Woot! finished!
okay... the comments, lets forst get rid of what annoyed me: You use "OK" waayyyyyyy to often, I guess that word is used a lot in dialogs in real life but reading it so often was quite annoying. Oh and I am still not happy with you killin Casey, she was cool! and lastly, you sometimes use french word/sentences the problem is that using an online translator is a bad idea, you should get someone that speaks french to help you out (if you don't know anyone I'll help just send me any questions you might have)
My favorite part of the story was just after the death of Casey, I think you dealt with the angst part really nicely. I do think he got over her to easily, but what ever its you story you do what you want with it :)
Well I m gona stop with this review, I really enjoyed reading this story and its cool that your fanfic writing muscle stopped being rusty and I am sure will be getting better with the sequel.

You know, I got the oddest feeling reading this story. And not odd in a bad way, mind you. In many ways, it seemed as if I was reading two different stories- The first story, where Harry gets a job in the muggle world, learns how to fit in in said world, and falls in love with Casey.

And then you killed her. Bastard.

I'm not ashamed to say that her death, and the subsequent funeral, had me in teas. Very well written, that.

And then you moved onto Harry's time at Hogwarts. Suddenly, he was falling in love (a little to rapidly, despite any internal time discrepencies he might have had from his transformation) with Ginny. Casey was pretty much forgotten, aside from a few brief moments (including one excellent moment during Christmas). That was probably the one and only thing I disagreed with in your entire story- Harry fell in love with Casey; he should have mourned more.

Other than that, it has been a fantastic story ( I took to downloading chapters to my PDA and reading them at work and, aside from the two chapters befor the big battle that I skimmed, I hav read each and every single word. This has been a brilliant story, and I can't wait to start reading the sequel.

Great job,

Great story! I loved your idea about being sick can make you stronger, something I hadn't seen before, though I have noticed similiar things popping up everywhere since I first read this on FF.Net. Hope the sequal is half as good as this!
