Description

When I write a review of a book, I rate it in the review. However, I can also rate it separately. And they may turn out to be different. The final rating of a book is the arithmetic average.

It would be logical for one user to give one rating to one book. I mean, the database should store only the last book rating (from each user).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a uniqueness constraint on user and book fields in the rating model to ensure one rating per user per book, and update logic to store only the latest rating on review or separate action.
