My Rating System:

1 – Hated the book. 

Couldn’t get into the book. Couldn’t connect with the main characters. The plotline was awful and I couldn’t follow. Zero potential in the book, if a series. Would not recommend. Would not read anything else by the author

2 – Didn’t like the book.

Couldn’t get into the book. Couldn’t connect with the main characters. The plotline was borderline awful and I could barely follow. Could see potential in the book, if a series. Would not recommend. Would read other books by the author but with great hesitation.

3 – The book was OK.

Could get into the book but it was a struggle. Could connect with one main character. The plotline was OK and for the most part, I could follow. Could see potential in the book if a series. On the fence about recommending. Would read other books by the author with hopes that they are better.

4 – Liked the book.

Could get into the book. Could connect with both main characters. The plotline was good and I could follow. Could see potential if books are a series. Would recommend. Would read other books by the author.

5 – Loved the book.

Got immersed in the book. Became very attached to the main characters. The plotline was fantastic and I could follow. Definite potential if books are a series. Would recommend. Would read other books by the author.

I mainly rate books 3’s or 4. 1, 2, and 5’s are rare.

Child: Under the age of 10.

Tween:  For the ages between 10-13

Young Teen: For ages 13-16.

Older Teen: For ages 16-21

Adult: Ages 21 on up.
