Abstract of the book "Rating"
In the era of global networks, ratings have become paramount. The higher the rating, the higher the floor, the cleaner the air, the healthier the food, the better the living conditions. If you are outside the network and the ratings, you do not exist. Or, on the contrary, do networks tie your hands and limit your opportunities?

sergii-orianec17.06.2025, 16:25World of Likes and Points. Review of the book "Rating" by Tetiana Hyshchak (full text, 199 pages). As part of Tetiana Hyshchak's Endless Marathon. The plot is dynamic, with emotional twists. The characters are vivid and well-rounded, and the dialogues feel authentic. The author's style is cinematic, easy to read, and the descriptions evoke vivid visual imagery. https://booknet.ua/blogs/post/399467
dijez-algo24.04.2025, 13:03The work initially gives the impression of a short story about a virtual trap, where the hero is imprisoned by his own desires and cannot escape on his own because he cannot overcome himself. And perhaps that was the original plan. But later, larger-scale events unfold based on this work. A world of the future, with its problems of overpopulation and resources, the absence of social mobility, and control handed over to AI. And contrary to the tradition established in sci-fi works, AI is portrayed more as a positive factor. And of course, it’s about change. There are no sharp antagonists or clichéd solutions here, which makes the work more interesting. The text also doesn’t feel dry, thanks to the "alive" characters and descriptions. This is quality science fiction—both in terms of plot and the language of the work. In my opinion, the question of AI has long moved beyond the framework of "machine rebellion," and the question of "what is consciousness and soul" is more relevant than ever. These questions are touched upon here, though they are not placed at the center. I definitely liked the work. Did it evoke admiration? - No, because it didn’t surprise me with anything radically new. The first characteristic that comes to mind is "good old sci-fi." But I’m hopeful for the future)) because there are all the reasons to be....

radomir-ukrayinskii10.12.2024, 18:02Hello! I read your work "Rating". In one word, interesting) Here's the review: https://booknet.ua/blogs/post/385968
uma-raposa10.07.2024, 09:23Thank you for the work. And once again - I really liked it) My review is on my page) I don’t write too detailed because I’m terribly afraid of spoiling. Let every future reader experience the full range of emotions themselves)) https://booknet.ua/blogs/post/378342
eliza-doncova14.04.2024, 00:46Wonderful story! I posted a review on my blog https://booknet.ua/blogs/post/374844 Despite some points mentioned there that seemed negative, your book is simply amazing!)
katerina-lilik11.10.2023, 06:58A nice story with a magical ending. I liked how the relationship between Sasha and Tina develops. And in my opinion, the moment of Tina's maturation, their rejection of ratings, and on the other hand, Mashka's depression in the background, is really something. And I'm leaving a link to the review on the blog here https://booknet.ua/blogs/post/367000

I've finished reading. Thank you. Extremely interesting. The only thing that could compete with your novel is perhaps the war between Israel and terrorists, and even that not for long. I'm processing what I've read and will write a review.
jeva-romik09.10.2023, 15:43Tetyana Hyshchak, I agree about the war of the worlds, and I have no doubt the wine will be good :)

Good afternoon. I finally started reading. I deliberately didn’t open the previous review so as not to spoil my perception. And I already have my first impression. The annotation is wonderful! Concise, to the point, I’m even a bit jealous. :):):)
tetiana-gishhak06.10.2023, 15:28Eva Romik, I wish you to enjoy reading)

katerina-kolesnik12.04.2023, 10:54Hello! This is the second time I've come across your book, and I'm glad I remember what it's about :) The plot is really cool. I love reading similar genres: about class inequality and heroes who try to overcome it. As I expected, it got even more lively and interesting further on. You make me think about what is truly important in our lives. Thank you so much for that!
tetiana-gishhak12.04.2023, 11:50Kateryna Kolesnyk, If the reader remembers what the book is about, that's already something)) Thank you! I try to avoid clichéd plots. Although, perhaps, similarities between my works and some other pieces can be found with enough reading experience, but I'm saved by the fact that my own reading experience isn't extensive, and I'm simply unaware of the analogs)
niubi-raiter11.04.2023, 17:58Congratulations on the marathon! I’m already familiar with this work because I read the first part earlier. Now I’ve managed to get through the second part as well. And I think I’ll continue reading. The story is truly captivating. A futuristic future, division by rating, life on different floors with privileges for the higher caste. The relationships between classmates, who compete to increase their rating for popularity or to win over a desired guy, are shown in an interesting way. The author reveals all of this as unnecessary fuss, allowing us to understand that there are much more important things. The characters are vivid and genuine. Each has their own personality and ambitions. The plot is also quite interesting and unusual, despite the existence of similar themes in futuristic books. I can only wish you inspiration for new achievements, new books, and loyal readers!!!
