Aaarrggh

[(Anonymous)]

I'm interested in a book, but made the huge mistake of reading the reviews. Mixed wouldn't even begin to describe them. "The action was engaging, but the characters felt like cardboard." "The action fell flat, but the characters saved the story." "I preferred the prequel because it was deeper and more honest." "I came here expecting the same monotony as the prequel, but was pleasantly surprised." The only thing anyone can agree on is that it was rushed, and could have been told better in two or three books than in one. But still, I'm the kind of person who can enjoy even the weakest writing as long as I ignore other people's opinions. So why did I go find out?! *slams face against desk repeatedly*

Don't think about it. I've read reviews after the fact and thought "What the fuck book were they reading?" The reviews were just... wrong. Just read the book.

Have you considered checking to see if it has an entry on TVTropes?

No, really. It's not a good place to go if you're trying to avoid spoilers (though, neither are reviews) and there's a lot of issues with parts of the userbase, but in my experience it's a good place to find out if a given canon is going to do narrative stuff that I'm interested in.

What book is it?

I read endless Twilight reviews utterly bashing the first book, and went into it completely prepared to hate it just as much. Boy, was I wrong (yes, I'm appalled at myself). Try out the book, quite possibly what other people had to say may not be the deciding factor in whether you like it anyway.
