I really don't understand why people care. Especially if they don't utilize the parts they're angsting over.

I don't use Goodreads. When I go to get a book, I will take a quick look at reviews for things I know I don't want to read. New Adults, cliffhangers, any book that has 3 or less stars. Mostly I depend on the blurb to determine if it is a book I want to read.

The few occasions where I am browsing for a new read, I tend to toss out the 5 star and 1 star reviews. I find the 3 and 4 star reviews tend to be more useful to me that the puffery of the 5 star reviews and the whinging of the 1 star reviews.

OTOH, I seldom visit GoodReads after the year when I spent a fair chunk of my browsing time on there, I found I was getting little useful information about books I might want to read.

I did stop reading after 'New York Times'. Seldom have I seen a more biased 'newspaper'.

Goodreads review bombing is a political issue now?

Since politics is verbotten outside of the politics and religion forum, they must be talking about biased in some other manner.
