All but two of the Groupreads fits this task. The exceptions are The Invention of Wings and Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End

Thanks for suggesting this task, Cory. I had some books to read for my library book groups that didn't fit any of the other tasks.

I felt the same way, Elizabeth. One of my Southern Lit books has a rating of 4.01, and I'm hoping someone else gives it a lousy review before I read it in January!
My thoughts exactly, having just finished a book with the rating of 4.06 :D
Please can you advise what I should do about this book Death of an Ancient King, which is the designated BOM in another GR group? It appears to have a rating of 3.94, but there is also this Death of an Ancient King, which has a rating of 4.00.
First, Lagullande, all copies should be combined. I did that. The result was that the most popular edition has a rating of 4.00.

The average rating I have given in all my Goodreads rating is 3.40, so I’m a little wary when books have over 4.0 or under 2.0. A lot of good books end up with ratings between 3 and 4 stars, so read a book that has higher than a 3.0 rating AND lower than a 4.0 average rating.
