, would have been more level-headed after a small embrace. And Ron, IS. NOT. IN. LOVE. WITH. HERMIONE. WHY does every single goddamned fic have to have Hermione/Ron in it somewhere? It's pure bullshit, and complete and utter sickly fuck. I hate it so much. Cut the Ron/Hermione out of it. Please. Someone.

Apart from those few points, it was marvolous. Excellent language, very dark, great repetitions, you have a flowing but jagged style. It's very interesting.
XOX chapter 1 . 3/7/2003
I thought I already left a review for this fic, oh well.

This story is perfect, and if this is the end of it i'm really gonna cry. I really really really wanna know what happens next!

O, sexy Draco all loving and caring. OMG u killed Ron! EVILNESS. ok, i never really liked him, but sereously, how could u kill him?

Nyways, plz continue. I want more, no i NEED more of kewl fic! Love darkness and pain, don't hold any back. Readers beware!
