Hee, strip exploding snap sounds excessively dangerous.

Author's Response: Yes, it does, doesn't it? I would think you would have to extremely careful if you played it--or extremely desperate maybe!

I bought Northanger Abbey yesterday; this story of yours must have been wired into my subconscious, as I went into the Classics section of the bookshop without realising. Hehe. I haven't had time to read much yet, but so far Isabella and her brother are so aggravating and annoying! (As a matter of fact, I think I'm at this same part of the book - when Catherine realises John's deception.) I see what you mean about the extent of Catherine's naivite; I couldn't imagine Ginny being like that at this age. The characters here in your story are much more subtle in their actions than Austen's original, which I suppose they need to be.

In this chapter, I liked the moment between Ginny and George in the kitchen and also about Hermione and Ron's relationship. It builds up a picture of Ginny's life outside of the balls and parties of the Quidditch world; the world that she was used to.

I think I'll enjoy reading Northanger and your story in parallel; it's quite interesting seeing all the connections between them.

Author's Response:

How fun that you are reading Northanger Abbey at the same time! Though I'm sure my story will pale in comparison. Austen is such a master storyteller. On the other hand, my story is only superficially like hers--I had to change quite a bit to make it work. The original is really a parody of the gothic novels of the day, so the characters are really overblown and the plot is pretty farfetched. I definitely wanted to tone it down!

I'm glad you liked the bits about the rest of Ginny's life--I was hoping to contrast it with the balls and the like. I'm glad it worked! Thanks for the review and I hope you enjoy Northanger Abbey!

I love your story! I do wish Fred was alive in this one, but I understand why not. This Rocks anyway!

Author's Response: I wish Fred was still alive too, but I'm afraid we need to deal with canon (at least up to a point--maybe not the epilogue!). I'm glad you're enjoying the story!

I'm not really liking Isabella at the moment.

Can't wait to read more! Update as soon as you can. :D

Author's Response: No, there's not much to like of Isabella at the moment, but there will be even more of her in the next chapter! Thanks for the review!

That good for nothing Isabella. Great Chapter.

Author's Response: Yes, Isabella really is beginning to reveal her true character, but she's not done yet! Thanks for the review!
