Where do you read books reviews? (self.books)

When I have to start reading a book I want to know if it's good or garbage, so I like to read some reviews. I don't trust Goodreads, are there some alternatives?

Out of curiosity, why don't you trust the reviews on Goodreads? he asks, having written many Goodreads reviews

Mainly because it's owned by Amazon and because I don't like most of the reviews of the books I've read

I've seen so many five-star reviews before a book is published of "I love this author can't wait for this book to come out!" on there. I've also had enough times where I despise a book and goodreads loves it or vice versa that I just can't trust the reviews.
