I have a rather small group that I discuss some books with but for the most part, I find that I do not agree with most of the people who review books. I've tried to read books that have been given a large number of favourable reviews and found that—for me—the books did not deserve those reviews.
Then we have the reviews on GoodReads for books that are not published and in many cases, will never be published. The last I found humorous had 12 5-star reviews and 9 4-star reviews for a book where the author had not yet started to outline the book. From their newsletter, they were working on another project so the series in which that book belonged had been back-burnered.
