3.999 stars. It's a guilty pleasure, except that I don't feel any guilt.
In fact, this is my second time reading this fanfic. I enjoyed it back when I read it for the first time, but I wasn't entirely convinced that I liked it enough to read the sequel, especially taking into account how long this first part is. I accidentally stumbled upon a very complimentary review of a friend for this book and its sequel — This Bitter Earth, and the next thing I remember is me fully engrossed in the story, rereading it with keen enthusiasm that would scare a normal, non obsessive person into oblivion (instead of skim reading the story to pay tribute to my bad memory as initially planned).
❥ I have to say that I loved both Draco and Hermione in this fanfic. I loved how they both fell equally hard for each other. I loved how fast their feelings developed and how slow their relationship burned.
I loved the intensity of Draco's feelings, the way he battled his conflicting emotions and impulses on the inside — disdain, distaste, interest, physical pull, attraction, jealousy, tenderness and, finally, rapt fascination, trying to rationalize and weaponize his contempt toward Hermione only to wind up falling victim to her charm xx.
I loved how much Draco loved taking control and how eager Hermione was to render it.
Loved how conflicted and troubled and anxious he turned whenever he acted on his ignoble urges or carried out his mission realising full well that he also carried the risk of being exposed and losing Hermione. The moral dilemma, born from the ashes of the last remnants of conscience and burning infatuation with that one special person, of wanting to act really bad but also not willing to be caught red-handed by the only person whose opinion truly matters? Hits differently. Who even cares about concepts as redundant as ethics and morality?? Their intrinsic value approaches zero. As long as Hermione is clueless about his misdeeds, my boi Draco can sleep in peace and let others worry about the consequences. 😌
❥I loved how much Draco's mental state depended on being in Hermione's good graces.
Drinking himself into stupor, picking up fights, lashing out at friends, saying the nastiest shit and having sleepless nights, jerking off to the memories of her tits or her mouth... all because she said another no. He couldn't take no for an answer from her, he couldn't stomach her contempt, he simply couldn't lose her... what about that? 😌
Such a pleasant development from the haughty fuckboy ready to spew lies to get into her panties, the one who perceived her as nothing more than a nuisance that has to be fucked out of his system to the faithful simp begging on his knees for a small sliver of his little whore's affection. 🥺
It just warms my little heart when deep down I know that if anything happens to the heroine or she leaves the hero, he's not gonna just move on with his life. He's gonna die from alcoholism, a stab wound or depression. 😌😌😌 Moving on is for losers, we die like real men.
❥Of course, each and every time my boi was a sad and hurt boi I was thrilled and excited beyond any measure. Draco's feverish agony was so fun to watch. 🥺 The way he'd viciously lash out at Hermione when we all know how much of an angel he is, how obsessively he loves that girl and how much he agonizes over each moment they're forced to be apart. My boi was literally dying on the inside. 😋 Her influence. 😩
He'd turn from a doting alpha, guiding her to the heights of pleasure while worshipping at the altar that is her body (🤡), into a nasty toxic fucking twat in a span of a millisecond without batting an eye. My multifaceted king adapted his vocabulary and facial expressions so quickly.
And then Hermione would dangle a promise of reciprocated feelings in front of his face, and he'd run straight into her arms like a sick lost little puppy desperate to finally come back home. 😌
He'll behave as long as he has his little slut by his side. He's not asking for much. 🥺
On another note, why did each time he call her tenderly his little slut or whore I felt somewhat giddy inside? Argh, they were so cute together. 🥺
The circle of whore in affectionate and whore in malicious was vicious and toxic and so, so wholesome. Just like everything else about their relationship.
❥I'd write a poem dedicated to Draco's deliciously unhealthy possessiveness and jealously, but I've got no talent in that department so you'll have to bear with my prose and believe it when I say that those feelings are an absolute must in each and every romance book. 😌
An eye for an eye, a hand for a hand. 💀💀💀
Touch his girl and we'll find your fresh corpse somewhere in the filthy dark alley. 😌 (OMG, I ACTUALLY PREDICTED THAT SHIT HAPPENING, LMFAO)
❥ Obviously, Dramione romance was so very sweet here, and as you might know, as anything sweet, it was extremely unhealthy.
Was I rooting for this couple? Yes. I was also waiting rampantly for something to go wrong because Draco served toxic bitterness on a silver platter, and that's my favorite dish. My sour, pouty boi's control would then slip for a few beautiful moments, and it's difficult to say which one is better: him losing control or him taking it.
Draco's sour mood swings inevitably lead to so much trashyenterta angst that I wished Hermione, as the only person that truly mattered to him 🥰, hurt his little feelings more often.
Don't be shy, Hermione. Fuck up his mental health for good, will you? Asking for a friend. 👉🏻🥺👈🏻
❥Also, I just realized that the sub/dom undertones in this story didn't annoy me in the least the second time around. I was actually revelling in the dynamic: it didn't sound formulaic or forced. Quite the opposite, it seemed very intuitive and natural for this couple.
(Normally, I don't like sub/dom vibes because they can be mostly found in BDSM romance, which always comes across as rule-driven and lackluster for me. Anything done in accordance with some regulations and stipulations bores a lover of chaotic spontaneity in me to tears #don't_make_rules_break_rules)
On the downside
❥— don't tell me I'm reading and enjoying teenage smut because my brain seems to be unable to handle the reality of it. You kidding me, bitch?? A 16-year-old kid can't be on my list of fictional daddy doms. 🤡🤡🤡
Can't have those 16-year-olds exploring Kamasutra on myconscien mind.
Bestie, literally no one forces you to follow their canon ages. 🥲
❥— too much smut (it had enough dialogue and substance to it, no questions, but sometimes... less is more).
❥— one has to be in the mood for soapy, cheesy melodrama to appreciate this little gem. 👁️👄👁️
Book two — This Bitter Earth — 4.5 stars (gets darker and more toxic)
He had this habit of staring at her and sometimes Hermione felt like he could see right through her. She would catch him sometimes, in classes, in the corridors, staring at her, watching her. He would sneer and his eyes would flick away most of the time, but sometimes… they would stay.

2.5★
I read the whole thing, so can I really pretend that I didn’t like this fanfiction at least a little bit? for the record I was supposed to be writing an essay due at 11:59pm, but instead I was reading this and contemplating whether I liked it or not.
𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗼
╰┈➤ There were several times in which I wanted to PUNT THIS MAN across a football field. First things first, I understand Draco being annoying and purist and whatnot but THIS wasn’t Draco, this was a mad man. I hated him so much, genuinely wanted Hermione to kick his ass and roll the credits. The pet name being “kitten” made me gag, which isn’t an actual problem I had with the fanfiction, I just didn’t like it. Every time this man said
“My little Gryffindor kitten” I wanted to gouge out my eye balls and throw my phone across the room.
And if you EVER see me say “pats my bulge” please understand this is a coping mechanism for the criminal offense of:
𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗳𝗼𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲
╰┈➤ Girl.. you have two feet, use them to STAND THE FUCK UP 🧍♀️man, she’s better than me cause I would’ve been yelling every profanity I know at this man until he stfu and left, the nerve he had was crazy. Other than Hermione having no back bone, I didn’t have much of an issue with her. I think that I always expect Hermione to be the badass I know and love from the movies. I also have high expectations because of the other fan fictions I read.
“𝗛𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗻, 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗼 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗿.”
I don’t want to go TOO hard on the book, I know I would’ve liked it if I’d read it a few years ago when I was less picky. But nowadays I can’t get over lack of buildup or unlikable characters. My biggest issue with this fanfiction was the amount of smut there was. Which I know, you think Dramione and you assume it’s going to be fifty shades of gray but WORSE. But that’s not always the case. This fanfic though, too much smut and too little character/relationship buildup. And that’s my biggest problem, WHY did they love each other?
I knew I wouldn’t like this after he “pinched her nipples” but I kept reading because I WILL reach my reading goal even if it means reading a bad (IN MY OPINION) dramione fanfiction every now and then.
I think this was entertaining, easy to read, and can be absolutely enjoyable for certain people. But me personally, if it isn’t as good as Isolation then it’s NOT for me.
fine, Zoe and Angel were right.
it was all smut.
I most likely won’t be reading the sequel, but I’ll just assume they end up together in that one.

Soooo… I really liked this! I loved how jealous/possessive Draco was. So angry. So fierce. So mean. So reluctantly in love with Hermione. 😍😍
This was fanfic and I had to kind of let go of some of my normal issues of published books. There were lots of scenes that didn’t really make sense and were obviously just scenes that the author wanted to write for fun… and they were fun, even if they didn’t really make much sense in the story. But those quirks still didn’t make me bail, since I was so invested.
The only other drawback was that I struggled to get the little middle school faces of the Harry Potter movies out of my head. 🥴 At one point they mention being 16 and that really threw me. Draco is a dirty dirty boy for his age. 😬 I just decided to pretend I didn’t know their ages. I mean they *could* be at Wizard College… right?! 🤡
Any way, I was bummed they didn’t get their HEA, but thankfully there’s a sequel!
Bottom Line - this was way more entertaining than I expected. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
⚠️SAFETY SQUAD SPOILERS⚠️
- no cheating or sharing
- OW/OM drama - Draco’s ex bed buddy is forever around to cause Hermione angst and Draco is crazy jealous of all of Hermiones male friends
- Draco gets a bj and Hermione kisses someone else after they’ve had a physical encounter but before either had real feelings
- h is a virgin
- H is a manwhore
- no condoms
- no dubcon - but Draco is very aggressive and doesn’t really ask permission
- lots of manhandling

"I told you not to fucking SAY SHIT LIKE THAT!" he roared, jerking forward.
Hermione jumped back, hitting the shelves behind her again. She lifted her wand and saw that he had done the same. The pain and anger storming in his eyes like a hurricane.
"You're mine," he growled and slowly lowered his wand back down.
"You don't get to just decide that-"
"And you don't get to just end it," he snarled.

Ah my heart. It just hurts. So damn much because not only did i finish this book and its sequel This Bitter Earth with a broken but excited heart but now i gotta explain my thoughts for BOTH books in one sitting now because i was to eager to read the sequel instead of writing a review directly after i finished the first. Oh dear. I loved this one to pieces. Its Hermione Granger with her smart wit, courage and vulnerability and her deep found fascination with the silver eyed and blond-haired and wicked as hell Slytherin Prince Draco Malfoy who is chasing after her and refuses to stop staring at her. They are enemies. They are supposed to hate each other. His filthy mind and dirty thoughts. How he cared zero f*cks. How he pushed her to her limits, and how he made her and himself go mad with agony and passion. Its just bloody brilliant.This author writes beautifully, just totally blew me away with how incredibly this story was done for a fan-fiction.
The last chapter is pure epic poetry by the way.
"He felt as empty as the dark sky above him without even the light of the moon to glisten off of the black waters."
***
Now there was only one way to keep her safe. He had been a fool, a stupid love drunk fool, to try any other way. And look where that got him- sitting on a shitty beach. Alone. Far, far away from her.
"I'll come for you," he whispered to the weak fires of the stars. "I will come for you, Hermione. I promise."
***
And Draco Malfoy always keeps his promises. He is such a romantic Anti-hero (that almost turned into a villain) and he broke my heart to pieces with how broken he was and how out of his mind he was going. His Granger turned his whole life,heart and soul upside down...he came to completely adore her. Ahhhh now i gotta write a review for the sequel as well.This is to much for me!!Its to bloody awesome!!

"What? I'm bored, you're here…" He raised his eyebrows and shook his head a little as if that explained everything.
"So that's it?" Hermione frowned. "It's just because you're bored?"
He rolled his eyes. "If you want flowers, I'll fuck you in the greenhouse."
when he's a romantic 😩 >>
also why was draco sparking up a friendship with moaning myrtle just so he had someone to talk about hermoine with so cute

great writing. same old draco and his antics, yet not. i mean theres only so much u can varies in malfoy without actually changing his characterizations the ff readers love, but this one was a bit boring. still attractive at times coz fr look at who we’r talking bout, but yeah rlly couldve been better. some examples of the dracos (& dramione full of angst circumstances) i actually adore and always looked for in these ff are the ones from manacled, breath mint battle scars, dont look back & the fallout. overall not much to write home ab. they just kept fucking the whole time and this shits no ordinary 400pgs book. if ur into eating the same stuff for bf lunch dinner everyday for the rest of ur life ur gon love this. the connection just wasnt enough for me to stay

Ok so I think GR deleted my original review but upon a reread this was more so a solid 4 stars for me rather than my original rating of 3.5 stars.
This fic has one of my favorite versions of Draco Malfoy in it. I could really feel based off of his POVs, how torn he was in his feelings between his duty to his family and his love for Hermione. Which I loved 🥰.
Original dates read: October 18 2022 to October 20 2022
Reread: February 12 2024 February 19 2024.

4⭐️ SOLID enemies to lovers fic here. I’m not a fan of this trope bc the relationship can be toxic but I actually really enjoyed this one! The author took a loooooot of time to help us follow along the POV of both Hermione and Draco in coming to realize their thoughts and feelings during their 6th year. This work is complete but the story has a sequel (This Bitter Earth which is currently a WIP…. but it better be HEA!) to finish off the story, so expect a semi cliff hanger. Go in knowing that Draco is HARDCORE and dark. He will do *anything* to keep Hermione and him together.
“He makes all the wrong choices but for all the right reasons.”
He’s insanely possessive, the term mudblood is used, alcoholism, sexism etc. but also love and looots of explaining to get us to understand. Expect lots of spice 🌶🌶🌶🌶 and angst too since this is just pre-battle of Hogwarts.
Worth the read?: YES
Reread?: NO (the angst)

Toxic dramione at hogwarts. It's giving slight bm/bs vibes but 6th year instead of 8th year. I really liked it and I need the sequel ASAP.

it doesn't even have an end and really, even tho the author said it has a sequel, the writing is so boring i can't be compelled to read anymore.
the story itself is boring, there's no plot, only violence and abuse, toxicity...
it feels like the author was just throwing violence everywhere.
let's not start with hermione being like a stupid b*tch and soooooo different from the original caracther, like wtf????
this is a joke of a story.

I thought since it said it was completed that I would be satisfied with the end. But it's a freaking first book and the author is only 2 chapters into the sequel.

I hope Draco and Hermione get together 3
It was so cute and ajsdlfjaslkd i need to know what happens.

Toxic and dumb af but I ate it up and am ready for dessert

I’m only here for the smut and there’s A LOT. I am guilty of skimming through some of the plot but 🤷🏻♀️ I did enjoy the retelling of 6th year. The sneaking around and hiding out in the room of requirement is exactly how I pictured their relationship in Hogwarts. There is a squeal in progress not sure if I’ll read. I’m not a WIP girly.

do I want to read the sequel to this?

The smutt was amazing and those lucissa crumb in the epilogue got me soo hyped for book 2!
“Narcissa bent over him, brushing her hands over his hollowed cheeks.
"My love, oh my love," she said tearfully. "You're safe. They can't get you here. Not here. Not with me beside you."
Draco felt the fight leave his father and let go of his arm. He watched his mother smooth his father's hair, whispering softly to him until his mumbling stopped. Lucius looked up at her with pale grey eyes, blinking them as he recognized her.
Then his thin arms reached up, latching around her and pulled her down to him. Narcissa held him back and buried her face in his neck, muffling the sound of her cries against his shaking body.”

Listen, this is toxic Dramione at its finest and I ATE IT UP. Is it my favorite? No, because there are better, but it was fun, angsty, and steamy.

“I don’t want someone like you to love me.” OTNOD was so toxic and I ate it up!! I was mainly in this one for the spice and it delivered 🌶️

I honestly believe I was tricked into reading this. I found this on TikTok and everyone was saying how good it was and that it kinda felt like Breath Mints / Battle Scars, and no, it certainly didn’t.
First of all, this is a 2 part story and when I found it on ao3, it didn’t said anything about it. Had I known it would be a 2 part story I certainly wouldn’t have read it.
This Draco was so bloody toxic, like you have no idea how toxic. I barely could stand him. Most of the time he was drunk, insulting Hermione or being kinky.
Which brings me to the fact that this fic is mostly smut, it has little to no plot. It is a fic settled on their 6th year and it led me nowhere. Multiple times I considered abandoning it but I’ve already abandoned 2 other way too long and way too boring fics in the last month and refused to keep delaying my reading challenge like that. By the last few pages I gave up and read over most paragraphs, I couldn’t be bother with more of it.
I will most likely not read the second part.

June 9, 2023i am really really happy with this ff. i am obsessed with it and that it was a sixth year fic - it was so fun because we all know how half blood price unfolds in the canon series, but seeing this other side was too fun and interesting.
i’m obsessed with draco’s character progression throughout the fic and his inner struggles.
when i started this i didn’t realize it was only the first book, but it seems a lot of the sequel is out. will most definitely pick it up once it’s closer to being complete.

Welp…. What can I say about thisbook porn fest?
❇️ I went through so many different emotions reading this I had whiplash but I got… strangely acclimated by the end? Idk how to explain this other than to say that by the end, riding the wave of Draco and Hermione’s toxic relationship still gave me an ulcer but I learned to enjoy the pain… sounds about as twisted as it gets
❇️ In case you missed it, this story was essentially just porn and toxicity meet unhinged and possessive male character. At first I was annoyed because there wasn’t much plot and literally the story is 300 pages of them fucking and I have never understood the appeal of degradation… but eventually… well… I’ve come to find out I would likely sell my youngest sibling to have Draco call me his good little whore so… do I have a problem? Maybe, probably. Does that mean I want to fix my problem? No, absolutely not. For every insane thing Draco did/said, my cold dead soul rejoiced!
🟡 I did get a little bored at some point because it was the same repetitive routine of
- things are great,
- someone blows up out of nowehere,
- there is little to no communication to bridge the issue
- and we’re going through yet another heartbreak
❇️ BUT, once I accepted that this was just how the story was going to go, I started thinking this is actually brilliant. If you consider Draco and all his bigotry and prejudices, it was never going to be easy to get him to be a halfway decent person. At some point, I wanted the author to do more to get Draco to question his bias… until I realized… this story isn’t about Draco choosing good, it’s about him choosing Hermione and Hermione only, the rest of them be danmed… andddd queue the part of the story where I promptly compromised my good morals yet again.
🟡 I’ll say, I wanted maybe a few more conversations between the two of them… because that was a LOT of smut to digest and i’m not 100% sold on why they love each other but toxicity being what it is, who cares, imperio your girl Draco, I’m here to support you in any way you need! 🪩
❇️ About 70% in, I found out this long ass book had a sequel and let me tell you, I was FURIOUS! But then I realized… this isn’t such a bad thing. I’m accustomed to the roller coaster now. All I want is to see Draco become a war criminal to get his girl back and that wouldn’t have been possible in the little time we had remaining. I might have liked to have known about the sequel beforehand but by now, I’m good and well on the bandwagon, it’s almost a god send that I get a whole other book as toxic as this one 😅
❇️ Honorable mention for Zabini in this story, he was barely there but his character gave me the feels. Good little friend he was even when Draco was but a gigantic asshole
❇️ I also liked most of the other characters honestly. They weren’t written as typically as usual, Pansy was there but not screeching every other page. Luna was her strange quiet self and the author really showed her dreamlike nature. Ginny was a good friend without being obnoxious. Neville had one scene (maybe two?) but he was very Neville like… and Moaning Myrtleeeee 🥹🚽 I loved that she got some screen time
❌ Ron, that’s all i’ve got to say. Annoying as ever, almost reasonable even… except i’m on Draco’s side so I’m hoping he gets his nose broken in the sequel 😮💨
❇️ The writing was also without fault, flowed right from the page to my brain without any hiccups. We had some prime banter between Draco and Hermion. The Veritaserum scene = me swooning
In summary, I fucking loved this book even when I hated it. Sure, the plot was just about how many times Draco could get under Hermione’s skirt, but the slow unraveling of Draco’s possessive nature (read insanity, close at least), the filthy talk (which started off making me cringe and ended up as prime spank bank material), the toxic dependency between Hermione and Draco… it all breathed life into me! 🖤🗡️
Sure, it won’t be for many people, but boy, was it an experience for me, it definitely expanded my repertoire for depravity anyways!

This was a first for me… for what it’s worth the plot and attention to detail is spot on *chefs kiss* 😘🤏
Based around Harry Potter ⚡️ scenes from the movies with extra details from the book 📖
Not a personal fav as far as storyline, however the spice was sPiCeY🥵 🌶️
If you’re looking for a simple and spicy Draco & Hermione fanfic look no further
Wattpad energy, big time.
~Highlights~
"But… you hate me," She breathed out.
"Loathe you," Malfoy said simply. "But that doesn't mean that you aren't fucking adorable." He licked his lips. "And adorably fuckable."
"Ask me," he breathed out against her lips.
"What?" Hermione asked.
"Ask me for it. I want to hear you say you want me."
He brought his fingers up to his mouth and stuck them in, sucking on them before grinning. "Sweet."
"Next time, I'm going to fuck that sweet little cunt of yours until you're screaming my name."
"You even think about replacing me and I'll tie you to my bed and keep you there. You belong to me, Sweetheart, don't forget that."
"I know I said I was going to fuck that sweet cunt of yours," he brushed his fingers over her cheek. "And I will, but first it looks like I need to teach that smart mouth of yours who it belongs to."
Malfoy leaned down and pulled her up against him. "Oh I'm not going to stop. Not until I'm finished with you. You're mine, Granger," he whispered darkly into her ear. "Now scream for me."
"You know, it's kind of cheating. When I tell you not to wear knickers so you wear jeans instead. If you'd worn a skirt I would have fingered you while we were on my broom."
“Spread your thighs a little wider and I'll show you how sweet I can be. I'll even let you lick it off my lips when I'm done."

єдина настільки вартісна і реальна історія страшно-пекрасногокохання для мене, ненависть і пристрасть у яку вірю, яка не викликає липких сумнівів і умовностей.
те, як це вписано в канон (наскільки я пам'ятаю канон), наскільки свіжо і захопливо розгортаються події і як глибоко прописане знайомство з персонажами.
те, як ми залазим їм під шкіру, в їхній мозок і серце. так, моментами динаміки майже не було, ми просто були у репетативних думках драко і герміони, де знову і знову були пристрасть, самообман, пошуки себе, шаленство, зрада.
незвично було читати про таку покірну і добру грейнджер, інколи її лояльність (і зовсім не притаманна їй тупість) перемогала самоповагу — мігус вайб. але під кінець ніби зібралась.
драко тут справжній мааааайже до кінця злодій. це не звично і це цікаво, бо драма не надумана, він буквально вбивця-ворог і це величезна частина його сутності. місцями він бридкий, невиправдано жорстокий і просто сраний довбень, але коли шестерні починають рух ...ооооо — нарешті бачим проблиск в очах.
опису секс сцен виділене окреме місце в моєму сердечку. вони просто ідеальні. кожна. ну остання це 🫀
я затуляла рот руками, фиркала, посміхілась, сміялась вголос, червоніла, вимикала і відклада телефон, щоб охолонути. уся монотонність-нудність варта цих спалахів.
ps дякую за влучні і незаїдждені описи їхніх дощово-хмарних і каштаново-карамельні очей
це кохання
pps фінал... ні, не розтрощив мене, тут було ясно, але знову перетим межі: біль, війна, смерть
як вигада історія всередині вигадого всесвіту може відчуватись так безусмнівно реально

minha primeira fanfic dramione e a partir do momento em que o draco perguntou para a hermione "quem a fez chorar" minha romione stan morreu tão rápido que até hoje estou de luto.
acompanha os momentos secretos deles foram uma experiência! principalmente com as personalidades opostas da garota de ouro da grifinória e o príncipe cruel da sonserina 🆘️
e mesmo assim eles deram tão certo juntos.. foi tão lindo ver que pro draco sempre foi a hermione mesmo antes de ele realmente terem algo e que por trás de toda implicância com ela na verdade tinha muito interesse reprimido.
amei muito a gatinha grifinória, ela aos olhos do draco então a forma como ele descreve os cachos caramelos, grandes olhos de chocolate derretido e sorriso doce.. ele meio que sempre esteve caidinho por ela, príncipe!
eu não esperava que iria amar tanto o draco mesmo ele sendo literalmente assim 👉🏽 devil works hard but draco malfoy work harder! ele roubou meu coração.. eu amo tanto o jeito brincalhão dele mesmo que viva em contraste com seu jeito cruel, eu me divertia tanto nas narrações dele, a cabeça dele devia ser estudada! ele quebrando a mão do cormac porque tocou na mão da hermione MENINO DOENTE AMO ELE, ele é o #1 drama king e delulu boy do mundo acredita fielmente nas coisas que cria na cabeça me diverti, o amo muito esse menino é uma peste mas é tão querido não poderia não ama-lo.
estarei fazendo castigo de silêncio com a luisa até a continuação ser lançada, sim!

DNF at Chapter 18, which is ~66%
I don't usually rate or acknowledge books I don't finish because if I abandon a book, it's usually very early on that I've realized it's just not the right fit for me. Since I made it more than halfway through this one, I figured it was enough for a rating. I DNF'd this because it started to get to be a bit too much. I wasn't enjoying it.
I’m drawn to fics in which the characters still seem very much like the characters in the canon series — or the changes at least make sense. The same goes for the material. I am more easily won over by fanfic plots that seem to complement the canon or diverge in a way that makes sense. This seemed more like a jealous-possessive romance into which the writer randomly decided to insert school-age Harry Potter characters.
The characters weren’t entirely unrecognizable, but moments where Draco would call Hermione pet/kitten/sweetheart really pulled me out of the story. It didn’t make sense for those words to ever come out of Draco’s mouth. Especially “kitten” and “pet.” Seriously, what is that about?? Another thing I could have done without: the constant and cringey use of “Good Godric” and “Sweet Salazar” as interjections. Also, these were young teens … who were having a lot of sex. A lot of toxic and hardcore sex. Um. Why? Please no.
Verdict
A fairly quick read that is heavy on the smut, though it is very questionable when it comes to plot/character actions making sense. It reminded me of the film “After,” but smutty. The 3-star rating is lenient, but I can't bring myself to be too harsh with fanfics.

Definitely 5 ⭐️ from me. Someone recommended me this story and honestly, I'm so grateful for it. I loved every part of it. Typical enemies-to-lovers fic, but mix it with a lot of spice and steamy smuts. I'm a big fan of 6th-year stories and also 8th-year stories, so I was really curious about this fic because it gets a lot of hype on recs groups and also on Tiktok. While I was reading this story, sometimes I wanted to scream, cry or punch Draco in the face.
He's totally possessive and maybe a little bit obsessive, and also don't forget that he's toxic too in this story. Hermione's submissiveness was very out of character, but at the same time, I enjoyed and loved it. (I'm also that typical girl who needs to be in control everywhere, but damn, in the bed, I want to be the one who's not in control..yes, I'm a bottom too, smh).
There was: Ron bashing (honestly, he bashes himself), veryyyy good smut scenes, toxic relationship, and emotional damage (for me at least). Oh, I hated Lavender so much in this one, I just wanted to hit her sometimes, ugh, she's annoying.
I'll definitely continue this with the sequel. Definitely worth to read. Maybe I have my new fav story.

There was: Ron bashing (honestly, he bashes himself), veryyyy good smut scenes, toxic relationship, and emotional damage (for me at least). Oh, I hated Lavender so much in this one, I just wanted to hit her sometimes, ugh, she's annoying.
I'll definitely continue this with the sequel. Definitely worth to read. Maybe I have my new fav story.
