With a name like Gigglebean, you can’t expect her to be very smart (JK she became Professor Gigglebean later in life) anyway. sisters? cousins? Heirs to the jellybean and chocolate bunny empire?

During the weekend, I bound Pride or what goeth before a fall by Toodleoo. Tood's pen is witty, smart and funny, with a good use of irony and humour. I miss her, we were friends for long, and we have the opportunity to meet each other when she travelled. We lost contact during the pandemic. That's why I want to have one of her stories on my bookshelf as a way to honour her.

Toodleoo has always been a lot of fun to read, and this story is no exception. In this one, Hermione Granger, considers herself an excellent evaluator of the character of others. Guided by a series of stereotypes, she decides that Snape is gay and wants to support him. Thus begins this amusing comedy of errors.

Summary:

When it came to reading people, Hermione Granger was almost always right. How did she miss the fact that Snape was gay?

The binding process: It took some time to bind, as I was rusty from being away from my tools for so long. I had to re made the cover a few times, but I'm happy with the result. The fic is very tongue in cheek and I wish to show that in the design. I didn't have any rainbow like stuff, so I chose a cheerful yellow book cloth. The title had a complicated an imbricated font (the one I for chapter titles), and screwed I up badly while weeding it, so I humbly restarted with a conservative and safer cover design.

Fonts:

Chapter titles: GluckMixer Font.

Text: Palatino Linotype family.

Remember if you read it, review it! Don’t like it? Move on. Supporting the author means more fic will be available for consumption, especially on rare pairs or strange AUs and you could seriously turn a day around with a few kind or supportive words. Works In Progress need the feedback in order to survive.
