First, a review gives the reader a concise summary of the content. This includes a relevant description of the topic as well as its overall perspective, argument or purpose; Second, a review offers a critical assessment of the content. This involves the reactions to the work under review: what strikes the audience as noteworthy, whether or not it was effective or persuasive, and how it enhanced the understanding of the issues at hand. Finally, a review often suggests whether or not the audience would appreciate it. So when we get something like this, it's amazing! Check it out:
