This all depends on your own personal preference. If you are the kind of person who likes to be surprised and wants to discover everything by yourself I would recommend that you not read the review before hand and instead read it afterwards to see if your taste and ideas match what others were thinking. If, however, you don't care about the whole surprise element and would just like to know how the story is, if it is any good or not, if you should even pick it up. Then go on and read the review. Reviews are what helps readers to pick up books that are suitable for them. But do keep in mind that reviews are personal opinions of the reviewers so their ideas might not be the same as yours. They might absolutely despise a book but you might be in love with it. Just keep that in mind ^^
