These are often in flux. See History[@rev] of this and other pages to see the description I used.

My general philosophy is around whether I would suggest it to others and a "yes/no/maybe" scale (or thumbs up/down/middle). My baseline rating is 3 stars.

Stars Description Yes/No/Maybe Thumbs
★☆☆☆☆ I didn’t enjoy this book, would actively discourage others from reading it, and have no interest in reading more from this author. Strong No 👎👎
★★☆☆☆ I didn’t enjoy it much, wouldn’t recommend it, and would hesitate to read more from the author, but might give them another chance. No 👎
★★★☆☆ It was an okay read with some enjoyable parts, but I wouldn’t actively recommend it or seek out more from the author but would also give them another shot. Maybe 👈 (or 👎👍)
★★★★☆ I liked it, would comfortably recommend it to the right people, and would gladly read more from the author. Yes 👍
★★★★★ I loved this book, will enthusiastically recommend it, and will eagerly seek out more from the author! Strong Yes 👍👍
