For me, Scholomance stays incredible and is one of my favorite series. The commentary melds beautifully with the worldbuilding and magic system in ways that mutually pay off; and the character/power arcs are great.

I loved listening to you review the Grace of Wilde Things, there are so many points I agree with! I picked it up on a whim last year and I was just so delighted by the whimsy and the Anne of Green Gables (another favourite series of mine).

I also adore A Deadly Education,as well as the others in the Scholomance. I read the trilogy for the first time spring last year - and by autumn I was already doing a reread. I also love Temeraire but haven't read Novik's standalones yet.

I love this way of figuring out favourite authors. I'm tempted to try something similar and see what I get. You might cover it in favourite authors video you mentioned, but are there any authors that surprised you by scoring more points than you might have expected before you scored them.

That is a great question! I'll add it as a point in my favorite authors video 😀

So, when I'm making my video about my favorite authors, what do you want to know?

I highly recommend exporting your goodreads into a spreadsheet and then using the pivot table feature to collate the authors' ratings

The only author I can safely say is a favourite of mine is Jane Austen (1x 5*, 3x4* out of 7 total books), yet according to your score system only gets 0.39! That sounds weirdly wrong somehow. Also, I feel I would give a rating to a series as a whole rather than to individual books, but that's just me. (For example, I rated the Hunger Games books 4.5*, 4* and 3*, but the series as a whole is a 4* for me.)

So, doing the math for your Jane Austen reads, is that: One 5⭐, Three 4⭐, one 3⭐, two 2⭐? 1/3 + 3/8 - 1/15 - 2/8 = 0.39

If I used a system like yours, I think I’d make it asymmetrical, penalizing authors less for their bad books. Because I reread the good books repeatedly, whereas I read the bad books once at most, so they matter less to me.
