    I tend to read relatively easy books and authors, although slowly trying to expand recently. The hardest of my personal favorites are just Fahrenheit 451/Demon Copperhead, so they’ll be the 10 on my scale.

    My easiest favorites would be Ender’s Game/Harry Potter, so they’re 1s on my scale.

    So, compared to those, I’d place other books I loved as:

    * 2: Never Let Me Go, Flowers for Algernon. *Both effortless to read.*
    * 2.5: Cobra book 1 by Timothy Zahn. *Similarly effortless, but action scenes were hard to visualize.*
    * 3: House of the Scorpion, Mistborn.
    * 4: Anna Karenina, Schwartz translation *(mainly because the kindle’s dictionary made the vocabulary a non-issue and I found before reading that each character has three names. The book felt surprisingly effortless to read in its sentence structure and flow)*.
    * 6. It *(due to how dense it could get)*.
    * 8. Children of time. *Though I read it without the Kindle dictionary, which could be inflating my score*.
    * 10. Fahrenheit 451/Demon Copperhead: *Both demanded a lot of attention to read*.

    What about the rest of you? If you made your own reading difficulty scale based off your favorite or 5-star books, where on the scale would you place each title?
