All ratings are out of 5 stars, based purely on the subjective enjoyment of reading the book. Sometimes I enjoy a book more on the second read, and sometimes less, so the star rating might not reflect my original experience with the novel.

• no rating – the work isn’t a novel, or if it is, I didn’t read enough of it to rate it.
• 0 stars – do not read the book under any circumstance.
• 1 star – only read the book if you are a huge fan of the author and don’t mind being disappointed.
• 2 stars – read it if you want, but don’t blame me if you hate it!
• 2.5 stars – totally average.
• 3 stars – put it on your list for future books to read, or pick it up if you find a copy second hand.
• 4 stars – go out of your way to buy it and read it.
• 5 stars – buy it new right now and read it twice.
