My Rating – My rating for the book on a 10-point scale. The rating is indicative of how well I enjoyed the book. I’m considering revising my ratings so that I can give half ratings (e.g., 8.5), but for now, enjoy the whole numbers. When reflecting back on books I’ve read, I will occasionally change a rating for a book, but for the most part, I try to keep the rating I gave the book directly after finishing it.
