Well Tiktiki, it’s a bit complicated, I’ll try and explain in layman’s terms.
3 stars can mean one of 3 things.
1. It is very good book.
2. It’s not necessarily a good book but the timing was right and it appeared better than it actually is.
3. 3 stars look pretty, I like them.
2 stars.
1. I’m too flakey to commit either way.
2. I can’t really remember this book, I forgot it the instant I moved onto the next.
1 star.
1, It wasn’t very good.
2. It was terrible but I felt bad for the author.
3. I was in a ketchi mood.
0 stars.
1. It wasn’t worth taking the time out of my day to rate it.
2. I forgot to put stars in an am too lazy to rectify the situation.
Hope this helps love.
