REC: Young People for Progress (Snape, Gen)
Title: Young People for Progress
Author: bluemoon02
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Severus Snape, Lucius Malfoy, Romilda Vane, AU, Gen
Fandom: Harry Potter
Summary: After the death of Harry Potter, Severus Snape struggles to find a purpose in his life, and is over-whelmed at the changes being made to society.
Why you should read this ...
It's a very chilling but compelling read. The historical parallels the author draws are effective and the attention paid to details makes the story very vivid. Snape is carefully handled, and while the diary sections didn't work for me as I have a hard time imagining him with a journal, his tone and attitude were certainly spot-on. Perhaps the clincher for me with this story was the ending. I don't want to give anything away, but the parallels to certain events in canon and the way the author handled Romilda Vane is striking.
