In a review you should write about these three pillars of a story

* **Grammar:** Grammar is very important in a story because without it there would be no story.
* **Story:** This can be a make or break for any fic. If the story is dull, people would turn away and find another fic to read. This is the most important in any fic

**Note:** You can post more sections in a review but these three are required.
