  A very interesting start. I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't take advantage of Sirius marrying Andromeda to make Tonks (Black now, I guess) Harry's age. Still, if Bonnie's a metamorphmagus I've got no complaints.
  
  Looking forward to chapter 2.

  I've always liked Tonks being older than Harry so it didn't even cross my mind to change her to Harry's age (I did make her a little younger so she'd be at Hogwarts when he arrives).
  
  I'm leaning more towards Bonnie following her dad's path. Maybe I'll make it into a latent talent on the side, I'll think about it. Hope you'll still read!

  But... I thought Andromada married Ted Tonks. Sirius is her cousin... this is confusing. Lily's parents had died before this... Oh well. You're the author. I'm just confused... Oh so confused...
  Ok. I'm over it. Good story. It's original. Keep writing!

  Well this is labeled AU. =p Way back when I was thinking it up and I was brainwashed by LJ communities, Sirius was going to be with an OC and the Tonks were going to be included, but in the long run it was just bringing in way too many people to the situation. Someone needed to die at Halloween, so I went with Lily's parents, that way Petunia would blame Lily and magic for their deaths. Thanks for reading!

  The writing is good and the start was excellent. I've never before seen a story where Harry's gran causes the downfall of lord Voldemort. Looking forward to reading the rest of what you've already written. Keep up the ggod work.

  Thanks for reading and liking it so far! It took me awhile to figure out a somewhat realistic way for Lily & James to live, originally I had placed the paternal grandparents to have their demise in Godric's Hollow, but then I figured, that since Lily was the catalyst behind the canon protection, her parents sharing her and Harry's blood would work as well. Funny what a pair of Muggles can do. =)
