There are several essential points that every oral book report should include:

• Genre (fantasy, thriller, ghost story, etc.);
• A plot (make a short summary of the main events, do not include too many details into your oral book report);
• Main characters (talk about each character briefly, give details about his/her appearance and personality. Tell about the relations between characters and some major changes they undergo throughout the novel);
• Setting (tell when and where the story takes place);
• Conclusions (tell what you like and dislike about the novel).
