Book Review lets editors passionate about books, write and publish their own reviews in an easy manner, seamlessly integrated with the WordPress core.

There's a settings page where users can customize their plugin's preferences, and where a Google Books API key can be entered to automatically pull book details from Google's servers instead of having to manually enter them by hand.

To enter a review, editors must add a new blog post, where they'll find a special metabox at the bottom of their page, where all the book review details can be entered.

Once you have created multiple reviews and published them on your site, there's a shortcode you can use to publish a "Book Review Archive" page where your reviews can be shown either alphabetically or grouped by genres.
