3.5. A bit too repetitive from canon (literal paragraphs copied). I feel like it’s really hard to find good HP/Sherlock crossover and this was one of the best. All the plot of adding mobile phones to the magical world is fun!

This is a long read (516K words!), since it covers all Harry's years at Hogwarts up through Goblet of Fire, but worth it, though the ending is still only partial and a bit downbeat.
There's plenty of magical action and more than a little humor, but it also addresses some serious issues such as PTSD and prejudice.
I like how both adults and young characters are well-portrayed, and of course seeing logical deduction applied to the magical world makes for some interesting changes.
There are still-uncorrected typos and others errors, but not enough to impede enjoyment.

My favorite thing from this fic is you could still put canon's little details here and there even though it has different plot

Turns out I put it aside for so long I’m DNFing this. I made it to page 302 of 2014 (in 90×34 lynx), which is partway into chapter 16 of 82. If it ever gets better won’t matter now, this is so overrated and has been so tedious it’s hard to read. I was hoping for nice little details other reviewers spoke of, but… *shrug*
