Didn't they start showing book discussions in the group section all of a sudden too? It's fucking annoying. I'll gladly write one with you, Britt.


They are busy little bees in the Goodreads team. They keep you on your toes.
Yay the expand is back. I love Goodreads!
They changed the "groups" tab to read "discussions". Now it contains all your groups, plus book discussions below that. They want to get people more actively involved in creating and posting in actual book discussions. Before, the only way to "discuss" a book was on the book's page, at the bottom, by clicking on the "discuss this book" link. But most people, down there in that section, weren't really discussing the book, they were just hyperlinking it in some group and saying "I'm reading this," but not discussing it. Goodreads is trying to transcend mere hyperlinking, i.e., they want to encourage actual posts about books' contents.
Maybe I will give it a look. I had simply clicked back to groups without thinking about it.

My guess is that it's showing you books which have been commented on/discussed most recently.
You could start a discussion yourself on a book, and that might get people to add posts.

Are the discussions coming from within groups? I'm a bit confused.

No - you can start a discussion of a book independent of a group, on the bottom of the book's page. It's a feature that has been there for a long time, but not many people noticed. Goodreads is trying to make it more visible by dragging it out into the sunlight.

The new discussion layout is ugly and cluttered. Goodreads is often bad at aesthetics, I've noticed.
Gee and I was just about to start a conspiracy theory suggesting you were a Goodreads stooge sent to keep a close eye on TC LG. Then you go and blow it on me.
You can't call LG a mole. That really isn't very nice.
Oh you people are so mean. He/she probably doesn't have health insurance and can't afford to get it removed.
Affordable healthcare: very important.

Amen. Here's Congresswoman and Represenative for the Paranoid and Delusional Michele "Just Call Me Kooky" Bachmann's latest lies about the Affordable Health Care Act being debunked.
Has anyone else's like, place where they see the group updates changed? I used could see a list (a long one if I clicked "expand" of the recently updated topics. Now like, the group icons are smaller, and instead of "expand" it's "start a new topic."
