Category Archives: Miscellaneous Reviews

The New Leaf Journal has a broad collection of categories for organizing articles. However, there are cases wherein we review something that does not fall neatly under any of our existing categories.

In the future, if we have cause to create a category that may encompass some of our misfit reviews, we may move individual articles out of this catch-all section.
