A well-written review will include a brief synopsis of the plot and address the following:Pace. Is it a page-turner? Is it plot-driven? Is it stream-of-consciousness? Are there multiple plots?
Characterization. Are the characters memorable? Are they stereotypical? Are they strong or weak? Are they more important than the plot?
Storyline (not plot). Is it psychological and introspective, exciting and action-oriented, serious literature, or pure entertainment? Are people more important than events?
Setting. Is it important, or could the story be set anywhere? Is it simple or detailed? Does it affect the tone of the story?
