Unlike a book summary, which outlines the plot or key points, a book review delves into how the book resonates, what works and what doesn\u2019t, and whether the book delivers on its promises.<\/p>\n<p>Book reviews are often found in newspapers, literary journals, blogs, YouTube channels, podcasts, and retail sites like Amazon or Goodreads.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Why_Write_Book_Reviews\"><\/span><strong>2.
