♥How do u write a college level book report?
I’m 13 years old and would like to prepare for college by writing as many book reports. I read a lot of books and whenever I finished the book I’m cuurently reading, I would like to write a book report on it. How do I write a college level book report?
How should I start it off?
I know I’m still young but would love to know how. I’m going to high school next year and want to impress the teachers.
There is no such thing as a “college level book report.” In college you don’t write book reports, you write “papers.” A book report is usually a mindless summary exercise to show you completed your reading assignment. A paper is a scholarly exercise of literary criticism intended to share insights you’ve gained from reading. A college paper might follow the development of themes or compare and contrast characters in one or more works.
If you want to write about your reading, that is great. The more you write, the more skillful you will become. Do NOT summarize the book. Write about your impressions: what did or didn’t you like about the characters, what themes were developed and how were they developed, what did you learn or what did the author try to teach you and did you agree with the author, and how was the book similar or different to other books you have read are a few examples of topics. Ask a librarian to help you find critical essays written about books you have read. Read them carefully so you can begin to understand how literary criticism is written. If you can, find critical readers to comment on your writing. You don’t want people who tell you how good everything is, you want people who are willing to say what is wrong and help you write better. Even at the highest level it is always possible to improve. Finally, keep reading. Read Shakespeare, Milton, and other literature that is considered “great.” The more well-written material you read, the better you own writing will be.
