    The Magical School of MogenHeld
    by corey123 [Predictable:1] Reviews - 13 Beginning of the summer Moody gives Harry many magical books that start our Wizarding hero on his adventure. Then he leaves the Dursley's to stay at Grimauld place but finds out about Sirius's will but Dumbledore won't let Harry go to it. Harry is determined so he runs away to the will reading and ends up finding out his ancestor once ran a school many years ago but it has been closed for quite a while. With a place to finely call home, Harry spend the rest of his days training and trying to stop Voldemort. Packed with action, adventure, and some romance!

    Ok, so the summary itself is actually quite informative, but coudl they have fitted any more cliches into it?

    There are still some original pairings. Even for fangirls. Probably never used before. At least not to my knowledge. But then I don't want to know ...



    The readers praise her. Even the following one:

    Nevertheless I didn't read it. Is anyone in here to give it a try :p ?

    I read it. Or skimmed it at least. It's not *too* awful but I see zero redeeming value in it. And of course the supposed pairing is horrifying enough to never mention the fic again.

    Severus is of course a misunderstood sweetheart struggling with pain and angst and all the usual wretched tripe. Moments like this tell you all you need to know:
    "Cry you little bitch, cry! I want to taste your tears. Mmm... they're so salty." Okay so that's not how Luna responded but a fella can hope. The author put some method into her madness and gave no possible reason anyone should ever be attracted to Severus, which is better than you know, twisting him into something worthy of oxygen. Oh well. Not as awful as SSLL sounds like, but there's no reason to click the link for it.

    Then I think you'll get a chuckle out of this one.

    The Return of Snape by Excessively Complex reviews

    Snape's return after Voldemort's rebirth. Will Severus manage to keep his true loyalties a secret? Slash. “My Lord, I long to be your most faithful servant once more, and I long for you to trust me once more, like you always did…”

    Well... I think it's safe to say that Snape isn't LEADING this little slashtastic butt romp...

    What in god's name does that mean? Reborn as Shadow Snape? So, is he a Snape with such an awesomely cool first name as Shadow? Or is he the supped up version of Snape with Shadow powers after Snape gave his life for Harry after emotional tears and buttsecks?

    And following this amazing statement of sexiness, he also has scars and slightly 'altered face' (probably with double the greasiness), and Neville and Draco are helping face the scary Boogey-men in his mind. Seriously, what the fuck?

    Actually, if you discount the stupid Snape-as-loving-mentor, the fic to which that one is a sequel, Broken Mind, Fractured Soul is actually pretty damn good. Too bad the sequel screwed it all up with the stupid adoption ritual and Harry/Draco buttsecks. Also in that story, Harry is returning to a school ran my McGonagall becuase he killed Dumbledore, not Snape.

    I found this little gem on a random trawl through peoples favourites lists, though I can't remember whose list it was on (Which is probably for the best). Between the obvious mispellings and the huge list of tags I'd rather not think about it set off every bad fic alarm in my head except the slash alert. Why this hasn't been deleted for NC-17 content (Not that I've read it, but I really doubt you can write M-rated violent, incestuous [Fleur AND Gabrielle?] pedophilic rape) is beyond me.

    EDIT: Oh, and if you don't know what some/all of those tags mean? Be glad.

    I knew that was familiar. That story is currently being re-written and is in my alert list..though now that I've seen the summary of the original version I wonder if that was a wise deicison... Here's the sumary of the current one for shits and giggles:
