people like y'all are fucking up the rating system and it's triggering me. it's possible to adjust for plebs under- or overrating a book but not some people using an entirely different rating system. rating masterpieces three stars because you didn't have a transcendental experience reading them on a particular occasion or because it doesn't speak to you on whatever personal level is bullshit.

Everyone rates their own way. Like I rate based on if I'd recommend it. 1-2 for variations of not recommended, 3-4 for light/strong recommendation, and 5 for whatever subjective thing I really like. Cuts out the bullshit of scoring it like a quiz grade. And it cuts out the arguments of "but why is x this score but y isn't" and it circumvents the temptation to judge a book in relation to other books by the same author. And in the end it's just an arbitrary score for fun.
If you a real nigga you write reviews.

I only rate for my own use, not for the good of the community.

I need some way to record the fact that The Odyssey isn't as good as The Iliad so I give it four instead of five stars. This doesn't mean I think it's objectively worse than some juicy bit of pulp I rated five stars.

>1. If you have any books by Young Adult authors, we're not going to get along. If you have more than one, reconsider what you're doing with your life.

>2. I strive towards being a nice person, not a slave of ideology (shniffs). Learn the difference.

>3. If you dictate how people should use language, I'm going to assume you have some variation of major insecurities, cause you can't obviously defend your opinions and resort to linguistic fascism.

>4. I am not striving to be "well-read" and don't really care if a book is by a man or a woman.
