Help, pleaseWhat do you think is the review that best showcases what I can do as a reviewer? It can be positive or negative, of any book. Please, share your opinion in a comment or an email! I need to pick one for a competition and because some people I know have recently asked to see some of my reviewing but I don’t want them to have to sort through all the other stuff on this blog. Any help would be appreciated!

Okay, I am a little biased, but I like your review of my book! To be fair, I should look at some of the others, too. But I think it is really well written. It’s short, so maybe you could include another one that isn’t such an all-out rave.

Book of a Thousand Days is really good, too, and a little longer.
I also like your review of The Second Virginity of Suzy Green, though I think this phrase needs a little tweak:
“and are all even members of the virginity club.” The “even” doesn’t quite work for me.
That said, I enjoyed skimming over a bunch of your reviews. Your writing is smooth, and I particularly like your longer sentences, which flow really well. All of it flows–you’re good!

Can you give us a little more context for what the competition is? That way we can play to your audience.
