As I just explained on bitbucket: Book review item type mapped to journalarticle narrows our options because it only allows us to cite reviews in journals. Instead, we could add "reviewed author" and "reviewed title" to Journal Article, Magazine Article, and Newspaper Article. This way the review citation will be formatted correctly for each source, and the basic information required for citation will be included. I cite reviews in magazines such as London Review of Books as often as I cite them from Journal of American History. Bruce is right that for other reasons researchers would prefer knowing other info (publisher etc.), but I think that could wait for the future hierarchical structure.
(reviewed author is in Zotero and CSL, reviewed title in CSL)
Also necessary for APA style are "Reviewed Medium" and "Reviewed Date".
For example, the part in brackets: Axelman, A., & Shapiro, J. L. (2007). Does the solution warrant the problem? [Review of the DVD Brief therapy with adolescents, produced by American Psychological Association, 2007]. PsycCRITIQUES, 52(51). https://doi.org/10.1037/a0009036
reviwed-author: American Psychological Association reviewed-title: Brief therapy with adolescents reviewed-medium: DVD reviewed-date: 2007
In anticipation of a hierarchical model, we could already add support for book reviews with a bookReview item type (mapped to journalArticle in CSL), with the necessary additional fields, e.g. "Reviewed Title", "Reviewed Author", "Reviewed Editor", "Reviewed Issued" and "Reviewed Publisher" (these fields require new variables in CSL).
