AN: Thanks so much to Carnival Girl for being such a lovely person and betaing and Brit-picking this for me. If you like Remus and Tonks, go read her stuff, it's amazing and deserves lots of reviews. If you like this, read my other stuff. Please review!
Disclaimer: I don't own Hermione at all.
Books were my friends before people were. They were my escape. Most children would play sports or with their friends, but I, I would be reading. It took until this year to learn a very important lesson, even with all that reading. Books cannot be trusted to tell the whole truth. They are fallible. They were written by people after all, most of them anyway. Some are compiled magically, but that's besides the point. It took me so long to learn, and it was a hard lesson to learn. For the first time, books have let me down.
