How to Write Book Reviews?

Ask HG Nadel Need to write a book review? Whether for a school requirement or a professional gig, book reviews are always an interesting work on, with little requirements in terms of formalities and plenty of flexibility when it comes to style and form.

Book reviewers, provided you distribute your work to the world, wield a unique power to persuade people to buy a book, regardless of whether they're professionals or not. How many times, for instance, have you bought a book based on an Amazon recommendation from otherwise regular individuals on the website's review page?

Choosing A Book

When choosing a book to review, try to pick out a subject that is relevant to you. There's no point reading advanced text on genetic evolution, after all, if you can't even manage the basics of the subject. What kind of review can you expect to write on a subject you're completely ignorant of?

Questions To Ask Yourself

It will be helpful to jot down notes while you're reading, so that it becomes easier to write your review later down the line. While going through the material, ask yourself the following questions and take occasional notes when a relevant thought presents itself:

     

How well is the book received by the public at large?

What message is unique to this book?

Do you believe in the ideas it puts forward What's good about the book?

What don't you enjoy about it?

Also make sure to keep notes on chapter summaries, so it becomes easier to write about it later on.

Review Format

When crafting the actual review, you can use any essay format you're familiar with to write the review. Make sure to include relevant points you've written down, along with a very brief summary, into the body of your review. Talk about why you loved or hated the book, providing readers a reason to either get it or eschew it from their buying lists.
