商品簡介
Hooper, Adult Books Editor at Booklist, offers librarians detailed advice on writing good reviews of both fiction and nonfiction books--as a marketing tool for the library as well as for book review media. He discusses the difference between pre- and post-publication reviews, the differences between literary criticism and book reviewing, elements of good reviews (with examples), why negative reviewing should be avoided, good habits of good reviewers, and how to conduct a review writing workshop. He includes a chapter by Joyce Saricks on writing audiobook reviews, and an appendix in which he briefly discusses his six favorite reviewers.
