Scoring Criteria

I have decided on a new criteria list with which to review books that I've read. Mostly because I read a lot of books and aside from putting a "*" next to them on my "Book List", I can't remember what I liked or disliked.

Brr, it's really cold in here. Stephen can only sleep when there are icicles forming on the ceiling. Blerg.

So here is my final evaluation criteria:
--

Ease with which to read/author style (5)

Suitable ending (5)

Personal favoritism (5)

Poetic language (5)

Memorable (5)

Original, creative plot (5)

Flowing, non-predictable plot movement (5)

Probability of recommendation (5)

Ability to "move" emotionally (5)

Literary value (5)

____

(50)

+ 4 sentence summary

And I will cut the scoring down to a "1 to 5" scale. So a final book review may come out to a "4.1" (41) etc.

I don't anticipate many books making it past a 4, but I've read some good ones lately. So we'll see. I may have to tweak the criteria to be more harsh.
