Scoring Forms

These forms have not been updated to reflect the new nomenclature for the Tech section: Grammar.

The scoring docs on this page are NOT for actual book evaluations. If you’re scoring a book, please return to the reviewers’ page and look for your genre.

We recommend that you look at these scoring forms before you start reading a book so you’ll know what areas you’ll be evaluating. You can also print and use a copy for note-taking as you read each book.

Subgenres marked with an asterisk are not currently in use.

Click on the scoring form name to open each section.
