    How to Write a Book Review Format?

    The format of a book review allows students to provide an in-depth analysis of the book. However, it all
    depends on how you are writing your book review but there are some general guidelines that you need to
    follow.
    If you follow the proper guidelines, it will show that you have understood the main theme and ideas of the
    book.
    Before heading to the book review essay format, please remember book reviews are different from book
    reports. A book report is simpler in structure than a book review and also does not require an in-depth
    analysis of the text.
    Here are some important guidelines that you can follow if you don’t know how to format a book review.
    1. Begin with the basic characteristics of the book such as its name, author’s name and often you will
    also be asked to write the name of the teacher as well.
    2. The definition of the book and bibliographical information should be included in the opening clause.
    3. Write about the main theme in the following section and include a few sentences to summarize the
    text.
    4. The next step is to introduce the main characters of the book to your readers. Provide an objective
    description of the important parts of the story.
    5. Provide a vivid description of the main setting and interesting information about your story to keep
    your readers engaged.
    6. Clarify the purpose of the story and summarize the plot by answering the following questions.
    1. What are the goals of each character in the story?
    2. What is the main conflict in the plot?
    3. Were the conflicts resolved?
    7. Finally, write about the main message that the author has tried to convey to his readers. Access
    whether the author has met his/her goals.
    8. Provide a final assessment of the text and support it with specific examples.
    With these academic book review format guidelines, you will be able to write an excellent book review.
    However, if you are still not sure, refer to the following sections and know what a perfect college book
    review format is.
