This is easy and also gives you a link on Amazon! To write a review on Amazon, you have to be registered with them. This means you have to have ordered something from them in the past. Just go to the book’s Amazon page, scroll about halfway down and click on “Rate this item.”
Write a short review (fewer than 250 words) with a catchy title (5 stars always appreciated!). It might be useful to write it in a document first and then copy and paste it into the Amazon site. It would be helpful to other readers if you pointed to something in the book that is particularly valuable information for you.
