Rating System
– As good as it gets.
– Must have.
– Good, definitely worth the read.
– I wouldn’t recommend it to read or purchase.
– Why bother?
Just a note. No matter how good a book is, if it has endnotes as opposed to footnotes, it will automatically lose a star. So for instance, some 4 star books are of 5 star quality, but having two book marks is inexcusable.
