This is very good. I very much agree with both your beginning and ending ANs. I don't like Ginny very much (though I don't dislike her) but I do hate a Harry and Ginny relationship. She matters about as much as Lisa Turpin or some other random person until book six(book five in the ministry doesn't count as mattering...she she went cause she was there) and even then only because of Rowling's desire of have all the Weasley's get who they've always wanted and end up one great big happy family. I wouldn't mind that outcome if things flowed naturally to that end, but it was unrealistic on all fronts and forced at best. Anyway, the writing is great. The naivety, and arrogance is well portrayed, as is the eventual disillusionment of each leading to her growing up (and unfortunately, in this case, still not mattering..at least to Harry).

Lol. I was busy waiting for Dumbledore's damned POV when this showed up. I am a Harry/Ginny fan because the fairytale image of 'potters and redheads' intruiged me years ago for some reason. However, I am also a fan of bashing ginny fics which is a strange paradox but this is fanfiction so screw it.

I like this POV and it does sound realistic... to the littlw weaslette of seven kids i mean. It sounds like how maybe she would thing.
