&lt;p>I&amp;rsquo;ll review this year read book posts and eventually all the past ones.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>In &lt;a href="https://www.goodreads.com/paapereira">Goodreads&lt;/a> I&amp;rsquo;ll continue to use stars, matching 5 starts with A+ and so on.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>Here&amp;rsquo;s my new logic for rating books:&lt;/p>
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>A+: A top rated book with a place in my favorite books ever. A book to re-read.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>A : Top rated book, really enjoyed reading it. I can see myself enjoying a re-read.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>B : Good book, good read. Recommended.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>C : I liked it, it was ok. Probably not my first choice to re-read or recommend.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>D : Didn&amp;rsquo;t really liked it.&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>

&lt;p>In the process of migrating my book library to &lt;a href="https://paapereira.xyz/posts/calibre/">Calibre&lt;/a> I also reviewed my rating process, all my rating in &lt;a href="https://www.goodreads.com/paapereira">Goodreads&lt;/a> and my &lt;a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/16853893-paulo-pereira?ref=nav_mybooks&amp;amp;shelf=top-100">top 100 shelf&lt;/a>.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>This is my new logic for rating books:&lt;/p>
&lt;p>★★★★★ - Fantastic book. A classic or a future classic. One of my favorite books.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>★★★★☆ - Really enjoyed reading this book. Easy recommendation and a very good book.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>★★★☆☆ - I liked it and it is a good, above average, book.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
