Interesting start. As I understand it, well-to-do girls did not attend boarding schools in the early 1800s, but had governesses and private tutors. Oh well, this is AU and a wizarding tale. ^_^

Ooo, I lke regency style stories. I can't wait to see Snape's method of 'persuading' Hermione's parents!

Eeeeheeehee!  A frock-coated Snape in nearly his natural setting!

 that was great! its a very good regencyesque write. well done! will look forward to more chapters. :O)

Wow! This is so interesting! I'm a massive Jane Austen fan and I think your writing is spot on. What an amazing challenge for you - I do look forward to the next chapter. (I read this on my blackberry in tiny, tiny writing!)

Excellent beginning! I can't wait for the rest.

Um... I am unbelievably psyched for this story. Literally begging you for more!

Oh, how lovely to have this fic now also posting here! I hope you don't mind if I don't re-read and write a review right now, but just want to add my rating to the masses! ;o)

Author's Response: lol!  Not at all.  It was all I could do to keep up with the reviews the first time around. :-)

Yay!  You're posting this here!  I read it elsewhere an Looooved it, but I am long overdue for a re-read.  More literary goodness from Aurette!

Oh, I like this very much.  And it's only the first chapter.  I have not had the fortune of reading this at another site so I look forward to the next chapter with great anticipation.  I enjoy reading stories in this time period.  Ready for a glorious ride!

Ooh! I read this on FFN after you posted there last spring. To be honest, Regency is not really my thing, so I have a hard time reading some of it (but I managed it on my phone while standing in lines at Universal Studios). Your writing style makes up for the Regency stuff though and it all seems to come together. I look forward to reading it again.

Oooh, I get to re read this here! 

This is going to be fun! I can hardly wait for more!

What an interesting premise.  It is so HP and yet so not, but still entirely wonderful.  I am excited to see where this goes! 

Interesting blend of period piece and JKR! :)

I know I've read this before. Are you re-posting it, or was it on another fanfic site first?

I've just realised that this story isn't finished and I am heartbroken and utterly bereft. Please, if you see this, will you satisfy my need to devour your fics, and finish this glorious story?? Please?

So far so good. Can't wait to read more. ^_^

I am so enjoying this story  I really appreciate the way you are adapting it to a different time period. Can't wait to see how everything unfolds!

Ah a new name for Harry Potter.  "The Boy With Poor Eyesight."  LOL.This is really fun!

Wonderful!  A lovely way to start my weekend!

I can't tell you how much I love this story!  It's great to see them all in a different setting, and you've done so well describing simple things like their clothing to great effect.  Very excited for the next chapter.

I'm glad he doesn't resetn her for her rash words. Even if any of them cannot say what it means. I can't wait for school to begin already.

This is working really well as a Regency story. I like the beginnings of the relationship between Hermione and Professor Snape. They can at least speak honestly to one another.

This is such fun!  Snape has been very kind to her in his own way.  It will be interesting to see how that changes when she is in his classroom.  I suppose despite time or place, she will still be a know-it-all :)  Brilliant, as always.
