Guidelines
Here’s what we’re looking for in terms of content for each review:
- Reviews should have at least one quotation to give a sense of style.
- No plot spoilers for narrative should be included, but the review should give some idea of plot.
- It may be helpful to say where the author is from. Is the book a first book? Does the author write in other genres?
- Provide constructive critique, keeping in mind it is possible to dislike a book but also to see value in it.
- Emotional reactions to a book are welcome, but our reviews must analyze those reactions with sound criticism.
- Reviews should be approximately 400-450 words in length.
