Yeah but like I meant, I don’t know the difference between ‘really liked it’ and ‘amazing’!



No other sadness in the world would do

don't use good reads anymore personally but to us the difference between 4 and 5 stars is like,

would we be happy owning this book and rereading it over and over again and will not let it go from our brain = 5 stars

vs

did we really enjoy it and really like it but happy enough to move on = 4 stars


honestly it's subjective and it's up to you to differentiate which is also why we don't bother anymore and gave up on putting a bunch of stock in reviews also


anyways, we did get the how to adhd book from our library so looking forward to at least skimming through it if nothing else since we really find her youtube channel helpful



Please do not give me virtual hugs unless you are only using the hug function on threads. Thanks.


You can't always keep it separate.

I gave this 2 stars (it was ok) but it was actually rubbish. It was like a children's story but with too much swearing and the twist wasn't surprising.

Interested to know what you think Lindsay as I bought this for my holiday last year but never got around to reading it. I have it on my bedside chest of drawers. I have only read one murder mystery author but do enjoy them on the telly.

I gave this 3 stars (liked it) but don't think I liked it enough to read the rest of the series.
