The Dark Fantastic: Race and the Imagination from Harry Potter to the Hunger Games by Ebony Elizabeth Thomas

5.0

First, I cheated slightly and didn't read the chapters about texts I don't know--Merlin and The Vampire Diaries--but this book is brilliant--beautifully written and researched and innovative in approach. Also, not just for educators but for literary critics, creative writers, sociologists, and scholars of the publishing industry. Thanks, Emily Meixner, for loaning it to me.
