Content warnings:
This is the author's first book. Due to external and personal reasons, writing was interrupted twice. Although it is complete, if you click in, you'll find:
1. An uneven overall plot, with the villain's foreshadowing not fully resolved
2. An unclear main storyline
3. The leads don't confirm their relationship until fourth year, and their romance gets little page time
4. This book is an incomplete, technically inexperienced exploration of an ordinary person's youth and difficult future.
Summary:
Doreen was trash that people had thrown away. She lived in a junkyard, and her last remaining family member abandoned her during a bout of accidental magic. Just as she gave up on surviving amid the flames, magic appeared.
This is the story of a cautious witch growing stronger. Along the way, she meets someone she finds very annoying: George Weasley.
The first time she throws a punch in the wizarding world, the first time she speaks an Unbreakable Vow, the first time she reveals her Boggart, Doreen leaves disappointed and gives up fighting with George.
But then he goes and does something stupid, trying to take her hand.
It's baffling. As George Weasley is called by her gaze and voice again and again, and his name becomes one of a kind, even if he's her number one enemy, he can no longer remain indifferent. She dislikes him, calls out to him, sees him. It all makes perfect sense.
It's rare to see this kind of gentle writing style nowadays, so after reading the early 20 chapters, I decided that it deserves to be read by more people. I hope the next plot will always be online. I like the delicate, sensitive and fragile psychological description of the young Doreen very much. The young George is also very cute in his awkwardness. Doreen's gloomy childhood needs many little suns around her to heal. Maybe this is why the CP chose George Weasley.
It is not a cool novel. It focuses on the daily life and frustrations and hardships experienced by the protagonist. The original plot accounts for a small proportion, the time of the event has also been changed, and almost only key nodes appear. The protagonist is a very ordinary person, not strong or smart, and has the shortcomings of ordinary people. She is a sensitive girl who thinks a lot and cares a lot. So you will make mistakes and get frustrated. There is a little villain who will occasionally come out and jump around after being defeated, like an annoying little flying insect. Although it's a bit late to officially be together, it's still different after falling in love. The daily interactions with friends are also very real, such as quarreling and having a cold war but then making up, or feeling sad that a friend has a closer friend. I am personally not satisfied with the handling of Barty Jr. His role is only worthy of a sentence (obviously he has more personal roles than Voldemort), and I personally think that cosplayers should be dedicated to every detail, but it may be that something that is not within the scope of cosplay has been exposed.
The early stage of the heroine's character is like a fire that never goes out, with the power to destroy the world. The more you get in the future, the more afraid you will be of losing it. Instead, you will become awkward and care about what others think. Fortunately, the heroine has been growing. Maybe she will never be able to accept the loss, but she will no longer be trapped in the same place. Looking at the troubles that the heroine got into in the early stage, I directly hallucinated that I was a child. Fortunately, the heroine still knows how to ask adults for help. She really has the recklessness of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. How can a person get into such a big disaster? 🤦 The heroine's uneasiness and panic are all portrayed very delicately. The relationship between the heroine and Amelia is also very good, and the emotional line with George has a unique flavor. Maybe it's because I wasn't focused, but I felt that many of the plots were vague and not very specific. The author is already very good lyrically, but the narrative can be improved.
I think this book is a very good book. The writing is very delicate and gentle. It is not only about love but also a book about growth. It uses the HP world as the background to write the story of the heroine's tenacity and growth. I think the heroine's background is tenacity, courage, and unyielding. Although she will be frightened when facing new things, she will be expecting and overwhelmed at the beginning of making friends, and will make some small mistakes. She will also be grateful for the kindness of others, and will lose herself because she attaches too much importance to friendship. But in the end, she will face herself bravely, admit her mistakes, and grow up bravely. This is the commendable thing about this book. It's not a cool novel, but a story about growing up. I think it's very touching and relevant to life. I think this book resonates because many people over-emphasize friendship and lose themselves when it comes to friendship. The heroine gives us one of the solutions.
The words have a sense of unreality, especially at the end of the first grade, which conveys the chaotic spirit and emotions through words. It was so delicate that it reminded me of some things from the past. Although a little sad, it is undeniable that it is indeed a very good book.
Super pretty! The teacher's writing is so delicate that it makes you want to cry! I really like the description of the heroine's emotions in the article. Sometimes people just have a lot of awkward and inexplicable thoughts that they dare not say (ᐡ ɞ̴̶̷ . ɞ̴̶̷ ᐡ). After reading this, I feel warm in my heart.
