Think of it like a book report, but more fun :)

In other words, I don't know how to write them well either.

Here's what I came up with way back when I tried my hand at book blogging:

Here's a better example of reviewing style than mine :). Perhaps that'll suggest a template you can use for your reviews:

Oh, and one more question... how'd you get the cool bullets on your blog??

Just by using a bullet list from the blogger entry panel.

The control for it looks like
* ---
* ---
* ---

The exact icon being used for the bullets is

and it's controlled by the template, near the bottom of the Typography Main Entry secion, in this block:

.post li {
line-height:1.5em;
list-style:none;
background:url("http://www.blogblog.com/scribe/list_icon.gif") no-repeat 0px .3em;
vertical-align:top;
padding: 0 0 .6em 17px;
margin:0;
}

I didn't set that - it was the default when I created the blog.
