I've changed my rating system a few times. I've found though that using stars, 1 being the worst, and 5 being the best is the best system to use.
My rating system:
 |
| Stupendous! Add to your To Be Read List right away! |
 |
| A great book! Definitely add it to your To Be Read list! |
 |
| A good book. Add it to your To Be Read List, and eventually get to it. |
 |
| An okay book. Might be worth adding to your To Be Read list. |
 |
| Horrible book. I do not suggest it to anyone! |
