Figure it like this. Suppose you see a book on Amazon that looks interesting, so you "look inside" to check out the first few pages. They're not to your taste. Do you post a review?

If a book is not to my taste simply because I didn't like the story, no, I wouldn't post a review. If, however, it was not to my taste because of the type of issues that you describe then I probably would, because I'd want to warn other potential readers. Particularly if the problems didn't show up in the normally very limited preview that you get. I've
posted many reviews warning people of poor grammar or obvious lack of proofreading.
