I know this might offend some diehard, purist Tolkien fans, but I was raised on the Lord of the Rings movies and for most of my life, my only Tolkien knowledge came from the movies. Yes, I can hear your mixed cheers, boos, and silence. However, if you've read my review on The Silmarillion, you'll... Continue Reading →
Coming to the simplest part (in my opinion) of how to write a book, it's time to talk about the plot, i.e. the story itself. If you haven't already read the other two posts on how to write your villian and your protagonists, I highly suggest that you go do so before reading this since... Continue Reading →
The Screwtape Letters is a novel written by Christian apologist and author C.S. Lewis (the same dude who wrote The Chronicles of Narnia) that showcases the temptations that humans struggle with through the view of the demons doing the tempting. When I read this book toward the end of my freshman year of highschool, the... Continue Reading →
Continuing on with my series about how to write a book, it's time to talk about the character that your book centers around: your protagonist. Your protagonist is the main character who is trying to survive or stop whatever the villian is doing. It's very important to know how to write this character, otherwise your... Continue Reading →
Villians are what really push the story foward and are the ones who make your story interesting. After doing so many reviews of T.V. shows and books (most of which have been on books/shows that were poorly written), I have realized that having a strong villian is one of the most crucial elements of your...

Finally, we are at the end of this trek through hell and unlike my review of Rings of Power, Rick Riordan hasn't come out with anything else set in Norse mythology so I won't have to do even more reviews of this awful series. I thank God for that small mercy. I don't think my... Continue Reading →
Rick Riordan must've had a gun to his head while writing the second book in this abysmal series with how much forced "diversity" there is. If you thought The Sword of Summer was bad, be prepared for a butt load of intersectionality politics in book 2: The Hammer of Thor that make it unreadable. I'm... Continue Reading →
2020 was a crappy year for everyone, but one of the things that made it crappy for me personally was the fact that I read the Magnus Chase trilogy. For some context, from the ages of 12-14, I was a huge Rick Riordan fan. I had all the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books, the... Continue Reading →
Hey, guys! M.J. here with some updates for the Tanuki Corner. As you guys should know by now, I'm a highschool student and unfortunately, summer is almost over and school will be starting in about a month. While I had hoped to grow this blog site a lot more over this summer, I had gotten... Continue Reading →
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen deserves every bit of praise that it has gotten. Published in 1813, Pride and Pejudice is the 2nd most read book in Britian, beating out even Harry Potter and just behind Lord of the Rings. Because of its success as a novel, it has gotten two movie adaptations and... Continue Reading →
