[It's me!]

Simple question What's the correct way to bring mention to a title of a novel, book, film, etc. in the body of an essay?

I remember being told once that there were two ways it could be correctly done but I just cannot remember. Help me out, please.

underline titles of novels, inverted comma's for songs and poems but dont get too caught up in it all in exams the examiners dont care that much especially in standard english. if your submitting something like an analysis for extension then check out any sitethat expalins the "harvard system"

 

[Season]

I usually refer to it within the first two lines of the essay.

In Season is An Awesome Chick (2007), author Season transforms her wonderful personality into a story set in 1900, providing invaluable insights into how awesome she really is.

Definitely refer to all texts in the introduction, this part is absoltuely essential. From then on I usually refer to as the author's work ie "Season adapts ..." or "Season uses lyrical language ..." because it's shorter.

I'm not 100% sure, but I'd underline Frontline (Sitch et al) and put the fictional show in inverted commas.
