I find that Norton Critical Editons of books are very good for this. They include articles written by prominent writers and professors in the back of the book. They also have background sources and by applying them and reading the criticisms in the back you can gain a lot of insight that you might otherwise miss.

Do you mean critical REVIEWS? A couple of ways - if you have a specific book in mind, enter the title in your search engine...go to sites which usually also shows the critics and readers reviews...
If you just want to read book reviews generally, type 'book review sites' in your search engine

If you are talking about criticisms of books by scholars go to a library, either a public one, or if you attend school use the library there. I wouldn't trust online sources.

For critical reviews go to this link. I doesn't have much, but what it has is good!

Why?
Read the book and decide for yourself if it's any good.
Critics are people who can't do it themselves. Why would you
want to listen to any of them.
