IMPORTANT: Please keep in mind that a book review is not a book report. Unlike a book report, a book review is critical. It provides a critical analysis of the ideas being discussed and presented by the author. A book report is merely a summary of the contents of the book, with no analysis or thoughtful opinions. Your assignment is review.
