Yes, the link to NCU is long, but it is very informative and their example of turning a blank non-fiction book review into an excellent review is very helpful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-50117292107860974142015-01-14T13:43:18.226-06:002015-01-14T13:43:18.226-06:00I know well-written book reviews can be very helpf...I know well-written book reviews can be very helpful when deciding to buy a book, especially if you are purchasing online without benefit of seeing the actual book. I've written a few fiction book reviews over the years, but will definitely keep these points in mind to refer to if I find a non-fiction book I wish to review. Thanks for these helpful hints, Coletta.Wednesday Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11125647693828663780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-28582016407629559422015-01-14T13:37:32.172-06:002015-01-14T13:37:32.172-06:00Thanks for a very good summary.

This was certainly very helpful for me. <br /><br />Also enjoyed the link to NC University - but I need to read that one over a couple of times, quite a lot to take in there.Hamish Haywardhttp://intransigentfruit.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-12187263530379041562015-01-14T12:30:45.183-06:002015-01-14T12:30:45.183-06:00Book reviews definitely have a place on the Web wh...Book reviews definitely have a place on the Web where we can't pick up a book in the bookstore and flip through the pages. Even though many retailers and publishers offer a preview of the introduction and first chapter or two, it just isn't the same.

I frequently buy books based on the book reviews I have read and recommendations. I really wish books had ratings like movies. I think that is why I prefer book review recommendations instead of just picking a book up based on the cover. Often a reviewer will tell me if a book is too explicit or uses profane language.Sylvestermousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13690700963857028874noreply@blogger.com
