    AU. Harry, Hermione, and Ron have dreams of being famous. What's a better way of doing that than to start a band. With horny uncles, bickering parents, pranking managers, and friends with benefits, their fifth year is sure to entertain. No Voldemort.

    Just goes to show the depth of characterisation these authors achieve when they can accurately sum up their character in one word, especially with that word being 'virgin'.

    No, it's not a troll. It seems as if the content had been spell checked before it was posted. In contrary to the summary the story is just plain bad and boring with loads of grammatical issues..

    Go and browse through its five predecessors. Afterwards you're permanently desensitized - or an empty shell.

    My God, this is actually readable...I mean, its a terrible idea and the characters are ridiculously out of character, but grammatically...it's not terrible at all. Although the author DOES misuse 'your and you're', along with 'its and it's'. But still...I just clicked it out of morbid curiosity, and was rather impressed with the technical writing skills of the author, given the content.

    That makes me want to laugh and heave at the same time.

    I vomited in my mouth.

    Reminds me of My Immortal. Undoubtedly without My Immortal's charm though.

    Title: Harry Potter And The Dark Phoenix
    Summary: Harry Potter is fed up of Dumbledore and the Order lying to him. But he doesn't want to join Voldemort either. So how can he fight? Can he become just as powerful as Dumbledore and Voldemort? Dark!Powerful!Harry You have light and dark, now meet the gray!

    I’m pretty sure this story was written by a very young kid, about three or four years ago now. The writer seemed very young and unexperienced. They fell straight into a world of clichés. The writer has not updated any of their stories for a few years now- but if they do come back I hope they will wipe out their old stuff and start afresh.
    Actually I'm pretty sure this writer's worse story is already gone, it was about how a pregnant Ginny and Harry were kicked out by Mrs Weasley and along the way met Harry’s magical Aunt who was Voldemort’s lover or something. I felt sorry for the writer, because the story was really, really bad. It was like a crack fic, that was meant to be serious.
