Missing moment from 'Deathly Hallows'
“They what?” said Harry, Ron, and Hermione together.
“Yeah,” said Neville, panting a little now, because the passage was climbing so steeply, “well, you can see their thinking. It had worked really well, kidnapping kids to force their relatives to behave, I s’pose it was only a matter of time before they did it the other way around. Thing was,” he faced them, and Harry was astonished to see that he was grinning, “they bit off a bit more than they could chew with Gran. Little old witch living alone, they probably thought they didn’t need to send anyone particularly powerful. Anyway,” Neville laughed, “Dawlish is still in St. Mungo’s and Gran’s on the run. She sent me a letter,” he clapped a hand to the breast pocket of his robes, “telling me she was proud of me, that I’m my parents’ son, and to keep it up.”
“Cool,” said Ron. (Deathly Hallows)

Summary
Sometimes, a one-night-stand with a guy off Tinder is just that: a one-night-stand. No lasting feelings, no strings attached. It's the kind of thing that's easy to get your head around when you're trying to get your heart around the end of a relationship.
Sometimes, it's not that simple.
Sometimes, you're a journalist, and you get assigned to write a piece on an up-and-coming restaurateur, who just might be that one-night-stand from Tinder that you can't stop thinking about. And sometimes, to make matters worse, the two of you get snowed in...
****
Or: Lily shags James, and thinks she'll never see him again. Right? Wrong.

one word: AMAZING
more words: banter, dialogue, real people, loads of excellent food. absolute heartwarming holiday vibes... good for a very cold day (but equally great to read in summer time;-)

Summary
"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the sixth month dies...”
Severus Snape overhears Sybill Trelawney's prophecy and thinks it through a little before repeating it. He changes one word- seven to six- July to June- with no idea of just how far reaching the consequences will be. And so, on Halloween of 1981, Voldemort targets a different boy.
Narcissa and Lucius find out very early on how far they are prepared to go to keep their son safe. But they do have allies, and some of them turn out to very unexpected.
And so begins the War of the Snakes.

Summary
When the Order of the Phoenix discovers that Lucius Malfoy, rich bachelor and womaniser extraordinaire, may secretly be a Death Eater with access to an item that could be the key to bringing down Voldemort, Lily Evans comes up with a brilliant plan: to seduce him into inviting her to his house, and then take the opportunity to snoop around for information.
James Potter, her mission partner, is less than thrilled with this idea.

Summary
‘Through here,’ James called from the kitchen. The anxiety that had welled up inside her ebbed away at the sound of his voice. ‘Don’t turn on the light.’
Pocketing her wand, she noticed the truly unnatural darkness stretching into every corner of the room, save for the small space touched by the light orb. It seemed as though someone had spun darkness into something palpable and blanketed every surface. Wondering what James had been up to, she crossed the room.
