3. Should I prioritize any specific communication style (e.g., formal, conversational, humorous)?
4. Do you have a preferred length or depth for the analysis?
5. Are there any specific scenes or chapters you want me to compare in detail?
6. Should I consider the cultural or historical context of the story in my analysis?
