Notes:
- The books in this list are rated using the Goodreads scale: 1 star – I didn’t like it; 2 stars – It was okay; 3 stars – I liked it; 4 stars – I really liked it; 5 stars – It was amazing.
- I tend not to practice “relative rating,” or trying to rate a book compared to how I rated other books. I rate it based on the way I felt about it after reading.
- Some of the reviews linked here are just short comments or insights rather than full reviews.
