I've been reading an excellent and underrated SS/HG story by Snapesforte, called, Taking Over Me.

Here's the link to her author page at Ashwinder:

http://ashwinder.sycophanthex.com./viewuser.php?uid=573

For those of you who do not know, Snapesforte runs a wonderful site, called "Designer Potions"

it is here:

http://www.designerpotions.com/ss/

First off, I've been meaning a long time to do some serious pimpin' for this site. I think it has the best set of Snape resources you will find, and if you are serious about writing the miserable bugger, this is a place you should book mark. For instance, every quote of what he says in canon is there. There is a well worked out conjectural timeline, among other useful helpers.

This flawless attention to canon shines in "Taking Over Me" with a wonderful in character Snape and also an equally plausible Hermione. It's set in school, and I would normally shy from this, but the writer makes me believe and makes me like (given my antipathy to reading teacher student - with one or two great exceptions, this is no mean feat). There's also a wonderful sense of canon setting - with events occuring that make me feel, the only reason we never read them in canon, is because there wasn't time - and that we will read them when the next two books are issued.

Great stuff. Go read.

As a reader of "Taking Over Me" as well as "But You Alone," I can say that both of you are very talented authors. Looking forward to reading more.

Ive just finished reading taking over me, which was brilliant even though its not finished and I am now wondering as to the ending.
