Goodreads reviews are still pretty inflated. Anything around or under 3.5 or so probably has some big flaws.

I have found no correlation between the Goodreads score and my own perception of the book.

Again, novels and products are entirely different in that you're hopefully shopping for a product by its specs. You can't 'research' novels beforehand (unless you count as reading other novels by the same author as research) and they don't have any specs to go by.
