5 Books : highly recommended
This book did exactly what it set out to do, with originality, style, and maybe even a twist. It stands out next to popular, traditionally published novels in its genre.
4 Books : recommended
For the right audience, this book is a great read. It can hold its own against any traditionally published novel in its genre.
3 Books : pretty good
Sure, there were some issues, but it was still worth the read.
2 Books : needs work/not ready for publication
This book might have promise, but it is in need of a rewrite and/or extensive editing. We try to weed these out before they even get to a reviewer, but sometimes they still get find a way through.
1 Book : unacceptable
We don’t like to hand out 1 star ratings, and rarely have to, but will if necessary. Like 2-star ratings, we try to weed these out before they even get to a reviewer. These novels are unprofessionally written and presented. They are systemically flawed on multiple levels, to include (but not limited to) plot, prose, characters, theme, and basic editing.
