First, your link as it is posted has one too many backslashes and is no good!.
Re: the reviews!. It's good in a review to leave out any endings to any book, which can be done while still telling the 'generals' about the book!. It seems you do this sometimes, but not always, even given only three reviews!.

Your writing needs some improvement, which is also not good for readers to see in a review!. You switch tenses from present (present tense is good to use here) to past and back again; you do it only a few times, but even those few times are too many for reviews!. You also seem to have a bit of trouble with comma placement and neglect a needed apostrophe at least once!.

When writing book reviews, the reviewer's writing must be accurate, grammatically correct, and well-done, besides being interesting!. Your writing is interesting but, for example, the second review gives away your position on the book before you review it!. That can be okay if it's not repeated, which in this case it is!.
I think the site looks good, clean, and the reviews are brief yet thorough enough (as long as no endings are given away, just hints) for a reader to want to use your reviews as a source to guide his/her own reading choices!.

I applaud your efforts and hope you continue!. Still, you must always keep in mind that revisions are necessary for any writer in any genre!.
It is often helpful, after a piece is finished, to have a trusted and educated 'mentor' (teacher/friend/family member/anyone-you-know who can do this) read the piece to check for errors writers often miss!.
Hope you keep it up!. You're headed in the right direction!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
