Our Rating system

We like to have a little fun around here, below you find an outline for our rating system, everything is out of 5. Also you”ll often see we replace the star emoji for something that reflects the read.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐= Knocked my socks off. Will not stop talking about it. Have lost friends because I won’t shut up about it. Will take it personally if you do not stop what you’re doing and start reading it. Would actually read it again. A hot guy who is smart AND so pretty. A perfect cloudless 75 degree day.

⭐⭐⭐⭐= Knocked only one sock off. Will more than likely follow/read everything by the author and will keep a copy on my bookshelf. Chai tea on a cool crisp autumn afternoon.

⭐⭐⭐= Neutral; did not lose any socks over this book and will be wishing I got it at the library instead of purchasing. An average piece of work. If it were an ice cream flavor, it would be vanilla.

⭐⭐= Wouldn’t recommend to someone I like. Overall meh feeling on this one.

⭐ = Waste of time, VERY close to not finishing it but my parents didn’t raise a quitter. Will mourn the loss of time that could’ve been spent reading something else. Kissing someone with bad breath.
