    Ronald Marvolo Lestrange » by Loony-1995 reviews
    Finding out that you're adopted and the siblings you love are just distant relations is hard and learning that you're not actually a redhead or a Gryffindor is even harder. But finding out that your Mum is Bellatrix Lestrange is the hardest thing of all.

    I don't see how finding out who your parents really are would suddenly invalidate some hat's decision on what house you should be in.

    What's shocking to me isn't the summary, but the fact that enough people have read it enough to give it 470 reviews..

    1. Dumbledore, young in his 70's? (He was born in the very late 1890's, I think?).
    2. Riddle was pretty much evil/became evil from when he was young - orphanage exploits, anyone?
    3. Oh, of course it has to be slash! Because it's SO romantic, Harry saving the 'innocent' Tom Riddle from going evil! :facepalm

    Heh. I actually read that one a while ago, though I don't remember the summary sounding quite that bad. I liked the author's time travel fic. I never read any of the other stories though. Other than that, I have no excuse.:facepalm

    Here are two from the front page that deserve to be in this thread:

    Seventh Son of a Sevnth Son by fragonknight01
    Harry Potter is the 7th Son of Severus Snape, and Tom Riddle is his mother... Now that this fact is known, events are put into motion where the world as wizards know it might just change dreastically.

    Hello piss-poor Mary Sue/Self-Insert!

    Aside from those, the author just gave away her...twist? I dunno, in the (and I hesitate to call it this!) story summary.

    Weasleys and the potter castle by Arttos-Karhu reviews
    Harry and Ginny are born in bouth 1980.Ron is an year older and Harry has six siters.An different bigining, ending and prophecy with a way of making J.K.Rowlings storys different.
    Harry Potter - Rated: T - English - Adventure/Romance - Chapters: 1 - Words: 1,076 - Reviews: 4 - Published: 4-3-11 - Harry P. & Ginny W.

    The summary represents the story quite well:
    Important notes: James and Lilly are born 10 so they are as old as Molly and Arthur and some parts/persons may come earlier or later in the storeys.

    Year 1973

    Hog's Head

    Dumbledore was siting at Hog's Head waiting for some one, whose name he had forgotten, wanting to try out for Hogwarts new Divination professor. The only problem was that Divination isn't a special or wanted subject.

    After drinking tree butterbear Dumbledore saw her. He stood up,"this way miss!" He lead her to the stairs and looked inside the pub and saw an hooded person siting and looking at his direction at the far corner of the pub.'this can't be good' he thought and followed her up to an room and looked the door.​

    Now I want to try a tree butterbear, too :(

    What I don't understand how can a person with a wizard and a god as parents have something like a normal muggle life.

    If you are the child of a god, does anyone care what the other parent is? Other than human?
