January 2010

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.
