You should plan to have a number of sections for your literature review and the larger sections will have subsections. Consider all the pieces that lead up to your topic and create an outline from those pieces. Consider the flow by determining if you will use a chronological or funnel format. Do not forget to include an introduction and conclusion section. Your outline should conclude with an obvious need for your study.
