I have to say, this is one of the best fics I have read in a great while! I was hooked even at the first paragraph; although there wasn't half as much dialogue as I was expecting in the opening chapter, your vivid depictions of the characters' actions and emotions more than made up for it!
I am particularly fond of the constant banter between Draco and Ginny. It seems to have its own niche in their relationship, and I love how you are able to make me feel their reactions as they pursue the quit wit of each other's company. You also seem to do so without entirely losing Draco's aristocratic background and Ginny's blunt manner. In addition, I am quite excited to see where the undertones of Tom Riddle lead to!
You are a fantastic author, and well worth the wait of future updates! Although, I must humor myself and ask you to update soon! =] I'm entirely positive that quick updates would not marr your incredible talent with words, nor my penchant for them!
Author's Response: I'm hurrying! Haha. I have a few other things to take care of before I can devote the time to the next chapter. But thank you so much. This review completely made my day. The banter is so important to their relationship. It keeps the fire going that they both need. I look forward to hearing from you further.
I really liked this first chapter. It was a very interesting start. Your style of writing is very rich in description, but doesn't feel loaded with words, as can sometimes happen when you give a lot of details. It's just easy to read.
I empathized with Ginny and enjoyed your description of Draco very much. Nice start. ^_^
Author's Response: Thank you. It is a fine line. I often wonder if I'm tipping over.
THIS is a really good story, it took me forever to find one again, they're so rare these days ;)
Please continue writing, it's just wonderful
Author's Response: I have no plans whatsoever to stop. I'm flirting with a few ideas for another fic, however. If that starts, this one may not be updated quite so frequently. We'll see. Thank you for the compliment. It means a lot.
I really like the writing style of this story, and it definitely looks like it's going somewhere that will keep my interest. I hope Tom will make more of an appearence than as a mention in Ginny's dreams. Mmm...
Author's Response: Oh yes, Tom will certainly be a player in this, I promise you that. Glad to find another Tom lover out there. We seem to be few and far between.
Oh my o_0
Author's Response: Oh my? Haha. I'm not exactly sure what to think of that review.
ooh err... can't wait to see where this goes :)
Author's Response: Glad you're looking forward to more.
what a good start you have. I will be sure to follow this one!
Author's Response: I'm glad it was to your liking and I look forward to seeing what you think of the coming chapters.
