Perhaps if we stopped thinking of it as a review but more as commentary it would be helpful.

I completely disagree with that.
First, the site clearly states
Review, not commentary.
What is useful about a review for a non-existent book? What sort of review can you write about a non-existent book?
Wow, can't wait for the book to be written. Really looking forward to it. Its going to be the best ever #bestbook #can't_wait #love_you_stephanie
How do you explain the ratings on a non-existent book?
Yea, I gave it 5 stars because I know its going to be fantastic. #love_you_steph
Sorry, doesn't make sense.
IMDB and TMDB don't allow ratings or reviews until a movie has been released. They both give a status -
Pre-production, In-production, post-production etc
If Amazon can do it for IMDB, why not GoodReads.
I'll state it again...
It is wrong to be able to rate a book that does not exist.
It is wrong to be able to review a book that does not exist.
Of course this is my opinion, but how could it be wrong
