This website is a place for me to record and share the experiences that have delighted, moved, and influenced me.

After I watch a film, listen to an album, etc., I try to take a pulse on how it made me feel. My rating is a shorthand for how much it means to me (not an objective evaluation).

The scale is skewed at higher ratings. I think there's more value in being able to distinguish between an impactful book and a life-changing one than between an okay book I wouldn't recommend and an unpleasant book I wouldn't recommend.

Any thoughts I share about a work assume that you’ve experienced it yourself before reading. By default, they’re hidden behind spoiler blocks, but you can them reveal them by clicking on them.
