Reading is cool. Knowledge is power and all that bullshit.
Here I review books I’ve read this year and rate them as follows:
1/5: I would not wish this book on my worst enemy.
2/5: Painful to get through.
3/5: Just ok. Maybe a compelling plot but subpar writing.
4/5: Great book. I would recommend to a friend.
5/5: Blew my mind. Jerked a tear or two.
Pending review…
