No idea what to make of this fanfic. A couple of things off hand:

1, the banter between Harry and Hermione felt very Gilmore girl like. Sorta quick, fast paced unrealistic talking.

2, the portrayal of Draco was very on point to me. Loved how he was written

3, the ending felt abrupt and unfinished

4, timeline went fast with little said as if the reader should just know thar the progress made between the two of them was all well and good.

5, fade to black, implied sex scenes. Disappointing for me but others may appreciate that.

I LOVE books that fully flesh out Harry and Hermione's relationship, I feel like this was really realistic. Harry is the absolute cutest, I love him 🫶 I hope this doesn't blow up, I want them to stay best friends. Draco and Hermione are already so domestic and cute I love it sm. They're so awkward, it's endearing. Also their absolutely flat deadpan sarcasm makes me giggle. I've never read a Draco characterization where he is a germaphobe and low level OCD, very interesting. Omg it ended with a cliffhanger 😭 yet it was closure enough somehow

Dramione
So it seems that Hermione and Harry were both cheated on by a Weasley, and they're comiserating over it.
The writing is a little jolty at times, but the banter is decent.
I just don't think I'm interested. Her and Harry trying to figure out if they work? 31%, and I've seen 2 minutes of Draco. And they are almost too easy? Not for me I guess.

3.5! This was actually better than I expected! Short, sweet, with still a lot of plot. The ending left everything to be desired, unfortunately. It could have been a longer last chapter and still been great. Like I wanted to know if Narcissa heard everything while she was in a coma.

Dramione. Rated Teen. Narcissa is ill, so Draco.is at St. Mungos, and Luna is ill so Hermione is there too. Mutual Pining. Mystery Solving. Curses. Open Ending

I loved the banter (especially the coffee scene - SO funny), but I wasn‘t at all into the HP/GH-part of the story. The ending felt a bit rushed.
