Formal Critiques

Hello! My name is Jaden.

My style of book reviews might seem a big confusing, so here is some elaboration. My passion for books had grown so large, I decided to look into the proper way to give a book review. I took a college course that showed me the exact layout, then I decided to share that information with the world along with my personal opinion about the things I read.

This curiosity became a passion project that has completely change my consumption of books. I value books with more depth and complexity. Many of the books on the market today have become a way for authors to capitalize on the reading experience rather than to provide perspective and share experiences. I criticize authors and their writing style because I believe that every narrative does deserve a space but not every story needs to be told. The reading community has changed into a space where there are too many taking the lead without much progress being made. I want this blog to challenge authors to enhance their’s audiences literacy through their writing, and over time, getting the audience to become more literate and knowledgable as consumers.

My review style has two categories. The first being the formal critique, where I apply the skills I’ve learned to the stories I read. The second being my opinion. Despite how well the author executes, I still have my own connections with the stories I read. These two categories will be ranked in a five-star system just displayed in two sections of my posts.
