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?
You must log in or # to comment.
I usually read one or two reviews on Goodreads and take the average of the stars.
I’ll sometimes watch YouTube reviews to get a feel for the book.
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.
