I sent him the book to write a review [on].

[navi tasan]

Which is correct:
1) I sent him the book to write a review.
2) I sent him the book to write a review on.

I know that the rule that says: "Sentences that end wiht prepositions should be frowned upon." is not valid.

I am not sure that '1' doesn't have the absurd meaning that the book is to write a review.

Which is correct:
1) I sent him the book to write a review.
2) I sent him the book to write a review on.

I think the second sentence is OK. Another way to put it would be 'I sent him the book on which to write a review'.

Use #2 or say, "I sent him the book so he could write a review on it."

Which is correct?

1) I sent him the book to write a review.
2) I sent him the book to write a review on.

I know that the rule that says no colon "Sentences that end wiht with prepositions should be are frowned upon no full stop" is not valid. I am not sure that '1' doesn't have the absurd meaning that the book is to write a review.

Note my corrections and comments above. If it's not important to make it clear that it's a written review, I'd say "I sent him the book to review".
