So after much consideration, which means one afternoon really. I decided to make my rating of books more systematized. Because it really needs to be a more defined way. So far I have done it not arbitrary but for opinion and not always following the same criteria for each of the books I read. So the plan is: 1. I want to consider several categories. Seven to be specific and they will be rated from zero to ten, with zero being the worst and 10 the best. 2. Then be averaged in order to get an overall value for the book. 3. The average value will be then be converted into the 1 to 5 star rating I normally use.

Title: The Sun is Also a Star Author: Nicola Yoon 368 pages (Even if I read the digital version) Date Published: November 2016 Book Description: Natasha: I’m a girl who believes in science and facts. Not fate. Not destiny. Or dreams that will never come true. I’m definitely not the kind of girl who meets a cute boy on a crowded New York City street and falls in love with him. Not when my family is twelve hours away from being deported to Jamaica. Falling in love with him won’t be my story. Daniel: I’ve always been the good son, the good student, living up to my parents’ high expectations. Never the poet. Or the dreamer. But when I see her, I forget about all that. Something about Natasha makes me think that fate has something much more extraordinary in store—for both of us. The Universe: Every moment in our lives has brought us to this single moment. A million futures lie before us. Which one will come true? My opinion: I loved it so very much. I have been reading Comtemporary...

Title: The Broker Author: John Grishman 422 pages/ 18 Chapters Date published September 2006 So another John Grishman book,this is his typical work a Thriller revolving around law and layers.  So the story goes like this: The US president tried running for reelection. Mr Morgan and Mrs Morgan toured the country looking for support. But in many of the places they visited the family made several mistakes that went from insulting the local sports team to bad mouthing the typical food from said places. Bad badbad for politics really. In other words, his family made it impossible for him to be reelected. In the last few minutes of his presidential mandate he gets a visit from the director of the CIA, Teddy Mynard, with a single request: To request the FULL PARDON of one Joel Backman. Funny fact: Preseident Morgan just lost the reelections. Morgan and Maynard hate each other's guts with a passion. CIA arguments that Backman went to jail without talking. He possess secrets that...

Title: Prodigy Author: Marie Lu 374 pages Date published: January 2013 It is the second book of the Trilogy Legend. So here we have June and Day after they escape from the escape from the execution. .... Well I have to admit Marie Lu is an awesme writer. The way things unravel in the story just makes you anxious, you MUST make it to the end. It is infuriating the way things go simultaneaously too slow and too many revelations at the same time. I just feel like we need to see how it unfolds in order to see really what is going on. Who is the right person to back? Is it the Patriots and Razor? Whom you feel  are hiding something? Is it the Elector.... or is he manipulating the situation?  It is confusing and alluring, you feel so conected to the story you feel their conflicting loyalties and beliefs as your own. So let's recap: After joining the Patriots and aggreeing to help them, they get their mission: Assasinate the Elector. Part one and two of the plan go perfect bu...

Title: Two by Two Author: Nicholas Sparks 497 pages / 167 chapter (read it online) This book was published in October 2016 so it's fairly recent in my opinion. Initially I went into it not kowing anything other than the title and the author's name. It was enough to get me in.  I was very wrong, not about picking up the book but it was definately not what I expected to find. My idea of the book : A romance novel, something fluffy and cute, a loving family story.  What I actually found was:  A story about a family since its aboutto be to the real deal, but it was clear something bad happens and the family shatters. But none the less I am already captured by it. From the very fist pages it offers a very sincere hindsight of what pregnancy and childlabor looks like from the father's perspective. It is filled with the anxiety and the poor choice making ability of a father to be mainly due to the fact that everything seems like its decided under duress. In most men's m...

Title: Skipping Christmas Author: John Grishman 198 apges/ 20 chapters because it was online Date published November 2001 Book description: Imagine a year without Christmas. No crowded shops, no corny office parties, no fruitcakes, no unwanted presents. That's just what Luther and Nora Krank have in mind when they decide that, just this once, they'll skip the holiday altogether. Theirs will be the only house on the street without a rooftop Frosty the snowman; they won't be hosting their annual Christmas Eve bash; they aren't even going to have a tree. They won't need one, because come December 25 they're setting sail on a Caribbean cruise. But, as this weary couple is about to discover, skipping Christmas brings enormous consequences - and isn't half as easy as they'd imagined. So I have enjoyed John Grishman's book the partner and it is one of my favorites, so this year I decided to read and start buying his books because I generally enjoy ...
