If you're running Windows, you can also type charmap in the search box or at the run command and it will bring up a box and then you can select windings or webdings (or whatever). Select the character & click the copy button. The item will be in your clipboard.If you look, it will also give you the hex character code.
Thanks for posting all of this, Lisa Kay!!! Nice!!!
How do you do 1/2 stars, Lisa Kay?
Dhes, you mean a symbol of a 1/2 star or make it look like this ½ ? Have you seen a half star somewhere on GoodReads?
I thought I've seen the actual image of a 1/2 star somewhere in reviews, but I can't find it now.
I will, IF I do, thanks.
Well, I'd have to go hunting for 1/2 star reviews, so I'll just wait til one comes up again.
That's not the way I meant that, Dhes. I meant when you find one, not if you do. I guess what I'm saying is I was trying to be positive not pushy. :)
No worries, I understood. I was just thinking out loud, actually.
Phew! Good. :) You know, I was thinking I saw one once... about six months ago. Drat! Didn't know they were so rare, or I would have made note of it.
Between the two of us, we'll find one! Maybe it's nearly extinct and that's why they're hard to spot.
Extinct?! Ha-ha-ha! Nothing like telling it like it is!
Dhes and I are nothing, if not honest. ☺

Nice
Is there an identical heart in the other direction?
Just put your cursor/mouse up to the left (or right) of the star posted above to copy it. Click the left mouse key and hold down while moving the mouse until the star is highlighted. Then right mouse click to copy.
Or, if you type (most) everything in WinWord first (before posting to GoodReads) like I do, you can use the MS Gothic or Malgun Gothic fonts. To see what is available, use the "insert symbol" command. If you don't have it, here are some popular ones for you to copy.
Some more symbols for copying.

How to enter some of the symbols with the alt key combo.
Here is a link to the such as alt+3 for ♥ and alt+1 for ☺
Be sure to use your numeric pad (as the numbers on the top row of your keyboard won’t work) and turn your num lock on and your caps lock off!
alt key combo chart .
Notice, the symbol won't appear until after your release the alt key, as the number sequence can get into the thousands.
★ solid star = Alt + 9733
✩ star outline = Alt + 9734
Hope it helps.
