Review: The only reason the score is as low as it is is because these are one-shots, so there's no continuity from chapter to chapter. There were only a couple of very minor mistakes as far as grammar, punctuation and spelling. But, all of the stories were fun to read, and the writing style seemed to improve as you work through the stories. I think a couple of these would be great full-length (or novelette length) stories, so that's something for the author to consider. Otherwise - great job!

Review: This book, so far, is well written and thought out. The author seems to be developing the characters along with the story so the reader gets a sense of their personalities as the story moves along and the characters age. Because you're working with established characters make sure to always keep the timeline accurate to what has already been written in canon. I do recommend a slight alteration to the cover as it's so dark it's almost impossible to tell what's on it - just lighten it a tiny bit.

Review: This story is an interesting take on amortentia vs. love. There could be a little more character development as most of the characters we have only previously met in their much later years or through their descendants, so it's difficult to think of some of them as anything but chaotic evil henchmen of the future Lord Voldemort. Do a little character development so we like/love/hate them vs. feel ambivalent about them and their problems. Also, find someone you trust to edit for you - there are a lot of instances where small words are completely missing.

Review: Firstly, the reason for the low score in the "planned out" category. As this book is one-shots there is no continuity needed from chapter to chapter, which makes it much easier to write.  Several of the stories within were quite fun to read, and I think a couple of them could easily be expanded to novelette length by the author. It's hard to determine if we like characters created by the author vs. the ones established by JKR as there's not much time in a one-shot to develop them.  A couple of the stories didn't feel like they had definitive endings, which for a reader is frustrating. Pay attention to the words you choose so as not to misuse them - there were a couple misuses throughout the different stories.

Review:  This story has a pretty interesting concept. It starts with the main character (Amy Parker) having dreams that terrify her, but we don't know if she's precognitive or a seer (the story is not complete so I'm assuming the author will bring that in to play later). There are quite a few of misused words - I recommend the author spend some time with a dictionary. The characters and plot could both benefit from some fleshing out - don't just explain things from one point of view, and try to make your scene transitions smoother. And be very careful when using someone else's characters - Snape speaks and acts out of his established-by-JKR character. The author made a comment about deleting the person Amy was having nightmares about - think about that very carefully. If that person is your main antagonist for the story I don't recommend it.

Review: I love this writing and with some editing this book could be really good. The grammar was on point, and so was the spelling. The oneshots were cute, short and funny, though their plot could be clearer. Onto the bad stuff: The writing could get a bit bland at some points and the dialogue could get confusing. The shot were a bit repetitive but were still fun. Some plot holes and inconstancy.

This book just fell a bit flat. The author is loyal to her plot, but the grammar, lack of punctuation and choppy dialogue outweighed the good for me.While I do get that this is a series of one-shots, these felt more like drabbles and head cannons.The good stuff: I always appreciate sticking to the books characterization and not making the characters OOC. The shots are really cute, but the author could go deeper with her plots

The tenses were pretty good. The title, while it did fit the story, was really basic. The characters themself were okay and I understand why the author didn't feel like she needed to dive deep into their characterization since these are people we grew up with. My biggest concern is how much the plot would drag on and on, and it sort of felt like the author had this really cool idea but really didn't know what to do with it. I would love to give this author some credit for her amazing world building and how she would fit characters from various movies into this world.

Review: Firstly, this book is I don't know how many chapters in but there is still no sign of a plot/conflict or any romance developing. My biggest concern, character-wise, is that the friendships in this book are so bland and we only really know the M.C's friends by name. Writing could use a lot of work, cause sentences like these bug the heck out of me "He smirked at her. She blushed. He winked. She rolled her eyes." I don't know, I just don't like that sort of writing. It feels really choppy and unedited. Now, onto the plot. I do not want to be rude but honestly, the only hint of a plot or conflict we've seen so far was the b**chy ex-friend. I get wanting to take it slow, but this is too much. The good stuff: Ignoring the sometimes clunky sentences, the writing is pretty good, but could use some editing. I like how this book portrays Grindelwald as a father, and think it fits his character perfectly. I like the little rivalry going on between Tom and M.C and I love the muggle tolerant Slytherin pureblood.

Review: The writing, the grammar, the uniqueness of this book are just so good. The author doesn't shy away from gritty or serious topics and I respect that so much. I'm not gonna lie and say I wasn't a bit iffy about the whole arranged marriage thing, cause it's so overused, but this book makes it so different and honestly I have no words. The only reason it got an 8/10 for planned out is because I felt that there was a solid plot but the author maybe didn't know how to get there. Onto the characters. I really did love  the characterization but they sometimes feel a bit flat. Otherwise this is one of the best books I've read so far.
