It’s hard to get a five-star rating. A lot of authors have signed on as well, and have specially configured pages that also allow them to blog. I’ve noticed, however, that authors do tend to assign five-star ratings, mainly to the books of their friends. But these readers are a discriminating lot. Members list their favorite books and reveal what they’re reading right now, and what they’ve just finished reading, and what they thought of it. They assign a star rating to each book, five stars being best. I have to say–and nobody’s paying me a penny to say it–I find the site really rather satisfying and, as an author, deeply reassuring, because it puts the lie to statements by doomsayers that THE BOOK IS DEAD.
