I did a little mini analysis of all the books I've marked as read on GoodReads to date, and looked at my star ratings on the scale of 1 to 5 (they still don't let you do 1/2 stars which annoys me!), to see what my rating style is. Here's what I came up with:
That sounds about right to me. I try to reserve the 5-star for only the books that really wow'd me, but I also feel like I have for the most part been able to avoid duds. Most are in that middle range, which I would describe as between like (3-star) and really like (4-star), with 5-star being loved.
5 star: 11%
4 star: 66%
3 star: 21%
2 star: 2%
1 star: 0% (only 1)
