How the rubric works
- Coverage (60 pts) — How many of the goals you picked this book actually treats.
- Depth (25 pts) — How central those goals are to the book — its spine versus a side chapter.
- Focus (15 pts) — How much of the whole book serves you, versus material you didn't ask for.
85+ is a direct hit, 55–84 a strong fit, anything above 0 is partial, and 0 means the book is in a different lane than the goals you picked. Depth is weighted by where your goal sits in the book's subject list — the first subject is its spine.
