[56/52] Surprised I finished Early!
After only reading 26 books in the last 10 years I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to do it (The last time I finished 52 in a year was 2014!) But I wanted to spend less time mindlessly scrolling social media, and I had a long commute on a bus so I started reading a bit and then fell back in love with reading with Philip K Dick, and I just haven't stopped. I found myself reading just stuff I KNEW I would like / love however and tried to branch out, but I haven't found anything I would rate 1* yet. I find myself critical of my own rating scale, how do you folks approach your rating system?
I've ordered the books in each tier from left to right in order of how much I enjoyed them that's why some things in a series are out of order. I put non-fiction after fiction.
