    Short fluff story. Read it earlier, fairly enjoyable read.

    Keep in mind that this is fluff, if you don't like it that much, I suggest you not read it.

    That about sums it up.

    I read that a couple of months ago. It definitely is a fluff story and naught more. It is well written and an enjoyable quick read. 3.5/5

    I was in the mood for fluff but this felt empty. Maybe it's because I like a little humor in my fluff and this was closer to angsty fluff than fun, cute fluff.

    But it's a pretty standard little romance fic, written well, and seen through to its conclusion. 3/5 sounds about right, but this isn't one I'll be recommending to others.

    Well written fluff, but nothing too original or nonstandard. 3/5 from me.

    I like it. The author didn't have any annoying grammatical errors and neither Padma nor Harry dropped down to their knees professing their undying love to one another in the first or second chapter. 4/5

    Nothing special, and somewhat confusing at moments. But still, something to pass the time with.

    Pretty good. It doesn't go too far afield. Everything's pretty grounded. I'll say 4 stars because it's nice to read something that's not too syrupy.

    Not bad, a bit ill-defined in certain places. A good short read.
    3/5.

    Was a well-paced romance and an enjoyable read. I felt it left off too abruptly though, could have done with some semblance of a conclusion.

    Not bad. The first fluffy fic I've read in a while and it was good enough to hold my attention. 4/5.

    The end was unsatisfying. It's like, Harry's going to go kill people for committing terrorism. But Padma tells him to let the incompetent Ministry handle it. He does as he's told. The end.
