    Title: A New Destiny
    Author: foursidedtriangle
    Rating: K+
    Genre: General (AU)
    Status: WIP
    Pairings: None
    Summary: What if, by some lucky chance, Harry had been at Mrs. Figg's house when his Hogwarts letter was supposed to come? And, what if Harry received letters from more than just Hogwarts? AU.
    Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2568200/1/

    Harry was outside the Private Drives wards when his Hogwarts letter had arrived, so all the other invitation letters had arrived too (Dumbledore had set up mail filters to make sure Harry ends up at Hogwarts - great idea). Harry decides to go to Beauxbatons.

    Nice idea. Harry's character is better than canon too, more powerful and focused on his studies. The author had just started writing the school year, so it's not certain yet whether this story will go on (many people find it hard to write without Hogwarts diapers).

    So, it has potential for now. We'll see how she handles the new enviroment.

    its an interesting start and i'd like to see where it goes. no real cliches so far except for the harry bonded to a snake bit and the bank bit. I hope they keep it up without hogwarts to sustain it.
    The Triwizard tournament could be interesting

    Yes, i've been reading this. I've actually been searching for more stories with Harry going to other schools in his first year. Most of them stop though even before he makes it to school.

    This is quite nice. The author hasn't overdone the French accent yet and it isn't very cliché yet so it's in my good books.

    Read it too. Great start, and hopefully it will continue this way.

    I think Fleur is going to be in his year instead of being older... not totally sure though.

    Check the archives for chapters 01-18, or wait for me to upload the latest copy of the archives and get all the new stuff as well.

    I thought it was there? I was still receiving story alerts for it. From what I remember, it was quite original. There's not many stories with Harry going to a different school early on. It would be nice to read more of this.
