Points of my review

I just wanted to break down how I plan to do my reviews. I'm writing for those who plan to read these books, so I wont give away a lot of the plot.
Don't you hate it when you read the back of a book and it gives away the entire story? So much for surprises...
I try to break each review into three parts
1, the basic plot
2, the characters (this section can either be the strong or weak points)
3, this section can be strong or weak points depending on the characters

Then just a summing up and a rating from one to five stars.
* Horrible/Not worth reading
** Potentially good/shows promise
*** Good/worth reading
**** Exceptionally good
***** The best I've ever read

I might put more information of the plot if I find it's crucial in pointing out how the book is either good or bad. If I can tell the worthiness of the book in another way, such as just by looking at the characters, then I will instead. I might change this pattern, but for now it seems to working.
