If your literature review feels sprawling, fragmented, or harder than it should be at this stage, this guide helps you bring it into shape.
You’ve likely already done a substantial amount of reading, note-taking, and drafting - but it’s not yet translating into a clear, structured, critical chapter.
This guide gives you a way to work with what you already have, so your literature review starts to come together as a coherent argument.
Inside, you’ll find 12 carefully sequenced sections with practical worksheets to help you:
Work more purposefully with the literature you’ve already gathered
Identify patterns and develop meaningful themes
Move from summary into clear, critical interpretation
Restructure your chapter so it holds together
Make confident decisions about what stays, what goes, and why
If you’ve ever thought:
“I’ve read so much, but I don’t know how to turn it into a chapter.”
“Everything feels relevant - I can’t see what actually matters.”
“I keep rewriting this, but it’s still not quite working.”
You’re not doing anything wrong, you’re at the stage where your thinking needs to be shaped into something more coherent.
This guide helps you do that.
Designed for qualitative PhD researchers working with thematic or narrative literature reviews, it supports you in moving from a collection of sources and notes to a literature review you can clearly explain, structure, and stand behind.
This is a digital download. You’ll get immediate access to the full guide and worksheets as soon as you purchase, so you can start making progress straight away.
Swipe through the images to see exactly what’s inside.
For a more streamlined and coherent approach, you can access all four PhD Survival Guides in the full series here.
