Book blogger hop

Hi welcome to my blog. I give reviews for the books that i read (multicultural, historical, thriller, contemporary and non-fiction) and spice up the blog with some interesting thoughts and snippets.

This weeks question is from : Books Are A Girl's Best Friend

Do you use a rating system for your reviews and if so, what is it and why?

Generally i try to rate the books that i own as a guide for those who would like to get a summary before getting the book themselves or as a comparison to what they thought about the book. I rate books over 5. I do not have any fancy rating system, just a simple one for now. But i love to check out how other bloggers glam up their ratings with cool buttons ans so on. It's really a great way to find new and wonderful books in other bookshelves. 

Hope you can check out my site here and give me some useful comments. I would love to have my very own blog button but i cant seem to get around doing it. =) Anyway thanks to Jennifer for hosting this blog hop.

cheers to all bloggers.
