This week Care asked us to share our standard review formats. I contemplated this question for days before concluding that it's my goal not to have a standard review format. So, that's no help to anyone! As always, it was interesting to see various levels of organization, rating systems, inclusion of covers or lack thereof, and styles taken on by different bloggers
My favorite part of this task was seeing other Geekers favorite reviews, both their own and those of others.
More than one person lauded Emily Reads' fun haiku reviews.
Suey especially liked Melissa's review of Aurelia, because of her enthusiasm and descriptive language.
Susan relies on Eva's reviews, and points us to her review of The Beekeeper's Apprentice as an example of her style.
And Maree appreciates the way Joanne structures her reviews in general.
Last, but certainly not least, more than one person fondly remembers Dewey's reviews. Melissa is going to try to review a book in Dewey's style of asking readers for questions about the book, and Vasilly posted about Dewey's review of East of Eden.
I hope everyone else enjoyed this topic as much as I did!
