Critical Book Review: The beach by Alex Garland

When writing a critical book review you should presuppose that your audience has not read the piece of work you are writing about. Therefore it should contain a short description of the book together with an evaluation and or recommendation to your readers. You can choose to write your review from a particular angle, e.g. focusing on plot, characters, theme or maybe the style used by the author (look at page 112-114 in Progress Gold). Quotes are often valuable in order to support and exemplify your opinions.
In a review you use the present tense when mentioning events from the plot. Look at this example: In Fox Evil, the wife of a wealthy landowner is found dead on the terrace of the manor house in a remote Dorset village. Furthermore, when writing about literature the titles should be in italics. (see above).
