Ugh. We're back with part two of our Bad Book Club on the Harry Potter fanfiction that makes My Immortal seem like classic literature.

It's a two-parter where this first episode contains our general thoughts and context on the purpose of the text, who wrote it, and why it's essentially a manifesto wearing a lightning scar and circular glasses. Part two, coming next week, will get into the nitty gritty of what makes it so particularly terrible. If you want additional background, go listen to our recent episode with Adam Becker,
