If it's a ARC or free copy in exchange for a review you are required to let the public know if you write a review that you didn't buy the book. I only do these ever so often. Goodreads is a mess. I only use it to keep track of what I've read. The ratings are reviews are too disorganized for lack of a better word. I use Amazon and I read the low rated reviews first and work my way up. It has never failed me in finding a good read. I stay away from five stars. I want tough reviewers who aren't afraid to tell the truth.
