Playing devil's advocate here - What if you don't already know if you want to read the book?
Maybe the post has no spoilers and is just someone saying "Hey everybody, I just read ______ and I highly recommend it. It's very well written and the plot is gripping." Maybe you never even heard of the book before, but the recommendation puts it on your TBR list.
Or maybe the post is simply saying "I just read ______. It was badly written, full of plot holes and anachronisms, and I don't recommend it at all".
So if you don't open the thread to see what it is, you could potentially miss out on such a recommendation.
