It is a good idea to write or at least to consider writing a book review or book notes after reading a book.

Regarding book reviews, here are clips from the movie Metropolitan

(http://ping.fm/aQT8o)

Key quotes:
“I prefer good literary criticism”: 5:20 to 6:15.
“For me, ceasing to exist is failure”: 2:25 to 3:00.
“Downward social mobility”: 3:00 to 4:15.
“It still means having your mother go out on dates”: 0:00 to 0:40.

The movie is chock-full of quotable moments.
