Rules? Guidelines? Miscellaneous?
Somewhere, someway, someone established the idea of a rating system. I don't know about you but I don't think in terms of rating stuff. However, I guess I must if I'm going to review books, movies or anything else that strikes my fancy. What is a five star? How does a five star compare to a four star? I don't know. Wish I did, that would make a huge difference. I do know that even the five stars are far from perfect. If I have to make a distinction, a four star will get reread many times (sometimes hundreds of rereads because that's what I do) and a five star will get entire fantasies created for my brain's entertainment. If I read either a four or a fiver on Kindle, then I am probably putting a print copy on my wish list. A three star means "okay, I've read that. Nice. Interesting. Might read again when I've forgotten certain elements." If a three star is part of a series, I might or might not continue with the next book. A three-bie proba...
