You too could be Blogger of the Month!
Some tips for a good review are:
- Include just a little bit of plot summary
- What is your personal response to the book (was it good or bad, exciting or boring, sad or happy?)
- Explain why you felt this about the book. What did the author do to make the story exciting or boring or sad or happy?
- Talk about the characters, what they did and if you identified with them
-Talk about the narrative style - was it written in the first person or third person?
