Once you've settled on how to organize your literature review, you're ready to write each section. When writing your review, keep in mind these issues.
𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: 
A literature review section is, in this sense, just like any other academic research paper. Your interpretation of the available sources must be backed up with evidence [citations] that demonstrates that what you are saying is valid.
𝐁𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞:
Select only the most important points in each source to highlight in the review. The type of information you choose to mention should relate directly to the research problem, whether it is thematic, methodological, or chronological. Related items that provide additional information but that are not key to understanding the research problem can be included in a list of further reading. 
𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐐𝐮𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐲:
Some short quotes are okay if you want to emphasize a point, or if what an author stated cannot be easily paraphrased. Sometimes you may need to quote certain terminology that was coined by the author, not common knowledge, or taken directly from the study. Do not use extensive quotes as a substitute for your own summary and interpretation of the literature.
𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐲𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐳𝐞"
Remember to summarize and synthesize your sources within each thematic paragraph as well as throughout the review. Recapitulate important features of a research study, but then synthesize it by rephrasing the study's significance and relating it to your own work.
𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐎𝐰𝐧 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞:
While the literature review presents others' ideas, your voice [the writer's] should remain front and center. For example, weave references to other sources into what you are writing but maintain your own voice by starting and ending the paragraph with your own ideas and wording.
𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠:
When paraphrasing a source that is not your own, be sure to represent the author's information or opinions accurately and in your own words. Even when paraphrasing an author’s work, you still must provide a citation to that work.
