Sarah's System to Fair Rating
Originally from Tumblr (and credit to Kate), this chart is how Sarah now determines her rating system when discussing the different categories in each episode. It is a great way to assess your own reading reactions.
We use a 10-category system (10 points each) to rate and rank the books we discuss on the podcast. Each book can get 100 points from each of us for 300 points. The system was introduced in our 2023 episodes.
