Here’s a hint: Book reviews are not book reports. You don’t have to summarize every detail and give away the ending to prove you read the book. No one will be grading you for comprehension and insightful conclusions. If want to do a book report, kindly email it to your former sixth grade teacher.
Also, unless you are E.B. White or Dorothy Parker reviewing for the New Yorker and Vanity Fair (which you are not), there is no need to discuss the details of your personal life in relationship to the book. Don’t care if the book reminds you of picking daisies in Wisconsin and the smell of your granny’s marmalade.
This is probably why book reviews should be left to the professional critics and librarians.
