Book review

How to write a book review

Below is a list of questions about your book. If you answer them carefully and in detail you can use your answers to form a detailed book review. You should also state and explain your opinion of the book.

PLOT

What happened in the story? What was the story about? What length of time did it cover? ( the amount of time that passes during the course of the book, not how long it took you to read it) What was unusual? Ordinary? What was the opening of the book like? Exciting? Slow? Dramatic? Dull? How did the events in the book follow on from each other? What was the climax of the story? How did it end?

CHARACTERS

Who were the main characters? What were they like? Were they described in much detail? Which did you find most interesting? Most sympathetic? (you like them since you can understand their feelings and you may have had a similar experience yourself) What kind of relationships and / or conflicts were there? Did these characters change throughout the story?

COMMENTS ON STYLE

Was the story written in the first or third person? (‘I’ or ‘he/she’) How important was this to the story? Was the setting described in detail? Were feelings, thoughts and attitudes described in depth? Was it a good story? Why? What was your favourite moment in the story? Why? Were there any moments (or characters) that might have been improved? If so, what changes would you make?

GENERAL

Do you think the writer had a particular reason (a message) for telling this story? How do you feel during and after reading it? Do you think you learned anything from the book about people? Ways of life? How would you compare it to other books you´ve read? What else do you think is important to say about the book? Would you recommend this book?
