expecto patronum

there used to be a hpff recommendation blog somewhere on tumblr, but i can't find it, so i thought i'd take the lead. my name is milly and i love hpff, so i'm going to share a few of my favourite stories with tumblr. beware of dramione bashing. any recommendations of your own can go straight in my ask and i'll take a look!

some kind of beauty by celestie

this story deserves it's dobby. it's incredible. the prose and the style and the characters are all beautifully created. rose is just stunning - i love how the story addresses the weasley family, it's a real slice of life and it's all so real and lovely. well done.

game theory by gubraithianfire

this is just very good. it's got great prose, and i love the way the author has built her characters. if by the time you finished reading it you don't love clara, then i have no hope for you. the style is very fresh, very modern, and i really like it. lily's perfect as clara's matchmaking rival, and... it's just really good, alright?

sensible by margravine 

i love this little story! a lot of other fics have rose as the super-crazed ambitious red-haired head girl who always has her father's temper and her mother's brains and always sleeps with scorpius and gets pregnant... but i like this 'sensible' version of her. this story made me fall in love with the idea of rose and teddy as well.

a very sweet story, definitely worth a read!

partners in crime by violet gryfindor

i've been pretty much stalking violet gryfindor's page for a while now. her writing style is awesome, and i really admire the way she can switch genres and characters and styles so easily and so effortlessly. i know people have their favourite genre, or their favourite character, but because her author page is so wide and varied, it's difficult to find hers.

i love the characterisation of albus and scorpius in this story. scorpius is the pretty boy, the 'greenie', whereas albus (thinks he) is the hardened auror. i love the parallels to sherlock holmes and john watson. it's really good! the film noir tone is perfect - the author's got the inner monologue spot on. check it out!
