What are the stars for?
Any book that we've reviewed, we've assigned a star. The stars are used as our ranking mechanism, 4 being a "Best-Of" and 5 being a "Top-Pick". Keep in mind a few things, low stars don't mean the book isn't good, we try to be selective with our selection, so if it made this list, then it's worth the look.
 
So, why don't some have stars?
Simple, any books without stars are ones that we're currently reviewing. They made the list because they were recommended to us by qualified people, and we followed up with other sources and decided that it was worth a look. Once reviewed, the book will be assigned a ranking.
