Time 2 Read: My Ratings
http://mytime2read.blogspot.com/p/my-ratings.html
U S Presidents Project. Dislike; I shouldn’t have wasted my time. Ok, but just barely; flawed but not a total waste of time. 9733;★★. Liked it, but pretty average; not a book with a major impact on me. 9733;★★★. Liked it a lot; will definitely recommend to others. 9733;★★★★. Loved it; among the best I’ve ever read. I also give half stars to bump a book up if I think it is better than the star level indicated but not good enough to be bumped to the next star level. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 1 of 55 (1%).
