Writing is engaging and mechanically excellent for an online audience of teen and adult readers; introduction provides an outstanding "hook" to entice readers; concise and effective summary of the plots; fluid and informative integration of 5 hyperlinks, and/or audio and video that clearly indicate substantive text-to-world connections; clear and persuasive evaluation of the book, including recommendations for age and content appropriateness; all books read and written about as required.
