Something In The Water by Seren
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: He's Harry, little Harry the Seeker who was small and stubby and cute in the same way your stuffed animal is cute. Katie Bell's got a problem. Post-War.
Date: 10/21/06 Title: Chapter 1: Something In The Water
Very creative! It's very well written, and I like the style. Straight-forward and yet very interesting. I like it.
After the War by honeydukes_10
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Harry has just gotten home, to the Burrow, and many surprises are in store for him. What has happened to Ron? How will he react to the changes? Why is he getting a letter from the Ministry? Does he have to leave again? All these questions and more are answered in this story of love, hate, and secrets.
Chapter 2: Surprises Now Up! Please, guys, read and review! I would love to hear what you think about the story!
Date: 03/10/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1:Welcome Home, Harry
Oh my! I'm so curious as to what's happened to Ron!
I really like where you're going with this. It's well written, and is able to update us as to what happened while at the same time keeping with the story. But I just want to let you know that "Muggles" is capitalized. Besides from that, it's lovely!
Kate -> Knight of the Turnip Table
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! I will change that ASAP. I had no idea I didn\'t capitalize the word.
I should have the Second Chapter, \"Surprises\", in queue by the end of the week. I am finished with it, I just need to send it to my Beta. So, watch out for it!
Thanks,
~Andrea
Meet the - Children? by Winged Artemis
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily Evans is a cheeky, brainy, hopeless romantic seventeen-year-old Head Girl with a sour temper. James Potter is an arrogant, hilarious, prank-pulling seventeen-year-old Head Boy with an immature head on his shoulders. Lily loathes James and James loves Lily. Blahblahblah.
However, when a mysterious locket and a very wacked Headmaster inform the two of them that their son is in grave danger, James, Lily, and of course, Sirius, are magically transported to the future to meet James and Lily's son and the state that the magical world is in.
A twist of mystery, fun, romance and some Sirius humor! And with a wee bit of J/L, H/G, and R/Hr!
WARNING: Tree climbing Dumbledores, valuable pieces of jewelry, and an ecess of sugar are contained inside - oh, and HBP is disregarded.
See profile for update information.
Date: 12/25/06 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter Three - Meeting and Eating
Wow, very nice! My favorite character is Lily, she seems to pride herself on being more mature and more smart than the two time traveller's with her, and yet almost gives them away! Nice contrast. Although, I hope that Harry is just being nice because he's Harry, and not because he likes Lily (ewwwwww. sorry.)!
*This review brought to you in exchange for beta'ing my secret fic on such short notice*
Kate
Author's Response: *giggle* Haha! Thanks so much, Kate! No, I am NOT going to make Harry and Lily fall in love. *shudder* And you\'re welcome. Your story was totally awesome, anyway. :] Merry Christmas!
Draco, The Babysitter by mgle_teacher
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: After a potion goes awry, Draco finds himself as the newly appointed babysitter of one Hermione Granger, age: 4. As if that wasn't humiliating enough, his wand is confiscated by Potter and he is forced to do everything the dreaded Muggle way.
Note to my readers: This story has been on hiatus forever due to a variety of factors. I do hope to finish it some day, but don't hold your breath. Also, this is NOT a Dramione nor will I change it to be one. Lastly, I am in the process of rewriting this story so bear with me.
Date: 02/28/07 Title: Chapter 5: Nap Time Drama
lovely, lovely, lovely!! I really can't wait to hear what happens when Draco wakes up. . .and of course Hermione would have a stuffed lion (especially named Bob!). You're doing a fantastic job!
Kate
Author's Response: I know right! Bob! Pure genius. *lmao* Actually, Bob was the \'filler\' name but then I liked it so Bob it is.
Date: 11/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: Exploding Cauldrons
Yay, Ritta!!! Congrats, and the other reviews sound great. You're doing such a nice job! (FYI, I should be up-and-running Saturday or Sunday for Chapter 2)
Kate
Author's Response: Awww, like I\'ve said don\'t worry about it so much, Kate. I understand and I\'m very patient. Thanks for betaing for me - your suggestions made all the difference.
Date: 01/26/07 Title: Chapter 4: Morning Tattletale
*ponders attacks Ritta with grammar skills*
*attacks with hugs instead*
you're doing so wonderfully, Ritta! I'm glad to see Chapter 4 up; you're better at updating than I am! I can't wait for Chapter 5, so hit me with it whenever!
oh, and I can kill the writer's block for you. with my killer grammar skills, and all. . .
Kate
Author's Response: Oh you have killer grammar skills - don\'t doubt it. I\'ll hit you with Chapter 5 when I finish getting it written, don\'t worry. *hugs* Ritta
Your Star by Hansolohpfrk
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: The final assignment for DADA First Years, ProfPosky, Professor.
Hermione Granger knows that he isn’t there. He had received the Kiss a long time ago. But she decides to go to talk to him. HG/DM
Date: 03/19/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Oh! This is so sad, although romantic. I really like the "For a minute, there, I thought he was actually turning into a decent human being" line. It is very true to character, and fits the situation very well.

Slainte by dragonwings
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Cheers! The Marauders are in for a wild ride as they conquer hearts, pranks, and friends. But the quartet has changed... Bridget McGuire is your skinny, short, glasses-wearing, youngest child pure-blood. But after being neglected by both her mother's and father's sides of the family, she's decided that her time at Hogwarts will be a time that she will never forget and always remember.
Date: 03/23/07 Title: Chapter 3: Breakfast at Hogwarts
This is a very good fic so far. Interesting idea, having a fifth Marauder! However, I do have a question. How did Lily know the other girls before Hogwarts? Since she's Muggleborn, she wouldn't have been able to know all about the magic stuff, so I'm a little confused.
Keep updating!
Kate -> Knight of the Turnip Table
Author's Response: Thank you! I had Lily know about magic and all that other stuff, because I wanted something kind of original. But there\'s a good explanation- Lily\'s mom was best friends with all the other girls moms when she was pregnant, because she met them at a lamaze class or something (I\'m still working it out, there\'s going to be a flashback later on about Lily\'s mom) and so when the mom\'s decided Lily was old enough to keep a secret, they told her. I thought that if she was the brightest witch in her year, that she should at least have a bit of magical background.
The Ravenclaw Quibbler by Ravenclaw
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Welcome to the Ravenclaw Quibbler!

*snobby huff* How dare they dis-planet Pluto? How dare they!
Lovely job, everyone. I like reading the connections between Muggle and Magical world
Good-bye by tc015
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Remus Lupin has now lost everything that mattered to him - his friends and the love of his life. Weeks later, he makes the desicion to lose the last thing he has in hope of a new life. This is sonnet from his point of view.
Date: 02/11/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Oh my! I really like this poem; the rhyming scheme gives a depth to it, and despite the untimely death of Remus, it is beautiful.
However, to make it even more effective, you can work on the comma usage. Commas are not needed at the end of every line, and some lines would work better without a comma or with a period.
Whether you write more poetry or not, keep up the good work!
Kate -> Knight of the Turnip Table
Author's Response: Thanks! I also have a hard time with punctuation and poetry. It\'s something I need to work on. I love Remus and hated killing him. But I had to for the sake of the poem. I plan on writing a lot more poetry though.
Annoyed by Gemma Hawk
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Susan Bones and Draco Malfoy have a game going on, and Susan is sick of it. But once she overreacts, will it ruin her "friendship" with Draco? SB/DM
Date: 02/10/07 Title: Chapter 1: Annoyed
Hm, interesting. I've never read a Draco/Susan fic before! Although this was very good. When is this taking place, may I ask? I really like Susan standing up to him and yelling at him. It's a great touch.
However, despite how much I enjoyed it, there is one thing that I have a problem with. There aren't that many, but there are a few grammatical errors. Such as "you're" when it should be "your." Obviously there are not too many, or it would not have made it through the queue, but I suggest getting a beta or just someone to read over it and let you know if there are any grammar errors. But besides from that, I love it : )
Kate (helgaandgodric) -> Knight of the Turnip Table
Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m glad that you liked it! I I\'m sorry about the grammar errors, I know how irritating they can be. I\'ll have a beta look over my stuff next time :)
This is taking place during Christmas hols in seventh year. I chose 7th, because then Susan has a good reason to be really fed up with Draco, and it leaves a lot more open.
Thanks again!!
Bittersweet Nostalgia by BloodRayne
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: A dream causes recollections of a former love, and the hate she would bestow at what her lover’s become.
This story is for the New Year Challenge, specifically, the Dreams challenge, written by BloodRayne of Gryffindor house.
Date: 02/02/07 Title: Chapter 1: Bittersweet Nostalgia
This is very sweet; I had never thought of Snape turning away from the Dark side because of love! But it is sad. . .of course, you are the author, so you knew that :)
Specifically, I love your descriptions of Dorothy at the beginning. The contrast later is so drastic; it adds a certain level of drama to it all.
However, I was wondering if wizards/witches can have leukimia, or Muggle diseases (other than cold and flu, I mean) at all. I don't know, I'm just asking.
Personally, I would like a sequal about Snape asking Dumbledore for forgiveness, and then maybe a dream the following night about Dorothy be happy. Or something like that to finish it all off.
Kate - Knight of the Turnip Table
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I\'m really glad you liked it! As for Muggle diseases, I acutally posted a thread on the forums asking everyone\'s opinions and it became filled with contradicting opinions so I though - what the heck?-I\'ll just go with my storyline.
A sequel...hmm...I\'ll have to think about that...Thanks again for the review!
Almost Perfect by HPwizzzard
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Lavender Brown is pretty, popular, and pampered. She as great friends and, most importantly, a great boyfriend. Yet Lavender's life is not as enviable as it appears to be. One worry just won't leave her alone...
Warning: This story contains the pairing of Ron/Lavender. Read at your own risk.
Date: 06/30/07 Title: Chapter 1: Storm Cloud
Hm. I liked seeing the insecurities of Lavender, as well as her feelings towards Hermione. We all know that she got a little jealous of Hermione, especially later in their relationship, but it was nice seeing what you thought they might be. Also, I thought you really had Lavender’s character down. She seems to only care about the physical part of the relationship, and talks about how “girls like her cannot afford anything more than the most superficial feelings.” I specifically loved that phrase, and thought that it really encapsulated Lavender into one person.
Aside from that, though, I am a little confused about one thing. You say, “The perfect friends, Parvati and Padma, who make her feel like the third twin.” However, I was not aware the Padma and Lavender were friends. Whenever we encounter Lavender, she is either with Ron, or with Parvati. We never see her with Padma.
Overall, though, I would have liked a little bit more, like how the picnic ended or the reader finds out what Ron was trying to tell Lavender. I did like, it though, it just seemed to end very abruptly.
Candles Burn by lily_evans34
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Hermione had never listened to the darkness. But now, it's all she can hear.
Written for Project SPEW 007. My prompt was "seven".
Date: 03/12/07 Title: Chapter 1: Candles Burn
That was so deep. I mean deep like you can almost feel where that feeling is coming from in Hermione, you feel like her, understand her. It's an interesting style; is there a name for it? (Like all the paranthesis and Roman numerals)
Rachel it's fantastically written, albiet sad, but beautifully written. *huggles*
Kate
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the review! *endless squishes* (I don\'t think there\'s a name for this style... and I don\'t think the parentheses and Roman numerals necessarily go together. Twas a results of Rachel messing around with her style. XD) Thanks again for the lovely review! ♥
In His Head by BloodRayne
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Peter continues to feed his hatred...where will it take him?
For the April Challenge, Prompt 1 (Succumbing to Darkness), by BloodRayne of Gryffindor house.
Date: 08/08/07 Title: Chapter 1: Feeding Hatred
Wow, Hadeer, what a marvelous job! I love the way you wrote Peter. I would never have thought about him being upset about being teased, or about standing up for himself at all. Granted, all that we know about Peter is from James and Sirius, and a little bit from his teachers and Madame Rosmerta in PoA. I said this in my SBBC discussion, but I really am a fan of the way you incorporated canon into your fic. Like, you took the details of what Harry overheard in the Three Broomsticks in PoA and turned them into key comments that affected Peter.
Simply marvelous job, and I’m really glad we got to discuss this fic this month!
Kate
Author's Response: Thank you, Kate!
