An opinion based on others' opinions is not an informed opinion based on facts. It is a second-hand opinion based on others' opinions. Perhaps those opinions are based on facts, or perhaps they are part of a campaign to tank a book's review ratings. If you do not read the book for yourself then you cannot be certain which is true. This modulo the opinions of people who you have reason to trust. I for one would not trust "reviews" with such obvious click-bait titles. YMMV.
I've stated my piece. Peace out.
