- About My Library
- I read quite a wide variety.
When rating a book, I do use half and quarter stars, as I like to "rank" books in comparison to each other. As a general rule, though:
2 stars = I didn't like it
3 stars = it was o.k.
3.5 stars = it was good/I liked it
4 stars = I really liked it
I do rank things, though, so you might also see 3.25, 3.75, 4.25 stars, etc. - About Me
I'm a librarian in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I have three cats and I volunteer with rescue cats.
My current three cats are: Kells (~13 years old), Malaina (Lainey, 12 years old), and newly adopted Gretel (9 years).
RIP Angel (1999 - Oct 2015)
RIP Io (Feb 2003 - July 2023)
