OTHER ANALYSIS:
Every so often, I feel the need to write about a book, movie, or TV show in a way that isn’t exactly a review, but more a sort of analysis. Here’s a sampling of those:
- The Eighth Weasley (A Harry Potter character analysis)
- A New Doctor Who?
- No One Agrees With Me About Twilight
- Why it’s okay to love the new Star Trek
