Review: http://www.katspace.org/reviews/netfic/Author/Vain#Title_FourteenFathoms
Summary: Snape discovers something disturbing about Harry and acts... like Snape.
This is an "abusive Dursleys" story. There's a lot of them about. So what makes this one different? The way it is told. Not just that it is second-person present tense, but the way it holds your attention, the expressive and vivid language. No melodrama here: Snape is very Snape-ish, still plotting and taking off points even as he helps Harry.
So... what do you think?
