I am very amused by this author's list on their profile.

"1. Instead of having a name like xxcheezburgerzxx choose something more sophisticated, like a book title. Cheese Burgers, Dark Days, or anything you want, so long as it's properly spelled and without numbers. It leaves the one looking at your name to think 'Wow, she/he can actually spell!'"

Erm, what? So, I am not considered a mature writer that everyone will take seriously because I created a penname for myself that is very original? I mean, I could have gone by 'The Little Genius' on fanfiction sites, but how original is that? And my other pennames are French names, and at least one of them I go by is the anagram of my real name.

... So, I guess I am not taken seriously as a writer then, lol.

I don't honestly understand the point of this list. It makes this writer into a pretentious snot with a holier than thou attitude. I mean, if you feel this way about writing in general, then maybe apply that with your work?

As for the story itself, I admit that I am a little confused about it. The inconsistencies for one are rather annoying to me. So, is Amanda the werewolf or is Delilah the werewolf? Are they both werewolves?

The explanation that this author gives for why most of her characters had their animagus forms so earlier is not very... well, it's not explained at all. It's just a way to make these characters better and more special than the canon characters.

I don't know what to really think about this story. It doesn't make sense, and the special powers that these young children have makes them unbelievable and unlikable.

Oh wow, I just realized that Andrew here was the uncle of these children. I can assume that the father is a member of the Nott family? Or would Adrianna be the Nott?

I'll read on, but I am not entirely sure if I want to at this point.

Andrew's the uncle not the father? I'm glad somebody caught that, but I think that just shows how bad this one is. The story's just confusing.

I agree with you on that. This story is definitely very confusing. One point, I feel that Andrew is the father of the children, but then the next minute he is the uncle that refuses to take care of the children because they are related to the Notts. Though, how this relation is, isn't very clear, either. I mean, was the father a Nott or was the mother?
