Ned,
Good question. For movies, I went through the painful exercise of indexing all my THiNC Approved movies right on the front page. (By the way, My Cousin Rachel is a must see, you’ll dig it I’m sure.)

The header menu will get you to topical areas you can scroll through at your leisure. But only like 5 of them. I have like 20. So, yeah – no, there isn’t. I have considered moving to a different WordPress theme that would do exactly that, but I’ve yet to find a good one. Please know though, that of my traffic, less than 10% are returning visitors. (Maybe because they can’t index!!?! Hahah.) so I mainly consider SEO and google visitors more so than internal navigation. Which, I know is a failure of mine. But switching sites seems a bit daunting. I could put my different topical writings in blocks on the front page. But I do less and less non-Movie stuff now. I actually spent a solid year doing book review posts hot and heavy. Like 8 to 10 books a month. But literally no one read them! Well, sometimes the authors themselves would swing through… but otherwise, no. So yes, I am something of a sell out it would seem.

As for the book. I adore this book. It’s just not what it was billed to me as originally. By the way, how’s your Infinite Jest reading coming along?!? Heheh.

Happy Christmas Lauren, I mean Ned, I mean, Cynthia, or whomever.

I enjoyed reading your thoughts about “House of Leaves”—it’s a unique book. Goodreads offered two lengthy well-written reviews by a couple of fellows with opposing feelings about the book—your review was Somewhere in the middle.

It’s not a horror story as it’s been mistakenly placed…perhaps as a way to hype it, get more readers? Anyway, I shared the same as you after reading it except maybe wondering a bit if the author is laughing at us.
