I find that Amazon reviews are mostly helpful to know if the ebook has some technical issues, like bad formatting, bad OCR, or missing text.

In general, I prefer Amazon to Goodreads. Too many reviews on Goodreads are filled with images and memes due to the social nature of the site. Look at the reviews for a popular book that is on sale right now:
The Shining Girls. Okay. The top review is a silly one by Stephen King and that is pretty badass. But then look at that second 'review' by someone named Karen. That is why I don't use Goodreads much.
