That is one aspect of GR that irritates me! I don't understand why people give star reviews, good or bad, to unpublished books or why GR allows this. The response is usually that people who receive ARCs should be allowed to review it whenever they please. I get that. What I don't get is people giving reviews when the author hasn't even finished writing the book and hence, no one could have possibly read the book. I have seen this happen, especially with books by popular authors.
