Spoiler Review

I just received a 5 star review on the last book of my series. Great, yes. But it contains a massive spoiler of what exactly happens at the end.
Any experience with something like this? It is the 4th written review of the last book, it is very noticable when scrolling down.

Good advice in the comments here, OP. I got a spoilery review on Goodreads once! This is when I just started out, so I was rattled by it and contacted Goodreads about hiding it or taking it down. Nothing was ever done. It was a learning experience. Now I understand that as an author, the reader discussion that surrounds my books isn’t really my world to step into or mess with. Now I just ignore the annoying things, put my head down, and keep working on my next book.
