Anon, look at the average rating for those books. It's usually in the 4.0+ out of 5 range, out of thousands if not millions of ratings depending on how famous the book is, which means the majority of Goodreads is a silent majority that enjoys these books. The rage bait reviews are just the reviews that get memed to the top with likes.

Anon, harry potter is the highest rated book on the site. There is literally no point to goodreads reviews, the vast majority of them are made by retards shouting into the wind.

the reviews on Carl Schmitt's "Concept Of The Political" are a bunch of hysterical seething.

>>21858402
People there read and leave reviews for social media clout. Many of the higher rated reviews are pages-long fart sniffing sagas that come off utterly deranged.

Anon, if you are intellectually intimidated in reading reviews via Goodreads, I will assume Polish extraction.

You must be at a low point in your life if you take Goodreads reviews seriously.

>Why does GoodReads hate every book I like?

Examples?

Maybe you are the bad taste faggot, maybe they are. Don't know unless you give examples.

>why does Goodreads hate every book you like?
Unless you plan to be an author, the opinion of the mass market is completely irrelevant to you.
Even if you DO, you still have to ignore it a lot of the time.

goodreads and imdb are both owned by amazon, my brother in christ. both are tainted by crowd-sourcing, my nigga.

>>21858402
It's called a vocal minority. People tend to be quite loud when they hate something.

>men draw wojak
>ugly, deformed, always getting shat on
>women start drawing femjacks
>start making them “cute” like a fucking instagram filter and a ton of makeup
Curious. Let this be a lesson about goodreads ratings as well. Look at review, female name or avatar, disregard opinion.

That Wojak is cute, who is she?

It’s always clear that anons don’t know how to use goodreads effectively

Woah, Phillip K Dick moment.

Shut up, bot.

Sounds like someone is dreaming of electric sheep (male).

>>21860385
if you've ever seen women try to draw it's the intentionally ugliest shit. Women resent beauty which is why they've never made a great or uplifting work.

Nice try Teresa. Clearly we're all bots.
