Rating System

(I'm going to have a little fun here.)

If you're wondering how I feel about a book when I give it a certain rating, I have taken the trouble of compiling a small guide for you. :)

1 out of 5-Get out of my sight! You're ruining the view.

2 out of 5-Not really bad, but not good. May produce this reaction after reading. 

source

3 out of 5-Not too good, not too bad. Acceptable. Okay.

source

4 out 5-Slightly flawed. But in the end,

Comes close to perfect, but not quite. (source)

5 out of 5-I know there's no such thing as "perfect," but . . . 

So don't ever leave me, or I would be reduced to saying  . . .

source  for both

Also, when a review has an extra .5 or another decimal included, I would mention why I thought it deserved that extra point. Some older reviews may not have this.
