• In your review, include the title and author/artist
• Tell me what you liked and/or disliked (the plot? characters? the ending? too slow?)
• Please please please do NOT give away the ending, or what happens to major characters. No spoilers!!
• Give a rating of 1-5 stars, with 5 being the best of the best
• Review should be at least 3-5 sentences (be sure to put your initials at the end)
• Be creative! List your favorite tracks of a CD, favorite quote from a book, etc.
• After clicking on "Comments" and writing your review, select "Anonymous"
