RATING SYSTEM

My rating system grants "Magic Books" on a scale of 1 to 5 as follows:

1 Magic Book = Poor Rating, based on lack of grammatical accuracy, flagrant typos, bad formatting and or poor support of plot or thesis. Difficult to read through due to trip-ups in the flow of the text caused by the aforementioned flaws.

2 Magic Books = Fair Rating, based on a reasonably good read that with improvement could gain luster. Ability to read through in a sitting was OK. In a case like this I might also include in my review suggestons for improvement.

3 Magic Books = Good Rating, based on a nice flow of words, balanced with good grammar, formatting, and a fairly solid theme or storyline. Reads well with a hint of magic.

4 Magic Books = Very Good Rating, based on evidence of language and voice mastery, good grammar, formatting, and a well laid out theme or storyline. Reads well and has a commendable amount of magic in that it propells the reader onward.

5 Magic Books = Excellent Rating, based on a superb mastery of language, excellent handle on voice, character, exceptional grammar, formatting, and a bulletproof plot, or in the case of nonfiction, theme support. The book has true magic in that the reader cannot put it down.
