How to write a book report

You just need to follow these 10 ideas to write an inspiring book report.

 

 1,  What point does the author want to express? Does the writer make his or her point clear?

 

 2. Why does the author want to express this opinion? What is the author's intention?

 

3, What evidence or examples does the author use to support his or her point of view? Do the evidence or examples support the author's point of view? Are the evidence or examples logical? Are there any flaws or weaknesses in these arguments or examples?

 

4, Can you, as the reader, provide any other evidence or examples to support the author's point of view?

5,    Have you ever read a book or article on a similar subject? How did you feel at that time?
Now that you read the book or article, do you experience something new, or do you feel the same as before? Why is that?  

  

6, What can you draw inspiration from the author's ideas? Can you guide your future study and practice? Can the author's views have a positive impact on society and the general public? Can this idea be applied to other fields?

7,    What techniques does the author use to impress the reader?

8,    Do you, the reader, fully agree with the author? Or partial agree? Or deny the author's views altogether? Why is that?

9, What advice would you give the author if he were to produce a second edition? What to add? What to delete? If you were asked to write a similar essay, how would you plan to do it?

 10,  Are readers and critics right in what they say about the book? When you are asked to write a review article, how should you write it?
