In your opinion, you mean. I've spent years curating a group of reading friends there whose tastes, likes and dislikes are well known to me. Their opinions on books I'm considering prove quite invaluable. Everyone's mileage will vary, of course. But these unilateral pronouncements of what is useful or not grow increasingly tiresome.
Quite simply put: if it was useless, no one would be using it.
