What does it take to write a book review that will get published? Former San Francisco Chronicle Book Editor and McSweeney’s publisher Oscar Villalon shows how to write a smart, entertaining book review. He explains what works best in long and brief reviews, what to keep in mind when assessing a book, and how to shape the tone of your review. Villalon’s reviews have appeared on NPR.org and on radio for KQED’s The California Report. He’s served on the board of the National Book Critics Circle and on the jury for the Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
