I agree with everything that has been said about your story so far. It's written very well!

I found myself horrified and anticipating more at the same time. I myself am a big fan of Ginny stories.

I actually decided to register here just for the sake of giving you a review. Keep up the great work!

Wow, Julian, that was...holy hell. Ginny is one fucked up young woman. Reading the part where Tom beats the shit out of her was tough, but I'm at least happy that Harry made it there in time. I hope. I'm really, really curious to see how he's going to react the sight you left us with.

Once again, the dialog expressed is so spot on, character wise, and has such a great flow that I feel caught in the middle of the conversation like I'm in the room with them. Lovely job on the trio's breakfast. I lol'd at Hermione's exasperation with Ron's smugness over their boinking.

Harry is great in this. I am so eager to find out what's going to happen when he catches up with her, if he'll let his dark side out and give her exactly what she is hoping for. The use of the boggart to bring Tom into a corporeal existence for Ginny is quite creative. It makes a certain kind of logic, and the whole boggart thing is an idea from canon that was never fully explored, so kudos.

Your Ginny gets more and more fascinating as we go along. Loved the chapter, but can't wait for the next one!

What a riveting first chapter. Ginny's dream was absolutely fascinating and horrifying at the same time. And I thought Harry's conversation with Hermione was so perfectly in character. You have a great way with dialog.

I'm loving this Ginny already. I was never a fan of hers in the series, but I was more disappointed with how JKR wasted her. The entire segment with Riddle's diary was so unsatisfactory, because it should have affected Ginny more deeply. I have always been curious about that, and while I don't typically read Harry/Ginny stories, if the author takes a look at those characters' dark sides, I'm all over it. Hoping you continue this and stay steady with the updates. I'm totally intrigued.

And thanks so much for the review you left for me :)

Wow, Ginny really let loose on Harry, didn't she? I feel kind of bad for him. But I'm sort of hoping he comes to his senses, lol. I'm utterly absorbed by her plight and am so curious how you're going to bring Tom into this. Lovely writing!
