I am using a five star system.
What do the different colors mean?
There are two different colors that I will use for my stars RED and PURPLE.
RED: THIS BOOK IS ON FIRE!!! This is the equivalent of an extra half of a star. For example, if I give a book ✪✪✪✪ (four red stars) I actually consider it to be a four and a half star book because I LOVED it, just didn't want to give it the full five. I will most probably read this book again at some point.
PURPLE: This book was great, it just didn't earn the extra half star. Although the story was wonderful, I may not feel the compulsion to re-read the book. So if I give a book ✪✪✪✪(four purple stars) the book would just be a four star review
What do the different number of stars mean?
✪✪✪✪✪ THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING. These books are the ones that I find myself wanting to go back to a day after I finish and fantasizing over possible conclusions and character developments. Very highly recommended.
✪✪✪✪ I LOVED THIS BOOK. It may have not delivered that extra zing that the five star books do, but will no doubt keep me up reading at night when I really should be studying. Highly recommended.
✪✪✪ This book was really interesting. Maybe the concept wasn't as fully developed or the writing just didn't connect with me, but these are still great books. Recommended.
✪✪ It was on okay book. I probably put this book down to finish others I found more interesting. Either the storyline really didn't connect, or I found the writing style distracting. Slightly recommended.
✪ I didn't like this book. I did not finish this book. The storyline did not interest me or was poorly put together and found the writing distracting as well. I wouldn't recommend this book.
