KNOW WHAT YOU’RE GETTING
Content-rated books so you can pick the ones that are right for you.


Why rate books?
Movies and video games have been rated for years—and for a very good reason. Different people have vastly different comfort levels when it comes to entertainment. But books have never been rated on a large scale, and readers often waste time and money on books with content that doesn’t match their preferences.
Rating books for content is more important now than ever, because society’s view of what’s acceptable has changed—but not all content is acceptable to everyone. Until now, there has been no way for the community to easily rate large numbers of books for content.
There are millions of titles out there that need to be rated, and the only way we can create this important resource is for all of us to contribute. So finish that book you’ve been reading and hop on over here to share the content rating with other readers!

How it Works
1. SUBMITTED RATINGS
MBR is a community effort. Anyone who has read a book can submit a rating for it. Even if a book has previously been rated, we still want to know how YOU rate it. Rating a book is as simple as answering guided questions about the book’s content.
2. OFFICIAL RATINGS
Some books may have an official My Book Rating. These ratings are assigned by our staff after carefully reviewing the book.
3. USE THE RATINGS
Use the ratings to find books you’ll love. You can see why a book received its rating, so you’ll know exactly what it contains and whether it’s right for you.
Meet the Ratings
Click or tap each rating to find out more about it. A book’s overall rating is determined by the highest level it attains in any of the content areas (violence, intimacy, horror, language), but that does not mean it contains all of the content in that rating. Each individual book has a label that will describe the actual contents for that particular book.
