What is a book report and how to write it?

Book reports are one of the most important pieces of academic writing that students write to express their analysis logically. Often book reports are mixed with book reviews, but they are different in their nature and sense of purpose.

In book reports, all the content is analyzed and criticized the basis of its style, genre, and the information. For writing a report it is important to read the entire book and then for analysis on all the characters and transitional phases. It revolves around the main message and theme of the book.

Incorporate the following information in your book report.

Create your book summary

Read the book and then summaries all the content of the book. This will help you narrow down all the information and the important events in the book. This step will help you with report writing.

Create character and theme analysis

Characters are what make an actual story. Understanding the personality of the characters, and their emotions behind actions are the essence of any report writing. Thus carefully understand characters and create their analysis.

On the basis of character knowledge and the important events, create an analysis of the main theme of the book. Think about the central message it is trying to give.

Maintain timeline

While writing reports, make sure that you narrate all the important transitional events in the right order. Don’t change the time of occurrence of the important events.

Know what you are doing!

You are a report writer, not an essay writer, so write in report-tone and maintain the interest of the reader. Start with introducing the topic thoroughly. In the body incorporate the above tips and in the conclusion reinforce the main theme and write your final opinions.
