I think your story was excellent up til the end - I was up all night trying to read it. It's one of the few D/G fics I've seen lately where the characters seemed totally in-character - like, they were as I see them. And the plot was simply excellent - I never even saw the whole Neville thing coming until she recognized him (before you actually said his name, I just knew. It was so perfect!). The only problem I truly had with the fic was the way it sort of ended unfinished - we never go to see Neville truly taken down. The part when the evil guy loses is always my favorite part. But I did love the way Draco and Ginny (finally!) got together - I was actually a little worried...I just want to thank you SO MUCH for sharing this story with us!

You know, while reading this I thought this resembled The American President. I was actually going to mention it in this review. It's one of my favorite movies, so that's probably why I noticed. Anyway, good show except for the lack of fluff/smut...lol.

Wow, this story is amazing. I'm usually only into one shots and shortlets, but you really got me hooked. This is an excellent little peice of writing, and I look forward to reading more stories by you. :) Happy writing.

wow, that was amazing. I love the ending, it would have been ruined if they were both blubbering sweet little nothings to each other, I think that you pulled it off very well. The plot was great, not too slow, not too fast. And the whole Neville thing completely threw me off! Wonderful story, I'm going to go look at your others.

I loved this story, and all of its plot. I was actually shocked during many parts of the story, I didn't see some of the things that took place occuring...which I love! Of course, the D/G was great, and the suspense and romance of the story had me hooked throughout. Looking forward to reading other stories by you. :)

I love this story! I started reading it and just couldn't wait until another chapter was up. I love the ending even though it seemed a little rushed and I would have liked for it to continue a bit more. The characters were wonderful and just perfect, basically. Your next story will most definately be just as wonderful, and I'm looking forward to reading it. Excellent!

*sigh**sob*
/me is crying like a baby
You can't stop this fic here! I'll really miss it ç_ç
But, I must admit that this is a good ending. You know, it seems ready for a sequel (yeah, I know you don't want to write it, but still I have this impression), simply because you resolved the relationship between Draco (you, *bloody* bastard... Gabrielle was right!) and Ginny but you left the conclusion of others things left to reader (but I was so happy that Hermione and Ron understood that they *must* stay together!).
I mean, we know that Neville is trying to be a second Dark Wizard and that Ginny hasn't killed Danika. But, how could Bulgaria and our heroes stop him? How can he catch the power so easily? What about Ginny carreer? And... ok, I stop with questions XD.
By the other hand, I liked Draco's interpretation of Bulgaria and its few laws: I think it's a good way of governing a nation, just because too many laws just increase the desire of eluding them. Another thing that I liked was the re-union between Draco and Ginny: you know, if you made them sweety and full of sugar, they would be totaly ridiculous. Instead, you mantained your character as they were after their spiritual growing: Draco finally understood the meaning of the sentence "a Malfoy alwyas gets what he want" (and you shouldn't read it only by an egoistical point of view) and Ginny was freed by her terrible weight on her back. Just wonderful you description of the energy between them and the scene in the salon: she untied her hair and got rid of her shoes... and he was so sexy (may I say something like that? Lol, it's too late, I've already said it :P).
This time the description were much more powerful than usual: the scene during the press conference was very realistic. The rythm was fast and slow together, giving really the idea of the convulsion of the moment. The speech was good and formal, even if you gave some hints of her attitude in that moment (you know, you described also how she got dressed: it remembered me of the beginning of the story, when she was all house and work. During the story, her behaviour changed a bit and now she came back to start... just a good shade of the situation!). But, you know... even if I liked very much this chapter, the 41st still remain the one that I like more ^_-!
So, now I'm waiting for some more stuff from you (for instance, what about the PB?), simply because I think you're and awesome writer! *hugs*
