If you show excerpts and cited the book, it is obvious you are crediting the book, and it is not plagiarism. You are not claiming the passages from the book are your own writing, and it is "fair use" (the legal term) to cite passages from a book verbatim in the course of critiquing the book.

You don't have to worry about it. You can include segments of reasonable length (some paragraphs, usually, not chapters or whole scenes) to illustrate the critiques you are making.
