  Ah Tonks, you just have to love our favorite Metamorphmagus. I like the Character of Carmen and i can't wait to see how you bring Sirius in and how Dumbledork is gonna react when he finds out that the Dursleys have left.
  
  Looking forward to more.

  I love the fact he has met both someone in both worlds to help him mature. I do look forward to both relationships growing. Make sure them both know and are okay with the idea of sharing. I also like he can be trained by both

  Nice story but yes you do need a Beta.
  
  It's boring as of now. It'd have been nice to find if he had a block and who put it (for sure I mean).
  
  Besides one thing I don't get (same with JK's books). Why doesn't he show extra power because to fight Voldemort he needs it. Can you please rectify that in your fic?
  
  Also,
  - Don't make him appear an arrogant person
  - don't make him political fool. all stories do that and I am not sure why.
  
  
  
  Confusion:
  if he has Tom's knowledge then why is he readin it again? he has the knowledge so he should just go ahead and practice it.
  
  
  Looking forward to next chapter.
  
  if you think there'd be a bit of time between posting chapters, then can you make the chapters a bit long? like double than the 3rd chapter you have right now?

  Okay, I just saw this story and I have to complement you on an original point of departure for the AU and on a combination of concepts I don't think I've seen used together before.
  
  I do agree that you need a beta and I offer my services. Drop me an email at Cateagle@engineer.com and we can discuss it further in private. As for that problem you mentioned in your A/N concerning why you were grounded, if having someone experienced to go over things with would be of any help, I'll offer my assistnace there, too. I've done tutoring and I am a degreed engineer (have been for over three decades) who can explain a fair bit.

  Oh, iamspammer, there's a very good reason for him to read the material if he -just- has the memories of it, that reading helps make the knowledge a lot more accessible since it'll be filtered through hia consciousness; I've seem this covered in other fiction over the years.

  This is starting to be a very interesting story. It would be nice if Harry could take the lessons from Tom's early life and learn from it.
  
  Harry should also be able to understand what makes Voldemort tick a little better if he has his early memories.
  
  I like the fact that you are actually showing that Harry is 'growing up' as a result of his little 'accident'. In most stories, it seems that Harry goes from 15 to 25 years old (in the way he acts) in just a few paragraphs.
  
  It will be interesting to see how Harry relates to girls now that he is 'older'. I'm sure Ginny would be very 'compatable' to Harry since she was posessed by the same Tom Riddle (Voldemort) for the better part of a year and probable has a lot of the same 'memories' in the back of her mind.
  
  Tonks has never acted her age and would probable find it very easy to get along with Harry at this stage in his life. One of the problems with this would be Dumbledore... Is Tonks in the 'Order' yet, or haven't they organized since Voldemort doesn't have a body yet?
  
  Carmen will also be an interesting paring for Harry. Just how will he react to a Muggle girl? Will Tom's view of Muggles effect Harry poorly?
  
  I look forward to your next chapter.

  Author's response

  I have to say this is the best review i have recieved so far. Thank you. No the order hasn't formed yet and Tonks is still an auror trainee.

  You started off with an interesting and different AU with Harry getting Riddle's early life to learn and grown from and then you kind of abandoned that for a sex obsessed Harry. Granted he just hit puberty but knowing he will have a madman after him, as well as a manipulative Headmaster who for some as yet unknown reason blocked his power and stuffed him at the Dursleys to be abused, Harry isn't using the knowledge he gained wisely. Would like to see more of Riddles political and social knowledge shine through. And why is Harry reading third year books instead of reading and practicing?
