Ahoy 👋 Only listing books I have actually read. My aims in using Bookwyrm are: 1. to enable asynchronous book clubs (i.e. swap read-lists, see if anything has already been read, discuss) and, 2. to prompt me to write reviews, to consolidate learning.
Ratings are for future me, not universal judgements 🕊️ Approximate meanings: * ★☆☆☆☆ Terrible. I regret taking the the time to read this. * ★★☆☆☆ Bad. Would rather have been meditating/running. * ★★⯪☆☆ Pass. Just worth reading, not more. * ★★★☆☆ Good. Worth reading, even if only once. Not much more to say. * ★★★⯪☆ Very good. Some notable form or content. Lasting impact, if small. * ★★★★☆ Excellent. Grateful that someone took the effort to write this, sad to think that certain other people might not read. * ★★★★⯪ Outstanding. Unlocked new perspectives on life, released new emotions, will re-read or reference in future. * ★★★★★ — (Not giving this to anything because I'm a Bayesian.)
