Oh hell no, who the eff wants to read a fanfic where one of them cheats?? I’m so angry rn 😤

[Lyssa · Rating 2 out of 5]

Absolutely hated the cheating. Would have skipped if I’d known it was there. The premise was fun, but in the end ruined by adultry.

[Chae (authentichomebooking) · Rating 3 out of 5]

I think I have the same complaint as everyone else here, Draco got the shit end of the stick. Still obsessed with lovesbitca8 though

tw : bad ending
hermione here was one little jerk & that rating’s only cause i pretended the last 30% didnt happen

”Well, regardless” – he waved his hand like he was resetting the air – “I have a few new techniques to try.”
Granger swallowed, and tried to concentrate on her notes. “I never said you could have a trial and error period.” She looked up at him and brushed her hair behind her ear. “In fact, I remember you saying you’d ‘get it right the first time.’”
He blinked at her. “You’re joking.”
She raised a brow at him. “You don’t remember saying that?”
He narrowed his eyes. “I’m offering you statistical research, data analysis, trial and error, and – most importantly – a willing partner! It should be your wet dream! How are you not creaming your knickers right now, Granger!”

Draco watched the anger leave her, and missed it dearly.
“Would you go back to him. Once you’ve ‘figured it out?’” Draco spit the last part. He would put in all the hard work so that Weasley could reap the rewards?
“No,” Granger said. She looked at him with a calm in her eyes. It calmed him.

nah thats cute ngl

“It’s alright, Granger. It’s a maragon, not a sprint, remember?”
She grinned, and pressed her lips together to keep from laughing. “A marathon, Malfoy.” Draco smiled.
“Well, sweetheart?” he asked.

love seeing them being actual bearable teenagers

“I’m going to tie you up, blindfold and gag you one day,” he hissed. Not seductive at all. Just factual.
“Funny,” she said, slipping one finger inside of herself. “I was just thinking the same thing about you.”

“Granger, if you keep talking, I’m going to come, and if I come, we won’t get to try any of your positions from the list –“
“I don’t care, Malfoy, I just want you to go faster.” Her voice was low and breathy.
Draco rubbed his free hand down his face, resisting the urge to snap his hips forward. He heard her shifting on the couch again, and he started counting the number of books he had to purchase for this school year.
Something touched his knees and he snapped his eyes open to find Hermione Granger kneeling in front of him, naked and licking her lips.
“What are you doing?! GO BACK TO YOUR COUCH!” He sat forward, pushing her hands off his knees and ignoring his cock bouncing at the sight.

nah this has crack comedy in it

“It surprises me when you’re… assertive. That’s all.”
“Did you expect me to lie still on my back while you ravished me?” she quipped, raising a brow at him.
“No, no. Of course not,” he said. “I just…” He had to look away from her. “It excites me. When you’re assertive.” He could feel the heat creeping up his cheeks. “And then I can’t concentrate on you. And that’s what frustrates me.”

the obvious equal ish power display, its quite refreshing

“You know I don’t offer extra credit, Mr. Malfoy.” She looked at him with mock-pity, and stood from the desk, moving around it, and pretending to tidy it.
“There must be something I can do,” he said.
She did smile then, before quickly shaking her head. “You’re dismissed, Mr. Malfoy.” She looked up at him. “You had so much potential.”
He grinned at the desk when she looked away, tutting to herself. She was going to make him work for it, wasn’t she?
He stood from the desk in front, and came around to the side of the professor’s desk. “Please let me turn in the essay, Professor. Please give me a chance.” He licked his lips, as she stared up him. “You’re the best teacher Hogwarts has to offer. You’re brilliant. And beautiful –”
“That’s highly inappropriate, Mr. Malfoy.” She returned to cleaning up paperwork.
Merlin’s Balls, Granger! He rolled his eyes, trying to look for a way in.
“But it’s the truth,” he whined. “Half the reason I can’t concentrate in class is because of you.” He heard himself edging closer to the truth than he’d like. “I can’t sleep. I lay awake at night thinking of your tits, thinking of your legs.” He stepped closer to the desk and let his fingers trail across her hand. “Thinking of tasting you. Thinking of fucking you on this desk.”
She pulled her hand from his, blush high on her cheeks. “Mr. Malfoy. While I appreciate your… appreciation,” she said, blinking. “It’s highly inappropriate—“
Fuck, it was like she had no idea how these fantasies work. Next time, he’d be the Professor. Let her be the eager student. Punish her for getting a question wrong.
He watched her berate him, talking about school ethics and student behavior. When she was done, he said, “So there’s nothing I can do to improve my grade?”
“No, Mr. Malfoy, I’m sorry.” She shook her head at him.
“Damnit, Granger! The fuck is wrong with you!?”
She gasped. “That’s Professor Granger, to you!”
He rolled his eyes and grabbed the back of her head, dragging her lips to his. He sucked on her bottom lip, and she pushed at his chest.
“Mr. Malfoy! What are you doing!?”
“My extra credit assignment.” He smirked at her.
She had a look of fake outrage on her face. “I don’t offer extra credit!”
“Yeah, yeah, I heard.”

i swear this is the first time i laughed out loud in days n its on a smut scene

i love how they still let their brain have a piece and werent overly controlled by the carnal urges. its not often i find myself not dozing off to a sex scene. i just love malfoy’s pov in this one

this next scene’s pretty long. i just thought it was cute

He leaned down to her ear and whispered, "Strip. And get on the bed."
His first command over her. He felt it go straight to his cock. He walked away from her, trying to decide if he wanted to use the vibrator before or after the handcuffs—
“Uh..." she said. "Why don't you strip and get on the bed."
Draco paused. He turned from where he stood near the table. He blinked at her. "What?"
She narrowed her eyes. "You do know that I am the Dom, right?"
He waited for her to laugh, and tell him she was joking, and begin to take her clothes off.
It didn't happen.
“No... I'm the Dom," he tried.
Now she laughed. "What makes you think you're the Dom?" Gleeful eyes ran over his body. "You're a Switch, at best.”

[…]

“Always planning. So controlled, Draco."
His back hit the bedpost. "Yes, which is why I had thought that I would do best in the Dominant role." Her hands drifted up to his chest and ran a pattern down his stomach.
“Actually, it's why you might need the submission." Her fingers found his belt buckle, and started tugging. "I can give you what you need, Draco." Her tongue flicked out to wet her lips.
He knew his jaw was open but he couldn't find the brain function to close it. Her hand brushed against his cock through his trousers, and he jumped.
“But— but," he pleaded. "I'm supposed to be giving you what you need!”
“Maybe this is what I need," she whispered into his neck. She licked a path from his ear to his collarbone as her fingers finished with the last of his buttons.
“That doesn't... This - this," he stammered. She dipped into his trousers and pulled him out, running her thumb across his head. "Hey!" He pushed her off of him, stepping to the side and out of her reach. "Where's our healthy conversation!?" he shrieked her words back at her.
She covered her smile with her hand. "Alright," she said. "What do you want to talk about?"He tucked himself back in his trunks, and ran a hand through his hair. He turned around and caught his breath, then spun to her. He pointed a finger at her.
“You need to orgasm. Not me!"
“I don't see how those two things are mutually exclusive," she shrugged, and he could feel the superiority rolling off of her. Just because she'd successfully tied someone up before. Well, la-dee-fucking-dah.
“We need to get you out of your head, Granger." He cracked his neck. "I thought that submission, and letting you have a chance to lose control for bit might be “a good tactic."
“Yes," she said. "I'd agree with that."
“You would?" He narrowed his eyes at her. She was spinning his head around today.
“But that doesn't mean you'd make a good Dom, Draco." She said it gently. Like it may hurt him. Well, fuck that.
“What makes you think I'd be a good Submissive?!" He threw his hands out wide.
“You already do everything I say in bed," she replied simply. She stepped toward him and lowered her voice into a familiar breathy place. "'Draco, please. More. Faster, Draco.'
He scowled at her. "Well... that's just polite."
She came to stand in front of him again, and he was aware that his trousers still hung open. "The basics of Dominance and Submission aren't about control. They're about pleasure." She pressed her body against his, her breasts pushing into his chest and her hands resting on his hipbones. "It would please me to dominate you, Draco."
He shivered.Her eyes were dark as she stepped away and said, "But if you're uncomfortable with it, we can try something else."
He bit his lip and looked over at his small assortment of toys for the night. "Will you let me be the Dom one day?" he pouted.
“Yes," she said. "But only if you're very good.”

yeah that was the last time i had a good time

coz dude the last 30% literally ruined my day

i hated the whole blaise thing. i thought it was pushing way too far & i didnt like that they didnt immediately be monogamous w each other (at that part). esp since we’re following draco’s pov the whole time, i got as insecure as draco in terms of hermione. she just lay there and be a useless fuck accepting blaise touching her?????

but when she slept w/ fuckin ron.



i lost it. wtf exactly was the point of that?? it was going good enough (never liked this hermione as much as im used to, but i was holding onto that hope), but then that shit happened n i kinda hated her by the end

worth the read? still prolly is if im bein honest. just stop by 70ish% n write ur own ending (draco was the pure one here)

[Melinda | melloreads · Rating 3 out of 5]

This would have been 5 stars if it weren’t for the cheating. I wouldn’t have read it if I’d realized the “infidelity” tag meant either Draco or Hermione would be doing the cheating in their own relationship, but that’s my own fault. Unfortunately it ruined the entire story for me

[Chelsi · Rating 1 out of 5]

1.25 stars. Decent smut, but even that got boring and repetitive. This was so OOC, I just couldn’t get behind it. It felt like an angsty story about two random people. And between the coercive threesome scene, the uncomfy Dom!Hermione scene, and the infidelity (because yes it definitely was), I was not a fan. I know they are young and feelings can be just so scary, but when someone looks you in the eye and says they only want to be with you, even if they mean strictly sexually, and you agree, you don’t sleep with your ex a week later!! Not unless you’re a shitty person 🤷🏻‍♀️. Also, Blaise was super gross here. If you know your best friend has feelings for a girl and you think she might reciprocate them, why THE FUCK would you start sleeping with her???? That’s disgusting and warped. I don’t care if Hermione is experienced or sexually adventurous, but the way her exploits were portrayed and discussed in this story was extremely off putting. The way everyone talked about her and the other women in the story was disrespectful as fuck (talking about how they missed a dead girl for her tits, for one). Just a big no from me.

[She Reads So Much · Rating 1 out of 5]

The cheating was so out of place that it made my already dwindling patience die. Absolutely not.

[Rachel B. · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ok this fic was amazing. After the auction, 280 pages of the juiciest hottest smut was so enjoyable. Literally 10/10 spice rating. There is not a single page that doesn’t involve 🍆💦 I love watching Draco fall so madly first and I love how hermoine is slightly austistic about emotions.

I don’t know why everyone was freaking out about the Ron cheating thing. It doesn’t detract from the story or romance at all and actually at least provides SOME plot.

Also omg I laughed out loud so hard every time Malfoy called David Davidson some other M name. That was just so hilarious I can’t, I loved that heavy dose of comedy.

[ilcm · Rating 3 out of 5]

Solid 4.5 from beginning up to last chapter. Sorry but infidelity ruined it and was so unfair to sweet Draco

[Faith · Rating 1 out of 5]

WTF WAS THE CHEATING! It made no sense plot wise and I hated the book after that. I begrudgingly finished the book but hated hermione the rest of it. Draco deserved better!

[Courtney · Rating 1 out of 5]

The ending ruined this fic for me. No. Just NO!

[Gloria Mundi · Rating 2 out of 5]

I finished it but the cheating was a massive no for me. Also, I don’t think that’s how demi-sexuality works.

[Kai · Rating 3 out of 5]

5 star smut, two stars removed for cheating plot line :///

[Kelly (AndKellyReads)]

I liked this!! Teen angst and drama, 85% steam, and a few emotional moments??? Sign me up.

Also Draco was adorable in this one he tried so god damn hard 😭

[viola · Rating 3 out of 5]

The almost threesome and cheating ruined it for me. I was going to give this a 5 stars.

[RachelReadsandSings · Rating 2 out of 5]

Oof. This was not it. Draco deserved better 😭

Lovesbitca8, who hurt you? And why did you have to hurt us as well? I just wanna talk 😭😭😭

[Simona · Rating 4 out of 5]

porn with (little) plot.
but i'm lost in my dramione fic era - so jep I read everything at this point. 😁

3.89⭐️

I actually liked this for the most part! Hermione was a lot more liberated in this one and Draco more insecure I’d say. A lot a lot a lot of sexy time and not too bad 😏. But did get a little monotonous at times. But still a Dramione and I love them always so 😍

[Athena]

This was a cute story with a wacky main plot but I enjoyed it so much because when do I not enjoy a Dramione? LovesBitca8 makes reading fanfic too good

First book of the year is actually a dramione fanfic! And with cheating, wuhu! /s

So.... I love me some toxic relationships but when I'm going into a book without knowing that there's going to be cheating (which... I don't even accept in toxic relationships so I don't know why I mentioned them) I definitely feel... Well, cheated! However, I wasn't super put off by their ending because their relationship spelled disaster from the start, this is not like a long lasting romance couple but rather two 18 year old just getting it on.

As for the smut, I loved it! So fun although after a while it gets so repetitive that it loses the spark for a while. I also didn't enjoy how Draco was led around by his dick. I much prefer the Draco that's coldly Calculating and this one felt so... Ridiculous.

[Danielle · Rating 3 out of 5]

Last few chapters were not my cup of tea.

--
5 star = Delivered more than I expected; will read again, think about often, probably read fanfiction, and recommend widely
4 star= Delivered exactly what I expected; will read again at some point, will recommend with a hedge of some kind ("It's... cute! It's... monster romance!")
3 star= This was fine. I wouldn't read it again. Might recommend based on if a friend likes similar books.
2 star= It was a slog to finish this but I felt like I had to. A sub-par execution of the story
1 star= I actively disliked the plot, the characters, and will be donating the book ASAP

[Meena ❤️ · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is the only time I have ever gave a Dramione story a 2 🌟. The book was good but as soon as the cheating came along I just felt my vibe die out. I hated it the way it was so last minute and it just confused the shit out of me. The fact we didn’t get any context after no groveling nothing? And it seemed so unrealistic from the character who cheated. I get it’s the authors book and she can write it how she wants but hermione has this vision that everyone sees her as and she definitely doesn’t look like someone who struggles with talking about her feelings, being unloyal, or cheating!

Every Day, a Little Death by LovBitca8

This Dramione fanfic is only eleven chapters but doesn't lack in plot or spice. LovBitca8 writes some of my favorite Dramione fics and I can't seem to get enough. If I don't read one or two after reading so many books I get stuck in a rut.

This fic was everything. The love that grew between the two and overcoming obstacles and fear of commitment and love. I definitely ate it up. If you're looking for a taste of Dramione, definitely read this.

[Kamia Solomon · Rating 5 out of 5]

The cheating was the reason I came and it wasn't even that bad! I totally understood how she would have tried again to see if she was just broken or truly found the solution - her ghosting Draco was really the problem but they are teens who miscommunicate all the time!

and that threesome would have BEEN my dream.

Blaise is always Draco's bestie doing what needs to be done

[Evie-verity · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great tension, smut and he doesnt forgive her straight away!

[Tymber · Rating 4 out of 5]

I started reading Every Day, A Little Death immediately after DMATMOOFIL because I was living on a high and needed more Simp Draco in my life. This was a totally different reading experience than that but it was good in its own right. In this AU we are back at Hogwarts for 8th year. So, it’s after the final battle and the war has been won. Now, those who wish to complete their studies are back to finish their final year. Including Draco and Hermione of course. This fic is from Draco’s POV exclusively and starts with him overhearing a conversation between Blaise, Theo, and some 7th-year (whose name he can literally never remember) talking about how good of a shag Hermione is. Apparently, Hermione is sleeping around fairly aggressively and Draco is shocked to find out that news. And then intrigued about how he can offer his services when he figures out why she’s sleeping around. Turns out Hermione Granger has never had an orgasm. So, she’s been sexually adventurous in her pursuit of her little death and Malfoy eagerly takes up the pursuit alongside her. I’m not sure there was a single page without smut on it for this one. And then the cheating situation at the end really had people torn up. I, personally, didn't hate it. I obviously didnt love it because when I imagine Dramione I want to imagine that they're so perfectly meant to be that the thought to cheat would never cross either of their minds but in this fic, I sort of get the choice. She could 100% have done a better job of having Hermione explain her feelings (she did not explain them well enough imo) but in the end, I enjoyed the journey. And the smut did get somewhat repetitive but I can’t deny that it was pretty hot for the majority of it. It was a bit weird to imagine Hermione as being quite this sexually experienced but I loved the effect that she had on Draco because of it. Anyways, this one is for fun and fun will be had. I recommend as long as a touch of infidelity won't ruin it for you.

[PrettyLittleReader · Rating 2 out of 5]

I went into Every Day, a Little Death thinking it would be a safe bet cuz I already knew the author’s reputation, the premise sounded incredibly intriguing, everyone kept mentioning how hot and spicy it was, and since it wasn’t particularly long, I thought it would be the perfect quick Dramione read on a vacation trip.
At first, I was actually enjoying it (that’s the reason for the 2 stars and not 1). It wasn’t blowing my mind and I wasn’t completely sold on either the writing or the characterization, but it was entertaining enough. I love a good porn with plot, so it was perfect, but the problem was that Draco and Hermione felt extremely OOC in a way that just didn’t work for me. They didn’t really feel like them, it was like reading two different people, and I struggled to connect with their dynamic. Still, the chemistry was kinda okay, the spicy scenes were well written, and I was willing to overlook a few things because I was curious to see where the story would go.

But for some reason… I had a weird feeling. Reader’s intuition? Idk.
So I made the best decision I could have possibly made: I checked the Goodreads reviews.

THANK. FUCKING. GOD. Thank fucking God I did it.

Because that’s when I found out about the near-threesome situation (I hate why choose, threesome, sharing ecc) and, even worse, that Hermione CHEATS on Draco.

Absolutely not. What the fuck?

I LOVE dark romance and morally questionable characters, I’m perfectly fine with murder, stalking, kidnapping, violence and all kinds of chaos. But cheating between the main couple is my absolute dealbreaker. There are very rare exceptions where I can accept it if it’s handled in a very specific context and doesn’t involve the central relationship (for example, in Hawke by Jessica Hall, where it serves a completely different narrative purpose). But cheating? Between Draco and Hermione? Never. That’s simply not something I’ll ever enjoy reading. That’s where I draw the line.
Dramione is my all-time favorite ship, and one of the reasons I love them so much is the idea that, once they choose each other, it’s them against the world. In every lifetime, in every story, in every way. Throwing infidelity into that dynamic completely ruins the romance for me.
I immediately DNF’d the fic after reading those spoilers and honestly I’m so grateful to everyone on Goodreads who mentioned it. They genuinely saved me from investing more time and getting emotionally attached, only to end up incredibly disappointed.
I’m especially surprised because I already knew and appreciated LovesBitca8’s works, so this wasn’t something I expected from one of her stories. It’s a shame because the premise had so much potential, and I was genuinely excited going in.

Oh well… onto the next Dramione. Hopefully one that lets Draco and Hermione be obsessed with each other, and ONLY each other.

[April Parker · Rating 4 out of 5]

I might drop this to a 3.5 I’m not sure… the smut was good and the story was well written but the cheating… nah fam. That was not it. And then we barely had any content after that? I also hated that her solution to “make it up to him” was just sex?? Like girl what? Do the work emotionally, in what world is sex used to make up for cheating on someone?? And the fact that draco didn’t forgive her right away but yet was incapable of not sleeping with her every five seconds? Then breaks up with her before Valentine’s Day only to start sleeping with her again a week later? So icky on his part. Like yes hermione was horrible for cheating on him but that doesn’t mean draco gets to treat her poorly right back? 🥴 idk the whole ending just fucking sucked. I wish we saw them actually building back their trust instead of just… fucking some more.

[Sofija · Rating 2 out of 5]

Hated it. I don't even know why I've finished it, tbh. Slutty Hermione is not my cup of tea and there are so many repetitive parts, sentences and words that it was super boring. The storyline is also shit and pointless. I mean if you are looking for Hogwarts porn book then by all means, go ahead. But if you are looking for storyline, character development, interesting continuation of HP, then skip this. I did give it a second star because of the few interesting parts, mostly about the name of the guy nobody could remember, but that was it, when it comes to the quality of this book.

[heresignis]

I have very mixed feelings about this one. I knew it was gonna be veryyyy spicy, and I didn't mind at all. I liked the premises and thought it was gonna be fun - and i was right. But even the smut can get repetitive and I think this was the case and I got bored towards the end. I would still recommend it to someone looking for smutty & funny dramione, if not for the second to last chapter. Something that Hermione did pissed me off too much. I was boiling with rage bc it was absolutely unnecessary 🤷‍♀️ So honestly, I don't know what to think about this one...
