Italics in Reviews

Some grammar rules (and embarrassing mistakes!) transcend the uniqueness of different regions and style guides. This new International Grammar section by OnlineBookClub.org ultimately identifies those rules thus providing a simple, flexible rule-set, respecting the differences between regions and style guides. You can feel free to ask general questions about spelling and grammar. You can also provide example sentences for other members to proofread and inform you of any grammar mistakes.

Italics in Reviews

Hello,

I just wanted to confirm if book series titles are italicized in reviews. For example: The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini.

Thank you.

Hi again,

So, I just want to make sure I understand. It is advised that I italicize the names of series titles, and I should consider it an error if a series title that is mentioned in a book that I am reviewing is not italicized?

I'm not a grammar expert, so I am moving this topic to the International Grammar Forum. :)
