It seems strange that there is a 1 star rating in August 2020 when the book is going to be released in January 2021. Are there clairvoyant readers on Goodreads?

I for one only rate yet unpublished books with 5 stars if out of, let's say, all 12 books from my fav author, I have loved and rated all 12 with 5 stars. Chances are, the next one will be just as good. But in the rare case that it isn't, I modify the rating after I read the book. I have seen lots of users rate unpublished books with 1 star just because the author postponed the release date because of various reasons (got pregnant, got sick, took a break because of mental health, focused on family, prioritized a fulltime job etc.) or because she/he dared not to write as fast as the respective readers wished. Which in my opinion is the shittiest thing to do. And in some cases, readers get ARCs and rate the book&write the review before the book is available to the masses, but those are pretty obvious.(less)
