Rounding up to 4★, but I didn't have to debate more than a moment, because I liked the dynamics and the outcomes quite a bit. The style and progression just felt a bit simple, in both emotional developments and plot/action. When I checked the length, I was surprised to see it's 140K, since it felt like no more than 80K or so, for better or worse.
Here's my emphasizing-the-genuine-positives end-of-reading comment, which is sufficiently unspoiler-y to share as-is:
Then it's not that much farther in that the above-mentioned "unique idea" comes into play, but I will spoiler-hide that reveal, so you can choose whether to wait and see:
I will clarify that anyone hoping for sexy threesome times should look elsewhere. Even though they realize they're more than friends, and committed to each other, while still teenagers (the typical model for school-age HP canon AND fic), it's all quite youthful and pretty clean on the page.
The story involves the Grangers welcoming Harry into their family, and Luna when she needs it, too, and with Harry comes Dobby then Winky, Sirius and Remus. None of them are willing to stay under the current Ministry of Magic's authority and lack of protection.
The story is NOT Weasley-bashing, btw. Ginny's the only one without a reasonable grasp of Harry's reality.

Kudos! You took a unique idea, and gave us a lovely trio where they strengthen and comfort each other, and a family-by-choice to love, too, making a life on their terms. Cheers for Moldy Voldy and his Death Munchers biting off more than they could chew, and for both Dumbledore's ruthlessness and Ginny's too-plausible obsession getting revealed and appropriately answered. Wixen Britain is looking a lot more promising with its new leadership.The "blurb" is just a tagline, so I will offer a bit more: Harry gets arrested by an offended Fudge in the very first pages, for the "unexplained" deaths of Cedric and Crouch Senior, and for a sham investigation of his "lying or delusional" claim that Voldemort is back.

Love this one, it manages to avoid the vast majority of the tropes and use powers that I haven't seen, and situations that are believable in other stories to move the plot along.
