Claiming Hermione

I really hope I haven't posted on this story already, but I doubt I have already. 

Claiming Hermione by ilke is amazing, a great story, perfect for a first time Dramione reader. Why? Because the characters aren't drastically changed, it just draws you in... By the end of the first few chapters you sort of can't see Hermione with anyone else. I don't really know how else to say it...

Location: AFFN

How Good? Up there with Contrast! I'm having good luck finding great stories lately!

Status: WIP

Pairing: Dramione

It might not seem like being in my top stories is a lot, but literally... After going through my criteria, which if anyone doesn't know is rather particular, it has kept my interest so much that I check every couple of hours for updates. I rarely do that! Especially with how annoying AFFN is. This story is so well written, so HOT, so sexy, and just so witty... 

**Being well written (good grammar, minimal spelling errors, and written like a writer, not a fanatical fan) is so important. I recently read, well started reading, a story... something about Harry and Draco switching places during a vital time prior to/during the War. I loved the concept, but was revolted at the grammar, and just wished someone else could have had the idea. Or could just rewrite it for me... Oy!

**Stories

I have yet to finish a story! 

I really don't feel like writing about a story that has not been finished yet, but I imagine I will have to with Claiming Hermione. 

Currently, I am re reading a story called "More Than Anything by dynonugget over at AFFN. So far, the only thing I don't really like is the fluff. I miss the old Draco! The mean Draco! The snark!

**When I get a chance

I plan on writing a review of the story The Wedding, a Lumione I finished yesterday! I can find all sorts of stories when I just search deep into the archives of sites....
There was something else I read this morning... or rather, last night, that I will post on as soon as I find it again! And get internet... :(

**Check In

Alright, sorry about the long wait between posts. I have been looking around for an apartment while living in a place in the middle of nowhere, no internet, no tv, nothing...

But I have a phone, a Blackberry, with internet, and I have managed to continue reading quite a bit!

So I am reading three stories right now. One, a WIP is Claiming Hermione (Dramione). Another, Heart and Soul (Luna/Draco thought I'd try something new!). And my current obsession, Love Thy Enemy (Lumione).... I will be posting about Claiming Hermione as soon as I can get on a computer long enough to write about it, and put the links and email the author and such.

Oy, I just realized that a different Harry Potter fanfiction award place is Quill To Parchment. I never really paid much attentiont to anything other than the Dramione Awards... So QTP is where I found that Luna/Draco story... it is actually rather sweet!

Match

Match by Mental was and still is a surprise. I have never attempted to read anything other than Dramione, Lumione, and Dramionaise, and this was a great leap from the norm. I was totally shocked as to how well written this story was, how well developed, and how well the main character grew on me. It was a journey into the past of the HP series... What a wonderful trip!

Location** HPFF

The summary for this story is:

"Ze Meridian has a serious problem: despite the skirt, everyone seems to think she's a boy. Desperate to prove that having short hair, a bloke for a best friend, and a serious obsession with sport does not mean she's lacking in feminine wiles, Ze enlists the help of Sirius Black to set Hogwarts straight about the question of her gender. And since Sirius has just entered into a bet with his friends to see who can remain celibate longest, he shouldn't have any trouble keeping his hands to himself...should he?"

Warnings: Strong Language, Scenes of a Sexual Nature, Substance Use or Abuse, Sensitive Topic/Issue/Theme

Rating: Mature

Length: LONG, 38 Chapters so far, and it seems like it's just getting started!

Time Period: Marauders

Pairing** Sirius/OC

Alright, so it is very high up in my favorite stories. I can relate, I can understand the characters, and there is nothing left out! It's like... a soap opera, with cliffhangers galore! But like I mentioned before, it seems like it will go on forever and ever, like it will never end, but phew! It is definitely the business. 

**What's Up

Just letting everyone know that I am going to be traveling for a few days, going home! Pretty much a cross country trip! So I wont be able to write as often as usual. 

I have been reading Match by Mental. It is pure amazing ness. I can't put it down. 

**Match

I think I might give a story called Match over at HPFanfiction a try. It is like number one top rated stories, most reviews, most favorite... Its not a Dramione, it's a Sirius/OC. I don't even read much Sirius... All I can say is that he's better than Remus and Severus.
