Ok, honestly SE that should be a comma not a period. That is definately too long of a pause.

Book doesn't look that great, but I liked the review, SE.  You do a good job at this.  Also, I really like how you manipulate that little format I came up for my book reviews--you get across a lot of very useful information in the 'Continuity' and 'Setting' sections, and that lets me skim and easily get a feeling for what the book is like.
