Correct. Short summary is just one or max 2 helpful sentences about the
book. And it should not contain personal editorial comments. Be as
factual as possible.

This is supposed to be a short summary. If you include "idea taken from
Amazon.com" it will cut into your allowed summary length. Amber do you
