Rating System

Here's a quick break down of our rating system.

Please note that often our ratings are almost secondary to our review. That is, we could give a book only 3 stars, but go on to explain in depth what worked and didn't, ending with a very positive review.

We will never post a NEGATIVE review on this blog. That is not how we work!

Now, that being said, we may, from time to time, complain about a book that was horrible or extremely WTF-worthy. We will never bash authors though. Some books simply do not work for every reader, and some are seriously crazy-sauce. If we read such a book, and feel that we should share our reading experience with you, it will most likely be in a different format, not an official review. For example, it could be a SnapShot or a Random Rant, etc.
