Bookborn | The problem with star ratings (and why I use them anyway) @Bookborn | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Look apparently there are ~opinions~ on giving books star ratings. So today I do a dive into why people hate star ratings but why we all use them anyway (and why I still like them). My audio is a little weird in this video so sorry about that - some loud children and bumping my microphone halfway through will do that. As always, let me know what you think in the comments!
