BOOK REVIEW ESSAY GUIDELINES
The purpose of a book review essay is to determine how well a student read and understood the book. The difference between a book review essay and a book “report” is
that in the book essay the student strives for a more in-depth analytical treatment of the book, and in doing so provides the appropriate historical and analytical
background to allow a complete examination of the book and its subject.
The book review essay should begin with a thesis statement outlining exactly what the student will accomplish in the essay. Once this has been accomplished the next
section is the summary of the book. The student should provide a summary of the major points of the book. In doing so the student will use citations when necessary to
provide the reader where the information was gathered. If direct quotes are used to emphasize a point or statement, etc., direct quotation marks should be used and the
correct citations given. All citations must conform to Turabian Style Format.
