When I have to start reading a book I want to know if it's good or garbage, so I like to read some reviews. I don't trust Goodreads, are there some alternatives?

I usually read one or two reviews on Goodreads and take the average of the stars.

I find reviews of books on Goodreads to be open and honest especially by users. I’m a frequent poster of reviews on books that I have read and try to be honest about them. If your really stuck you could always ask ChatGPT..!!

I use Goodreads mostly but I will agree the reviews are mostly miss so I use it primarily for tracking

I know this is a late reply but I read them on TheStoryGraph.
