I’m in the process of implementing a ratings system, inspired by Anastasia at Birdbrain(ed) Book Blog, which is as follows:
Rating: 
= Loved it!
Rating: 
= Liked it a lot.
Rating: = Not bad, but I probably won’t reread it.
Rating: = Mostly bad, but had some merit.
Rating: = Not very good, I didn’t enjoy it much.
Rating: = Did not finish, or so bad I had nothing nice to say about it.
