To begin a review, I start with the format required by Midwest Book Review. I then adapt the format and word count to what is required by each submission site. A nice touch is to comment on the cover design, table of contents structure and or glossary at the back of the book. (Sample: This beautifully laid out trade paperback has a gorgeous and practical design both inside and out. I recommend you read this book with a highlighter and a pen, ready to take copious notes in the blank pages thoughtfully provided between chapters.):

Detail the recommended audience and note why they should read the book. (Sample: Manners That Sell: Adding The Polish That Builds Profits should be required reading for high school and college students and for anyone already in the business environment. Once upon a time, good manners were taught in school and at home, but that time has long since passed. This book provides the perfect refresher course for those of us who learned manners but no longer remember the finer points of etiquette.) Read More
