One of the movies that my family would occasionally borrow from the library when I was really young was The Last Unicorn, an animated movie that came out in 1982 that I'm sure most of you Gen Xers have seen. I remembered parts and pieces of it such as the animation style, the scene with... Continue Reading →
Blog: How To Write a Romantic Villian: Mr. Willoughby vs. Mr. Wickham (Spoilers)
I first became aware of Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensibility when I watched the movie adaptation start Kate Winslet and only recently started reading the book (review coming soon). While I've been reading the book, one of the things that most stood out to me (and has ever since I read Pride and Prejudice)... Continue Reading →
Review: Happy Jane Austen Festival! Let’s Talk About Clueless (Spoilers)
Unbeknownst to me, Jane Austen is actually celebrated for two weeks out of the year, with the first week being Jane Austen Regency Week, which takes place in late June and the Jane Austen festival which is happening right now until September 22 in Bath, England. Who knew that the Jane Austen fandom was that... Continue Reading →
Review: Rings of Power Season 2, Episode 2 is the Best and Worst of Amazon (Spoilers).
If you were to compare this episode to Tolkien's work or really any other T.V. show that understood the assignment, it would be abysmal, just like the rest of the show. However, because Rings of Power Season 1 and the previous episode of Season 2 has lowered my proverbial bar to the point where it's... Continue Reading →
Blog: How to Fix Your Narcissistic Character: Orual From Till We Have Faces (Spoilers).
Till We Have Faces is probably one of C.S. Lewis' lesser-known works. When I first saw the book when I was checking off the list of books that I had for my 8th grade year, I had had no idea that it even existed. Then I read the description of the book and became very... Continue Reading →
Blog: I Made AI Write a Story. It Was…Something.
Well, I've come up with some armor and picture reviews from Bing's AI program in the past few months, but now it's time to put its creative abilities to the test in the form of writing. I've had this idea floating around in the back of my mind for a while now as I thought... Continue Reading →
Review: Time to Talk About My Favorite TV Show! 200th Blog Post Special (Spoilers).
It's hard to believe that I've post 200 articles on this blog. Back in June, I celebrated the blog's one year anniversary by redoing the look and feel of the Tanuki Corner, and now I will celebrate this milestone by once again ranting about Rings of Power, the show whose second season dropped yesterday. So... Continue Reading →
Blog: Why is There Such a Double Standard in Christian Media?
This topic comes from my critique of the Millie Maven trilogy by Ted and Rachel Dekker that I wrote a few weeks ago. In reading some of the Amazon reviews, I noticed one disgruntled reader lamenting the fact that so many Christian parents will allow their kids to read that trilogy, but absolutely forbid them...

Review: I Only Made it Six Books into the Alex Rider Series (Spoilers).
A few years ago, I was given the Alex Rider series after I had asked for it as a Christmas gift. Why did I ask for it? Because it was recommended by Rick Riordan on his website, and I was still going through my Percy Jackson phase and thought that Riordan could do no wrong.... Continue Reading →
Blog/News: Why Does the Young Adult Section Suck Nowadays.
A week or two ago, I wrote an article about what I found in Barnes & Noble's young adult section. In that article, I posted the pictures I took of the books and among them were such titles such as Queer Ducks, The Black Friend: How to be a Better White Person, White Fragility, Afterlove,...
