I like LibraryThing for book reviews (http://www.librarything.com). There you get real readers. Amazon seems to have a lot of people who want their 5 minutes of fame by posting the most outrageous remarks possible.

Thanks for the tip! Gee...in my experience, virtually every time I have gone to Amazon, looked up a book, and scrolled down to the reviews, I have ONLY gotten reviews of the book..no inappropriate comments at all (since I only read fiction, the politics thing doesn't apply to what I've seen) The only thing I can see is that some of these folks are critic wanna-bes. Really trying to sound professional ...but I often like their reviews much more than those posted by Amazon in the body of the description of the book. Anyway, I'll check out Librarything!!!!
