Hi Reginah,

You can cite a book review in the same way as you would cite another article published in the same format (e.g., a magazine article for a review published in a magazine). You just need to add some information about the book being reviewed in brackets after the title of the review. For example:

Santos, F. (2019, January 11). Reframing refuge children’s stories [Review of the book We are displaced: My journey and stories from refugee girls around the world, by M. Yousafzai]. The New York Times. https://nyti.ms/2Hlgjk3

Hi Laura,

Sources that your readers won’t be able to access, such as a confidential report like what you describe, are cited as personal communications. They should just be described in parentheses in the text, not included in the reference list.
