Book Reviews

My book reviews are usually not as eloquent or put together as some book bloggers, but they will be informative and I guess heartfelt. I usually just write what comes from my head and hardly proofread, which is bad. If you’re not a “grammar nazi” then my reviews are usually detailed and ALWAYS contains SPOILERS! So be warned, these will include the ending of the books.

My Rating System:

DNF: Did Not Finish
1 Star: Finished, but hated the book
2 Stars: Not bad, but won’t continue with the series
3 Stars: Good. Maybe I’ll check the other books in the series
4 Stars: Very Good and I intend on continuing with the series
5: Excellent! I couldn’t put the book down and thought about it for days

Starting May 2016: For Cozy Mysteries I’ve decided to write reviews in bulks since they are basically short and quick reads with similar characters all throughout the series, so I don’t think I need to go into extensive details when reviewing them. The first book will be written separately since it is the introductory book and everything is established there. Plus, the first book is usually my basis of sticking to a series.
