Summary
Harry wasn’t expecting to wake up one day not entirely human, but the universe had always taken great pleasure in throwing him to the wolves. And when a certain someone discovered him in a rather…awkward predicament, he realised just how literal that statement truly was.

A Strange Twist of Fate by shinigami714
I read this after a heartbreaking story on Draco’s birthday. Such a great soul cleanser!! Im so happy this beautiful story ended Draco’s birthday for me. Loved the whole fairy inheritance of Harry and Draco’s forest. Love me some soft Harry and he’s so adorable and sweet. Love a ruggedly gorgeous Draco who’s so captivated by Harry and doesnt hide it. I actually imagined the hobbit house as described, before i saw in author’s profile the other The Hobbit stories written. So great!!

Or: An annual birthday party that turns to a yearly school reunion. Hermione and Pansy are party planners, Ron is an excellent baker, and everyone tries their best to attend a birthday party just to see each other.

Fine-Fractured Halo by Rainjuly
Oh nooooooo i read this at the wrong time!! Today’s Draco’s birthday and i thought i was in for a great love story —- or rather great happy ending. But i have tears and snot and a broken heart. 😭😭😭🫠🫠🫠💔💔💔 my chest is so heavy right now.
Aside from that, i loved the ambiance of this wonderful melancholic story. I havent watched the One Day movie. But i thought this story had similar feels of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Never Let Me Go. The day being Harry’s birthday was so meaningful and painful over time because of Draco’s wanderlust. I knew something was gonna happen unpleasant after Harry’s comment about his work. It just didnt match with Draco’s passion. But i was holding on to the hope that some day Draco will reach a point of completion in his research or something that would make him stay in UK and be with Harry finally. And of course the annual light spheres he sends to Harry as a sign of his affection for Harry. There were a lot of moments where it was so frustrating because Harry wasnt as open and expressive of his feelings to Draco. And the same could be said of Draco.
I thought the beach moment was beautiful and a great potential for a turning point of their relationship but still Draco left him before morning. And it hurt so much!! And the waiting!! And the heartbreak from Pansy’s letter and photo. And then Draco is just as a mess as Harry. And he’s been collecting all his paintings!! That hurt too!! All the implications of it. And now im also a mess. 🫠🫠🫠😭😭😭
Angst is def angsting.
Such a beautiful poetic story. 🫶 -

Through The Fire by SongAngel
A million kudosssssss!!! Kudossssss!!! Enjoyed this so much!!! Loved how McGonagall was so assertive and not just a follower of whatever Dumbledore decides. Loved how she really took Harry away from the dursleys! I also feral about Remus taking care of Harry because he was the only one left of his friend group. (Like in The secret language of plants)!!!!! Remus and Harry is just family!!!!!
And childhood friends with Draco! And sweet Narcissa!! I loved that part so much!!! They were so sweet and adorable together!! I loved that it was still Draco who got to be Harry’s first friend like they shouldve been. And then next was Ron without any complications.Of course growing up with 2 loving patents will make Harry having a different mindset and personality. He didnt have those prejudices and discriminations against others. So him really being in Slytherin totally makes sense. And that was such a good setup of befriending others in different houses.
The Hogwarts adventure was so fun reading with this kind of setup, with this Harry’s upbringing. Adults are present to help out the students in times of trouble!!! Because they really should. And students really should ask for help!!!! Loved the differences that made and i truly enjoyed it!!
Sirius being acquitted that fast was so refreshing!! Loved wolfstar as ever!! And Sirius, even after Azkaban, being so funny and his young self was lovely and hilarious!!
Loved how draco and harry’s friendship evolved over time. It felt so natural. Loved that it was really age appropriate i would think. 😅 they are so sweet!! And the way the adults just watch out for them and tease them occasionally was also so lovely and very domestic. Felt all the love around them whenever they’re together!!
The Wolf Pack was an insanely great idea!! Enjoyed reading those parts!
I also loved how the writing was so refreshing! Such an easy read i just devoured it!! Loved that there was great pacing and the feels i think were balanced. At some parts, i was really focused reading and then there are lines that would just make me laugh out loud. It was great!! Funny characters!! Great lines!! And of course during the war, jokes at the expense of voldy were so hilarious!! That nothing underneath the robes and chilly part by Luna was INSANEEEEE!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Truly enjoyed this epic story!! Lovely characters!! One of the sweetest family dynamics ive seen. I had such a great time spending it with them. 🥰🥰

Summary
The reality of it settles over Draco like a bucket of freezing cold water. Harry has been kept in that tower his whole life, living a half life so the man he calls a father never dies. And the only twisted, fucked up love he’s ever known is from the man who did this to him.
And yet there Harry is, smiling, bright as gold.
Or:
Once upon a time, a golden prince fell in love with a thief.
(Tangled AU)

an eclipse of the sun by scarlet_moons
THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!!!! I love Tangled!! And drarry x Tangled crossover was just a brilliant idea!! Im so happy to read this story! Devoured this today finally! Ive had this on my tbr for a long time. Im glad it kept coming up in recommendations on Reddit. I truly enjoyed how this story explored the life Harry would have had if he were kidnapped by Voldy a la Rapunzel. But of course he also would have similar trauma like he did with the Dursleys.
It was really interesting to see the parallels and assigning similar HP characters to that of the Tangled universe. Loved reptile companion Nagini and sassy Buckbeak! And how the Gryffindors interacted with Drarry since they werent classmates before! Loved Luna with her flowers!
Draco was the perfect Flynn rider! At first i thought since Draco is the blonde one, he wouldve been the lost prince. But his backstory was excellent! And his journey to Harry and their adventures were so thoughtful and entertaining!! Loved every minute of it!! Oh how i love the annual patronuses! Loved how evoked similar heartwarming feelings as the movie!! And that KISS!!!! I am in love!!!! 💗💗💗💗🥰🥰🥰🥰 Def instant fave!! Wonderful brilliant story!!
