Reviews for A Matter of Black and White

    I did appreciate the reference to Dover. I've been to the castle and to the tunnels below. As a fortress, it's the most impregnable I've ever seen. The day we went there was Sept. 10, 2001. The next day we were in Canterbury and heard a TV in a pub as we walked past. We went in and were shocked to see what had happened. About two minutes later we saw the first building come crashing down. It was the last day of our tour and the farewell party they gave for our group was very somber that night. We had another week planned over there visiting friends in Yorkshire so were we fortunate, we were able to get the flight we had originally booked to get back home.

    We went back to England in 2003 and visited friends in Sandwich before going to Shropshire, while we were there we walked on the White Cliffs. That day the temperature hit the 90's, the sky was clear and very blue, and the Channel looked like the Caribbean. We hit the heat wave that caused so many problems in the summer of 2003.

    Only a tiny minority of places in Britain and Western Europe have air conditioning, the only place we found it was in cars. The heat did a job on me, I was used to Yorkshire weather and when we left the states I was looking forward to nice, normal days in the 60's & 70's and cool nights. We are going there again this September, this time to the Lake District. That's north of where we were assigned in Yorkshire and in mid September they should be having autumn weather.

    Now to review this chapter, all I can say is hurry with the next one, I'm anxious to know what happens. At least what happens after she follows 'He Who I Find Most Tiresome's orders. From what you've inferred so far, I won't find the orders anymore pleasing than she will. You created a very creepy and ominous aura, that's not easy to do well.

    Intriguing, now her next step must be to go to 'He Who I Find Most Tiresome' and profess to be a loyal Deatheater. But i'm stil anxiously waiting for the romantic connect between Severus and Aurora to flare up and for them to at least share a real kiss. It's something like the wait for Bridget & Mark to finally kiss in 'Bridget Jones's Diary'. I hope the reward for the wait is as good as that was.

    I enjoyed this chapter, the humour in it lightened the tone after the last 2 chapters, I like the words 'Ordering' and 'Death Eatering', they do help to describe his busy life, as does the "stewing over how to save his sorry ass from a certain 'unbreakable Vow". The jack'o lanterns carved as likenesses of the faculty was a clever idea, I liked the way you fit the gourd/vegetable/nut to each person's personality.

    He's obviously smitten, but he can't see it yet and neither can she. For that matter, I think she is smitten too and hasn't realized it yet either. I hope it won't be much longer before things heat up between those two.

    My mind is a bit of a wreck from your continually delicious writing, so I've only got 2 words to say about the latest chapters (particularly the end of chapter 26), those being "Woo & Yay". Thank you so much for filling my day with your great work x

    I enjoyed this chapter immensely, it made me laugh, especially that sarcastic paraphrase of Kennedy: "Ask not what you can do for your students; ask what your students can do for you." I liked the talking poster of the Zauberfloten too, those guys have attitude.
    When will things start heating up between those two? I'm starting to get antsy from waiting.

    This was a very strange, but very interesting chapter; the kind that when you're reading it you won't allow anything to interrupt you. I'm not a fan of Bellatrix at all, so I can see how she could be the one to disillusion him and unwittingly force him to see what the DE's and "He Who I Find Most Tiresome' really are and what he really doesn't want to be.

    Now as for the Potions disaster, yuck! I thought it was only my cats who held vomit fests.

    I'm glad to see that she could help Tonks to cheer up some.
    I was hoping that by the end of this chapter that at least one of them would acknowledge there is an attraction between them. There has to be an attraction because there is enough chemistry there to set both of them off in anger, and that wouldn't exist if there weren't some attraction between them. The title Sex, Drugs, and Rock'n'Roll (But Not Necessisarily In That Order) led me to hope for a little more that was forthcoming. When is he at least going to kiss her? Once that happens everything else should fall into place.
