Ratings

Here is a little description of my current system for ratings. I am doing a five-star method and also use halves.

• 1 - I wish I hadn't read it
• 2 - Not the best thing I've read
• 3 - Okay, but I wouldn't recommend it
• 4 - This was a good book
• 5 - This is one of my all-time favorites
  

Those give me a good idea of where it should be based on my feelings. Also, I have rated most every book I have read so I also rate by comparison. Was this book as good as that one? Worse?
I try to not artificially inflate the ratings, so although I know there are some awful books out there, I can only rate in relation to what I have read.

As always, feel free to disagree with any rating I give!
