Books I’ve Reviewed (list)

Ironjaw's book review

My reviews are personal and not conventional in the strictest sense containing interesting tidbits that help me remember the key points with some fun.

As my time is limited, I have decided to keep my book reviews at a strict one sentence: A sentence on the story and the rest, if possible, on the production details, revisions, editions, translations, publications and illustrations matter a lot to me than a review of the story. I keep this and further information under the “Comments” section in my Librarything.com catalogue. I rate books up to 5 stars.

Oh and another thing: I don’t read bad reviewed:

“Life’s too short for bad literature.”

I keep myself to the classics, non-fiction, history, biography, poetry, and anything on Ancient Greece and Rome. That’s why I trust the Folio Society with their selection. But as I read a lot, I keep my reviews short. I would rather use my time reading.

Books reviewed on Faisel K’s Reading Sancturary are from my personal collection – unless otherwise stated.

Books are rated on a 5-star scale as follows:

★☆☆☆☆ Don’t bother
★★☆☆☆ Alright
★★★☆☆ Very Good
★★★★☆ Excellent
★★★★★ A Must Read
▪️ My Favourites

Below is a list of the respective reviews. Enjoy:
