Writing a Review

Five elements of writing a literary review (borrowed and adapted from Cambridge Checkpoint English 2).
1. Some details about the author
2. A short summary of the story without telling it all
3. Description and examples of the style of the piece
4. Comments on the ending without giving it away
5. Comments about your opinion of the piece
Remember the point of a review is to help your readers decide whether they want to watch the movie (or read the book, or look at the painting) or not.
