**A story I'm reading

Currently I am reading a Lucius/Hermione story called Wizards Porn by Utopia over at AFFN. 

It is pretty wonderful, and very well written. But the true Dramione fan in me cannot imagine Lucius anywhere near this yet... It just doesn't match. 

I think it's because I've developed my own little pickiness when it comes to fanfiction, and I guess I should clear some of that up. Not the pickiness, but why I don't bother reading most stories, because in reality I start about 5 stories in order to get into 1. I guess that doesn't make sense. I will search all day for a story that passes my inspection. Then I will read it.

I guess these are my rules:

-Until recently, no WIP stories or single chaptered ones. It drives me nuts to get into a story that hasn't been updated in 2 years. 

-No first person POV stories. I cannot read that way, the character whose POV I'm reading through is never really developed... Literally, I have started Dramione Award winners, but as soon as the 1st person thing is realized, I go back and look for something else.

Lucius/Hermione

-Time travel, I don't really understand the idea of Hermione going back and falling in love with a past character or something, like Voldemort/Tom Riddle or some senior Malfoy. Keep it in the current!

-A dumb, submissive Hermione. Like, I am growing into D/s fiction, but not so much the idea that Hermione is just waiting around for someone to do her. The Hermione in my mind is intelligent beyond belief.

-A dumb, old, sad, depressed, lonely Lucius is a no. That includes poor Azkaban-damaged Lucius. My Lucius, that I appreciate, is smart, clever, witty, and just plain gorgeous. He has impeccable manners, and can challenge Hermione in anything. 

-I also cannot picture a threesome story with Lucius and Snape/Harry/Draco/ANYONE. Lucius just seems to be selfish. 

-Any filthy Muggleborn/insane Death Eater pairing of Hermione/Lucius is just not going to catch my attention. 

-Any super into the future fic, with a middle aged/menopausal/elderly Hermione is just freaky. Especially if she is a virgin with extremely low self esteem. I guess this falls into the Dramione category as well. Also, I believe in the age system of wizards, that they live to be a lot older than us Muggles. As described in Girl Talk by Snapes_Goddess, a wizards prime age is in the early hundreds... 

Draco/Hermione/Blaise

-Well, Draco and Blaise have to be friends, like best friends.

-I hate a fluffy sweet Draco.... whiny like in A Dowry of a Single Galleon by Krissy. Don't get me wrong, that was a good story, but he was painfully out of character.

-An evil Death Eater Draco who is just raping Hermione. That is just dumb.

-Blaise is Italian to me. I've always pictured him as European, very endearing, and very generous. Not black. Ethnic, yes, European, yes, Tanned skin and thick curly hair, double yes. Don't get me wrong, I'm black myself, but Blaise Zabini is very Italian. 

-I don't do the baby thing. Draco with kids, or Hermione with kids is just wrong, and ruins the entire development of their relationship with their pasts. 

I guess I don't have too many limits on Dramione/Dramionaise pairings because most of them work out fine. I will add more as I look up a new story today. I'm sure I'll find plenty more. 

The Virgin Saint of Gryffindor

I just read the quick one shot The Virgin Saint of Gryffindor by Lexy Malfoy, and I have got to say.... That was an awesome read! It wasnt very long, but it was complete, and even though it's pretty harsh in themes, it's also pretty easy to get into.

The summary for this story is:

"Hermione shook her head and frowned mockingly. "I'm sorry, young Draco. But like a said... you're a bad boy." she grinned madly. "And bad boys need to be punished."

Not So!

**I have fixed the link!

I thought I already posted this story! But I guess not! I just looked over Not So! by ichi.ruki over at AFFN, and for some reason it took me a while to remember it. But I do recall that when I first read it, I was intrigued. It was wonderful, but then I think I followed it with Contrast and Tainted Love... which might have changed my brain quite a bit. 

The summary for this story is:

"Slytherins and Gryffindors do it better than Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws; they end up bound for eternity, the idiots."

Rating: Adult (a hard R or NC17)

Length: Upper 30s Chapters

Time Period: Hogwarts, 7th Year

How Good? Good Good

If you think that Draco and Hermione together is sexy, them being together romantically is sexy, how about literally together all the time? Without giving everything away, Draco and Hermione become the closest two people can become! It's raw, well developed, and complete. Well, as complete as it can be. The ending is pretty lame, I mean, if what they are is just as important as Harry Potter, and just as potentially famous as him, the writer shouldn't have just slipped over the ending like she did...

**Lots of info

Maybe not too much, but it seemed alright to put that. I have been reading, a lot, but it seems like nothing is complete! Ahh! Thats just retarded. I am slowly working my way through Round 1 and Round 3 of the Dramione Awards nominees/winners.

Okay, so I have also added some more criteria in my review, a How Good? rating, and the awards it has received. 

I guess that didn't take hardly any time at all. Hm, well I guess I could update on what I've been reading.

Lucius' Bookshelves appears to never have an ending. Like, literally, she hasnt updated in 3-4 years. She got an idea to write a story called Senior Project, which I couldn't stand at first, and am slowly starting to appreciate it. I think Snape is gross. 

Severus Snape is thick, with a stick up his butt, nasty greasy hair, a gruff old face, and an annoying voice. He has never been soft, arousing, or even interesting. He's just been stiff, mean, and rude. And also, just for convention. he's evil. I cannot understand what the big appeal is with Snarry and Snape/Hermione. 

Senior Project has quite a bit of Snape/Hermione in it. It sort of grosses me out, like terribly. Hermione/Lucius good, Draco/Hermione amazing. It's that that is keeping me reading the story. 

Pas De Deux

I read Pas De Deux by Eilonwy a few days ago! It was pretty nice, though I wish it weren't driven by a play. Like, 40% of the story was from a play.

The summary for this story is:

A simple class assignment poses a challenge and starts a small war!

Rated NC17

Length: 5 Chapters, 10003

Time Period: Hogwarts, 7th Year

Awards: Dramione Awards Round Three,  Runner Up-Best Head Girl/Head Boy, Nominee for Best Smut and Best Kiss.

**How Good? Good Enough

It's a wonderful length, a good day read. I guess I can't really say much more... 

**Another update

Alright so I have been reading, catching up on updated stories and going back to look up more dramione! 

So I have turned to the Dramione Awards to find new stories to read and try. I tried a story called Laid by drcjsnider... it was ridiculously out of character... I couldn't get through it. I started The Bracelet by AkashaTheKitty but i couldn't get past the fact that Theo Nott was the Head Boy. I guess I've gotten picky. 

I am also especially turned off by stories in the first person. I just can't stand it...

But, I have started something else that is working out nicely so far! Pas De Deux by Eilonwy. The only thing that is annoying me is the fact that it's going to be over soon.. Like, its very short.. Arrggh! 

**Alright

This story is so wonderful, I found the name of the story. It is called Lucius' Bookshelves, and I have an email address to who I believe is the author! Yay me!

** An Amazing Discovery

I have found what I've been looking for for ages... A Lucius/Hermione pairing that completes every story that I have read that ended before the "good stuff" started, or hasnt been updated in years. It's like.... Amazing, and this is a story that will lure anyone from Draco to Lucius.... 

I think it is called No Silly Wand Waving Here... It was extremely difficult to find, after numerous clickings and redirecting, and then ignoring the username/password thing, I got to it. And if I had ignored the story because I didn't have password (which I can't figure out how to get), I would shoot myself in the foot. 

Lucius is creepy, but wonderfully so. Hermione is smart, bookloving, and focused. And the fall is fantastic. You know, the fall from sane and reserved, avoiding Lucius at all costs and only doing her job, to giving into her desires and... goodness! And Lucius, he is so developed. He is true to his character, just as Death Eater ish as ever, just as Malfoy ish as ever, and his reasons for reaching out are so... thoroughly explained. It's wonderful! 

I just wish I could contact the author, which i am going to try to do, in order to let them know that I mentioned their story, and to thank them for the story that no one has managed to write yet! This is awesomeness!

Crash Into Me

I just skimmed through Crash Into Me by miafitzpatrick. I imagine that if I had the patience to read it all, it would be really touching. But it may mean something that I had to skim a one-shot...

The summary for this story is:

"He watched her cry once and he never stopped."

Rated NC17

Length, one shot

Accio Knickers

I actually just finished a story! Finally found something worth reading, as it seems everything I start to read and enjoy, isn't complete and hasn't been updated in two years! Ahhh!

Accio Knickers by slipperbread was a surprise find! A great length, a funny story, and hot circumstances! It's pretty awesome!

The summary for this story is:

"Well, what else can 'Accio Knickers' mean?"

Rated NC17

Length... 3 Chapters long...

Time Period: Hogwarts, 6th year? 

Draco/Hermione, Draco/Pansy

**I am reading...

I promise I am still reading fanfiction, I've just been stuck trying to find some good Lucius/Hermione pairings. I gave up last night, and started back on the Dramionaise train. I am addicted, and wish this wont ever end though I know it will on a story called Off Limits by Avari20 over at IATQO... Is it HOT!!! Oh goodness, well I ought to get back to it! I will be sure to post about it after I have finished it, hopefully it's completed already... I don't feel like waiting....

**Another update post!

After quite a bit of stress with my Macbook hard drive, it appears all is well now! 

I still haven't read any new Dramione, as I've been enthralled by a surprisingly "clean" Lucius/Hermione pairing... It's called Ball and Chain by scifichick774. Give it a go, I swear, it's my favorite Hermione to date, and when this starts to get sexy, it will be really hot! Really nice development of the character's relationship...

** Just a quick posting

Just so everyone knows I'm still alive and well, I have been ardently searching for Lucius/Hermione pairings... and apparently I'm very picky. Ahhh! 

I am favoring post war fics, Lucius still has his money, superior complex and everything... I am sick of the whole Death Eater Lucius, prisoner Muggleborn Hermione. I haven't even read any of that, but I would want a consenting Hermione... 

Sigh. I did read something today though, before I read Girl Talk again... I think it was called Draco's Dad by Snapes_goddess. Quite a nice one-shot it was...

What is the Lucius/Hermione pairing called? Like literally, there is Dramione, Snarry, Mionaise.... But what's my newest ship called? 

A Dowry of a Single Galleon

I finished reading A Dowry of a Single Galleon last night, by Krissy and was very very pleased! I quickly got used to the character changes, and was so excited by the plot that I could hardly put down my phone at night....

The summary for this story is:

"My take on the Marriage Law challenge. Draco, after a confrontation with Hermione in Diagon Alley, claims her as his new bride, much to her dismay. "

No Warnings

Rated NC17

Length: 22 Chapters, 82532 words

I was surprised at how long it took me to finish this story but I was pleased by the length. It kept me occupied for a while :). I never really understood the Marriage Law until this fic, which painted a pretty clear picture of it for me. Hermione is so sweet, and kind, and perfect for Draco in this. I guess I am starting with the pros... Lucius and Narcissa retain their superior nature, seemingly dripping in wealth and style, and they have those incredible manners. And the writer only tells us so much about Lucius's past, to keep him mysterious... And Narcissa and Hermione just work so well together... And Draco is so funny and sexy, balancing Hermione's sensible innocence. I will definitely read this again... and again...

On to the cons, although few, they are rather important. Draco is soft. I mean, way too soft and sobby for a one-shot (good thing its a long story). And Hermione gives in really quickly... like early on, and doesn't put up much of a fight. But I guess, they can't really be fighting the whole time.... And I guess I shouldn't give much more away...

Literally though, after this story, I rushed to read some Lucius/Hermione fics. There isn't really even a hint of it in this fic, but the Lucius in it is so desirable, I wanted to read it. So far I've read Catalyst by dynonugget, and am halfway through Girl Talk by Snapes_Goddess. I am loving it... Oh goodness! I hope this is a phase though, since there is so much Dramione out there for me to read...

I do promote this fic, it is amazing, sexy, and you can't wait til the end. Perfect time period changes as well. 

Though... I don't know if it is a problem with the website or what, but every third chapter or so, I would have to click to verify that I was of age to read the story. And then it would redirect you to the chapter list. And by then I forgot what chapter I was on... and would end up clicking on the wrong one a few times.... AHHH!

**Alert...

Just writing to alert that I may not be able to post for a couple days... It seems the Apple Store has taken my computer away :(.

I am still working my way through A Dowry of a Single Galleon.... It is not disappointing! I love it! And the length is fantasmic...

Alright, so I need to get off this PC before I break it... Ciao!

**Read a few stories

Alright, so a quick notice. I actually have been reading stories, I just either haven't finished it, or didn't like it enough to follow it completely. 

Those stories are:

A Place Called Home by Sage

Accidental Dessert by EclecticSista (I LOVED this one... it reminds me of Never Again by Em North)

Amplified Wants by ashleyfanfic

But I have just started A Dowry of a Single Galleon by Krissy. I am only a few paragraphs in but... I am surprised... I think I got confused at one time or another. I thought this was something else, and never wanted to read it despite the reviews and ratings of it. But I am liking it, and the Hermione in it is really likeable :). I have one little confusion about the Weasley brothers but... I will get to it after I've finished. 

Head Girl

Today, I've only managed to finish one story: Head Girl by Jess Lovecat. I will definitely start searching for something new to start tonight, as well as find the story I read last night that I have yet to post... 

The summary for this story is:

"Hermione is witness to something that arouses her... Curiosity..."

No Warnings... but it is Angsty... If I really know what angst is...

Length: 13 Chapters, 11945

Rating: NC17

Time Period: Hogwarts... 7th year...

I really enjoyed this story. I could follow how Hermione was actually feeling, as Draco was particularly distant in this fic. 

Now that summary does nothing to explain or even clue in to what this story is actually about. Maybe it works for the first chapter, but what about the other 12? Totally not working with that summary. It was a good length, but I do wish the chapters weren't so short... Like the last chapter...

Enough with the length, this was pretty good despite some spelling interruptions. And it was quite erotic... It just makes me think, is there a softer version of the Imperious? Goodness...

How Hermione Got Her Ring

I just finished How Hermione Got Her Ring by drcjsnider and I have to say I liked quite a bit of it. It made me sort of think of how a relationship between Hermione and Fred...

The summary for this story is:

"Hermione lifted up her ring-less left hand and waved her fingers in front of him. Comprehension finally dawned on Draco's face. 'You want to get engaged?' He asked astounded. 'Bingo!'"

Warning: Sexual References

Length: 6 Chapters, 22127 words. 

Rating: PG-13

Time Period: Post War

Alright, so this was a pretty nice fic. I guess I favor more skanky stories, so once I finished it and realized that it was rated PG-13, I was a bit disappointed. But it worked out, and it was a great story. I was really excited to see that Snape was in this, and even though I really don't like Snape, I thought he was pretty awesome in his small part. 

One thing that sort of annoyed me though... trying not to give anything away, but Fred? Come on now, how about Blaise? I sort of favor Blaise and Draco for Hermione...

A really nice read, but I don't think I will think of reading it again any time soon. Maybe I am just in the mood for something a little more rough (NC-17). 

***I have added Time Period to the stories and will have to go back and add it to my previous posts... Grrr...

Beautiful Things Can Come From The Dark

I haven't read Beautiful Things Can Come from The Dark by yesterday4 in a while. I remember having it saved on my phone, and reading it... I can't really give the most thorough review without rereading it... Or rather, much of my own review at all, but I can say this: The development of their relationship is the best I have read. How they grow into caring for eachother is rivaled by no other story I have read, and I do remember that much :). 

The summary for this story is:

"He came across her, broken and bleeding, and his decision will alter everything."

Really, the warning for this story is:

Sexual References

Rating: R

Contrast

Contrast by TomFeltonIsKindaHot is currently my favorite story... like, of all time. It is gripping, funny, sexy, and I just want to jump out at it, like it jumps out at me. 

The summary for this story is:

"He always liked to pull out the contrast between the two of them. "

The description of this story is:

BDSM, Unresolved Sexual Tension, Violence

Length: 23 chapters so far, rather long. 

Rating: NC17

This is a long playing great song type of story. It has a groove to it, and a tangled web of lies and intensity. It's gripping, and there were so many times that I just wanted to scream at the screen. The Blaise in this story is incredibly lust worthy, but not as much as Draco... which is a change from my second favorite story The Family Jewels. The Draco in this story... mmm, he just makes you want to lay on your back and... Oh goodness.

Every girl knows they like a scary Death Eater Draco more than the fluffy sweet one. Everyone knows how Hermione must feel, secretly desiring to be attacked by evil Malfoy... The tension, the frustration, so beautifully worked and twisted. And is it sensual... There is a tangle of interesting, I wish I was her scenes... Chapter 21.... I could go on and on. 

Read it. 

The Weekender

I just finished The Weekender by a_bees_buzz. I know! I read a lot, but this was a pleasant surprise. Not so slutty, rather sweet, and a really good Post-war story. 

The summary for this story is:

"Draco Malfoy was a weekender. He would take a woman out on Friday night. By midday Sunday he'd say his goodbyes. Just what she needed. 

The description for this story is:

It's at Coloured Grey so the only thing that is listed is a warning "Sexual References." Duh! 

Length: One-Shot

This was a really nice story, not vulgar, and really sweet. Hermione is really believable, and Draco is just a ball of sweetness. I don't know if this would be called fluff but it is really soft. I just wish that it was finished better. The actual relationship starts so late on that I would have liked something more to develop. 

Room Serviced

I read Room Serviced by pir8fancier last night and thought it was quite pleasant actually. There was one thing that sort of drove me nuts in a way, but the format of the story was nice, and it was a great length. 

The summary for this story is:

"Post Hogwarts: The war still rages on. Hermione learns that any port in a storm comes at a price."

I found this story at Coloured Grey so I can't find any warnings or descriptions.

Length: One-Shot

For a one-shot, this was impossibly thorough. The format, having little snippets of their relations, is awesome. It all comes together so wonderfully, and is quite funny. But everyone who knows me knows that I hate drugs, smoking, and cigarettes. So if you don't mind a slutty, dingy Draco, then get to it. 

I've always thought of Draco as pristine. Angry, yes. Rude, yes. Disrespectful towards Muggles and Muggle-borns, of course. But I tend to think, when he is with his parents or at a gala of sorts, and with fellow Purebloods, he is an amazing gentleman. And by my definition, that is someone who tries to make everyone around him as comfortable as possible. Draco is clean, fresh, and although raised by a maniac, that maniac just happened to have the most beautiful clean, primped hair. Maybe Lucius would be smoking a cigar or a pipe in his study or something (still gross), but not Draco. I don't know how many more ways I can explain it but smoking is gross, unclean, and not something a Malfoy would do. Sure the evil or hardcore Draco could be pictured that way but... Hmmm.

But back to the review. It was good, a great read just before going to bed, funny and sexy. Give it a read cause despite my peeves, It was very well put together.

No Stars: A story and a review

I couldn't come up with a * one star idea... But when I do, I'll be sure to post it. 

***To clear things up

Before someone asks***

I have created this blog to keep track of all the stories I have read... Rather, to try to find as many of the stories I have read, and am reading, provide the information and a link to the story from this blog. In a way it is for personal use, but I really would like a few people to refer to it after a while of me posting. 

So many times have I finished a story, loved it, and then forgot to put it in a bookmark somewhere and forget everything but the plot and a few funny quotes. Then I have to search and search and ultimately give up trying to find it if I want to read it again. 

This is sort of a way for me to remember and have access to it all, remember what its about... And I reckon it will become a resource for other people if I try to advertise it somehow... 

Please, anyone, if there is some sort of issue with my posts, anything illegal or something, let me know. I am giving credit where it's due, providing links and such so... please just let me know if I've done something...

Oh! Well I don't own or have rights to Harry Potter, or the characters... or any of the fanfictions I have mentioned and will mention in this story... Unless otherwise stated. (If I ever start to write my own HP Fanfics...)

Tainted Love

Tainted Love by kerri240879 was a surprise. I found it while searching through my most recent method of finding new fics... the Dramione Awards nominee sites. 

The summary for this story is:

"A secret between two families is revealed during the summer holidays before the start of seventh year, challenging everything the Prince of Slytherin has ever known. The secret threatens to drag him into a place he has never been before. Sit back and enjoy the biggest fall of all."

I haven't found his story on AFF so there is no description...

I really love well-written stories, so I will have to say this one goes along with my previous post. And almost all of my future posts. Without giving much away, the Draco in this story is very close to the one we are used to.Before the author even posts the first chapter , she mentions big change in the regular sequence of events to make room for this other worldly story. And it is really out there. I don't know how to describe it, when the story ventures so far off from the books... And I really really want to see this  new Pansy. I have never been a Pansy fan, but wow. I really want to see her...  

This story has a lot of chapters and is a great read if you have patience, many reviewers have mentioned that Hermione is extremely weak and Draco is just hard, including myself. But it works itself out, so stick with it! It was nominated for a DA for a reason!

The Family Jewels

The Family Jewels by Narcissa Black was and in a way still is my first favorite fanfiction. 

It seems to be never ending! It's like at 61 chapters by now... But I love long fanfics...

The summary for this story is:

"Draco is turning 17, and he receives part of his inheritance."

The descriptions for this story are:

M/F, F/M/M, DP, Oral, Rim, DM/HG/BZ, PP/RW, Pre-HBP

I love this story. It is well-written, has a wonderful storyline, and the characters are so intriguing. I say that because the way Blaise is portrayed is wonderful. He is so kind, and gentle. And the trio works perfectly. Hermione is extremely out of character but it works. 

I guess I haven't figured out how to write much of a summary without giving away the story but... I guess I can say that it is sensual, and so so intense. 

Worth a good read if you are looking for a good amount of story, but also quite a few love scenes. I swear there have to be at least twenty separate events. At least...

**Favorite types of fanfics

Over the months, I have grown to read more and more risky stories. But I guess I ought to start with an explanation as to why I chose the Draco/Hermione pairing. I like Draco. A lot. Ever since the third movie, watching the extras, and I heard his accent, I just thought... goodness. And Hermione is just so... uggghhh! I like her, I do, but there is just something about her that I don't like and isn't fixed until someone like Draco comes along. 

We know Hermione. So much about her that we could all probably give a pretty good imitation of her snootiness. She is wound so tight, that she seems to just waiting to burst. That sort of energy and tension could never be quelled by Ron and certainly not Harry. Blaise couldn't even take on the real Hermione alone... 

We only know so much about Draco, and the sort of life he has lived. With Lucius as a father, we know all too well how arrogant the Malfoy's are, bent on blood purity. But there is room with Draco, to shape that arrogance into something, give it a reason, and change him into someone who matches Hermione. 

Harry cannot be changed, Ron... can't really be either. Fred and George are just funny. No real story could be developed from any of them... I guess maybe Harry/Hermione, but it would just be some serious fiction. Like all make believe. 

Hermione and Draco as Head Girl & Boy is believable. Hermione and Draco as enemies/lovers during the war is believable. Hermione and Draco developing such a terrible hate for eachother that they just go insane and attack eachother in a lust filled rage is very believable. 

I'm not crazy, I'm just a fangirl. Lately I've been daydreaming up pairings. Like when I wake up in the morning, I lay back down and imagine different relationships. Like, after reading Tainted Love by kerri240879, I couldn't stop making up Pansy/Hermione ships in my head. 

I guess I will go back and find as many of the previous stories I've read and post about them... That is going to take a lot of time!

**She Loves Dramione!

Hello all... basically anyone who has actually made it to this site! After a few days of trying to figure out HTML code and how to get a fancier blog template, I've finally gotten one to work! 

Alright, so the purpose of this blog is to record my favorite Draco/Hermione fanfiction. Over the past few months, I have developed an addiction to the pairing. If I am not on my computer searching for it, I am on my Blackberry reading it. In the car, in the movie theatre during previews, each and every night until I fall asleep. Hey, it's better than being addicted to crack! 

Over the months I have found so many different styled fics, come up with my own personal favorites, but the only way I have recorded the most recent ones I've read is through the bookmarks I have saved in my browsers. And with that, as I find a new one that I start to favor, the other ones sort of get forgotten. So I plan on putting the name, writer, and a short description and review of every fiction I have read, and maybe even post a link to it. If only there were other blogs like this!

Alright, so why Dramione? Why not Ron/Hermione or rather, why not just get a pet to take up my time? Because I am a sad person. Not a bad sad, but the sort of lonely sad that comes after and during big events. I suppose I am still a newlywed, and after spending almost two years nonstop planning the wedding, I'm suffering post nuptial depression. I also currently moved from Michigan to Hawaii, leaving behind my whole life and family. The loneliness from that action just spurred on our decision to move back. Last, but actually the main reason I got back into fanfiction, is the finishing of the Harry Potter book series. Once I closed that last book, I closed a part of my life that I had lived through for over a decade. And I was so sad, and depressed that I knew the only way I could feel a little bit better would be to get into fanfiction again. 

Like the banner says, "Every Fangirl Needs Her Fix"  :).
