Appearance and Style - (Out of 20)
The design isn't all that great, but it's clean and easy to navigate around. It's very plain, have you thought about changing the header background or adding some images on your blog? I would consider getting a logo designed, it doesn't have to be the most expensive either, you could ask in the graphics exchange here at Forum Promotion, we have many great designers on the board. Having a logo represents your blog and is your identity, so I feel having one is quite important.

Blog Layout and Categorization - (Out of 20)
You have one category so far, but being open for only 4 days it's good. All your reviews so far are placed in here, so they are easy to find. The blog post layout is quite nice and easy to read, that is good as it's the first thing users will start reading when they access your blog. You can visibly see the time/date it was published, who wrote it and the number of comments. I also quite like the 'more...' link, which is definitely a good thing as it gives readers an easier option to continue reading instead of scrolling back up to click the title.

Commenting Activity and Other Interactions - (Out of 20)
You already have two comments for each review you have written, that's not bad considering the time your blog has been online. all comments are at least five words long, this is great and it makes your blog look more professional. However, I would definitely promote your blog more to get even more comments.

Quality and Frequency of Posts - (Out of 20)
I definitely think for writing reviews on books they should be longer than what you've written. Both reviews are quite short and if you are writing them like that, I think you could publish more than just two in the space of four days.

Spelling/Grammar - (Out of 20)
I noticed some spelling mistakes in both reviews. Be sure to spell check each before publishing to the blog, it will make you look more professional and definitely attract more readers if they see you've taken the time to spell correctly. Although, the mistakes were minor and I can't find anything wrong with the grammar so far.
