| Book reports and book reviews are
similar. Book reports tend to be a little more descriptive (What is this
book about?) and book reviews are usually more persuasive (Why a reader
should or shouldn't read this book). Both offer a combination of summary and
commentary. They are a way to think more deeply about a book you've read
and to demonstrate your understanding.
Most teachers have their own requirements, and sometimes a specific
format they expect you to follow, so be sure to check, but the following
general elements of a book report or book review should be helpful.
