That's understandable. As for Goodreads ratings, if I know I like/want to read or don't like/don't want to read a book then I don't pay much attention but I do find them helpful for books I'm iffy on. Besides people I know or of course MR, I think Goodreads is probably the most reliable place to find out what others in general think about a book. If I'm uncertain on one I usually look at the rating while considering whether the average rater for that book might have similar tastes as me and also read a few reviews on the site to help decide (and, I've begun to read more previews).
