Sometimes I feel like a book is worthy of an extra half star, but I usually just end up rounding up since there's no real option to say "3.5" (unless I actually write it in). I do like the ratings system for the most part, though, because it's a quick and easy way to record my immediate thoughts/feelings on a book without really thinking about it too much. <br /><br />I had to laugh when you said you thought you'd only read 4 books since the last link-up because, well, that's a LOT more than 4 books! Haha. <br /><br />I'm adding the first three to my list, as well as Before the Fall. For some reason I thought I already had Before the Fall and All the Missing Girls listed, but I didn't. Maybe I saw them on Goodreads and forgot to add them at the time or something. Regardless, I'm glad your post reminded me to add them now! My Heart and Other Black Holes has been on my list for a while, so I'm glad to see it was pretty good.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14757174923718324262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071987159907366396.post-52092771368114813762016-04-12T14:06:17.684-04:002016-04-12T14:06:17.684-04:00Zero books in the hard no category, nice!
