Welcome to the Curmudgeon's Corner Book reviews.
This scale started as a joke, but seemed to gain some kind of legitimacy, which is a never-ending source of bemusement to me, but after many many weeks of being bugged about it, I started this blog to aggregate my ratings.
I read a lot of books on Kindle Unlimited, so most of these books will be available through KU.
Now hopefully if I give a book a poor rating I don't get an author being butt-hurt in the comments, but his rating is just my opinion and if you write a book and I don't like it just means I don't like it. Doesn't make it bad, just not to my taste. So man up and accept that people are different.
Oh yeah, and I am probably not going to be terribly PC, so there's that. You have been warned.
Curmudgeon scale
· 1 star: Caused me physical pain, and possibly injury. Did not finish. Will avoid further works by the author. Proceed with extreme caution, and possibly liberal alcohol.
· 2 star: Did not cause me physical pain, but still did not finish. Probably won’t give the author another chance.
· 3 star: Finished, but question whether or not that was wise. May or may not give the author another chance. Reading the sequel is 50/50
· 4 star: Finished it. Decent. Will probably read the sequel
· 5 star: Finished, enjoyed it thoroughly. Highly recommended.
· 5+ star: Rare rating where the book rates at the top of the 5 scale If you don't read this you probably hate fun.
