Back in January, I did a review of Season 1 of the hit comedy The Office after watching it on DVD. I intended to do another review of it after I finished Season 6, but, in classic fashion, procrastinated until now. On the bright side, I can now say my brother and I have binged... Continue Reading →
[Author's Note: Before we begin, I would like to clarify two things. First, when I started writing this, one of my sources was a post from the website Answering Islam that was written by a guy called Sam Shamoun.

Finally, over a year after I read this epic, I'm talking about it on the blog. Let's give three cheers for procrastination! But, on a more serious note, Beowulf is the most important work of literature in the English language. Written by an unknown author around 700-750 A.D., Beowulf is relevant for its cultural framework,... Continue Reading →
The Pendragon Cycle, the series that I have dedicated several blog posts to reviewing in preparation for the show to come out in fall of 2024. From the behind the scenes footage, some parts of it looked really good and after reading the books, I was expecting a good fantasy show and was waiting with... Continue Reading →
I had meant to post this on Thursday, but apparently, I forgot, so here is my review of Frankenstein that I wrote back in March to go with my review of Paradise Lost. https://tanukicorner.com/2025/03/12/review-frankenstein-spoilers/?page_id=3666
