I’ve been having issues picking one of my critiques and sticking with it because of how much has been occurring in the outside world. Between the SCOTUS ruling on the legality of same sex marriage, the ever-intriguing Bernie Sanders, the continual ISIS expansions, the lack of modern scientific understanding, and more, I don’t know where … Continue reading Four Men, Three Millennium, and What It Means to Women
Pt. 1 Pt. 2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “Are you hungry, shit-bag? Want anything to eat before… Well, you obviously know.” Tilda asked him. “Well, what are they making in the dining hall today?” Aaron said.

I’m gonna go off the deep end today and branch onto one of my favorite bands. Of all time. The strange animated troupe: Gorillaz. I’m not really able to talk about other bands on a literature blog, it’d fall out of line pretty fast, but Gorillaz are a bit different. Gorillaz is two men, Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett … Continue reading Love Forever, Love Is Free- A Breakdown of Gorillaz Pt. 1

So I went to pick up the sequel, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and boy was that a wild ride. So let’s cut to … Continue reading Dragon Quest- The Girl Who Played with Fire
Keeping up the vibe of strong female characters, I’m gonna talk about one of my favorite rock musicals- Hedwig and the Angry Inch. It’s currently a big deal, running over a year on Broadway with big-wigs (ha!) Neil Patrick Harris, Andrew Rannells (Elder Price in Book of Mormon), Michael C. Hall (Dexter), and now Darren Criss (the guy … Continue reading Wicked Little Town- Hedwig and the Angry Inch
This week has apparently become my week for writing about female characters. Is this bad? No, it means I am looking at a lot of work’s with prominent female characters. If the world of literature worked as the, well, normal world worked we would have about half of our characters in literature as women.
