I was wondering about that too ^^ But I dont give 5***** that easily, only for those who really really deserve them and those are few.

~~But yes, the first five books of my votes (actually the first six) probably deserves 5***** :) and the rest are more like 4,5 and not really 4 stars only~~

You got me now MJ.

1-5 would be really 5*****
6-10 are 4,5****
11-12 are 4****

that would be more correct

I rate plenty DA titles 4 since they often hinge on an experiment cohering/working or not. Naturally I give 'em all five for brass and orignality, in my soul . . .
