  1. Writing a review of a book or film/movie The main purpose of a book review to give information to a potential reader so that they can decide whether or not they want to read the book. A review of a film/movie has the same purpose. You can approach it in the same way as a book review.

  2. Read or re-read the book and make notes. • Your notes should try to answer the questions a reader might have: • What kind of book is it? • What happens in the story? • Who are the main characters? • What is the main theme of the book? • Is it well written? • Would you recommend this book?

  3. Organize your notes • You can use the same plan as the model review (see below) . a successful review will contain these elements but the order can be changed.

  4. Write your review • Remember not to include too many details and do not give away the ending of the book. The reviewers recommends this book but the review also contains some criticisms. It is a good idea to try to write about both positive and negative aspect of the book.
