Points to ponder as you read the entire book:

From what point of view is the book written?

Do you agree or disagree with the author’s point of view?

Make notes as you read, passages to quote in your review.

Can you follow the author’s thesis, “common thread”?

Are concepts well defined? Is the language clear and convincing? Are the ideas developed? What areas are covered and which areas are not? How accurate is the information?

Is the author’s concluding chapter, the summary, convincing?

If there are footnotes, do they provide important information? Do they clarify or extend points made in the text?

If relevant, make note of the book’s format – layout, binding, etc. Are there maps, illustrations? Are they helpful?

Is the index accurate? What sources did the author use — primary, secondary? Make note of important omissions.

What did the book accomplish? Is more work needed?
