i was going through the list of books i've read on this literary social networking site called goodreads, which is kind of fun and it is kind of fun remembering that you've read some of the books that you've forgotten you've read. and there is a function on the website where you rate the book from 1 to 5 stars and i realized that i almost never rate a book below three stars, which means that i like almost every book i have ever read, at least the ones i remember i have read. but i don't think that is the whole story, see, because i figured out that i wasn't rating the books i started and then put down, and if i like a book, i don't tend to put it down with some exceptions (gravity's rainbow, don quixote, finnegan's wake), so the books i would rate as one or two stars are books that i won't rate because i don't finish them. again though, that is not the whole story, because i don't put too many books down. i guess i like every book i pick up because i think that every book has something to offer if you're willing to pay attention.
