Anyone notice that on a page for a book the publication date, number of pages, publisher, etc is no longer available? I tried both Firefox and Edge and same issue.

That's because Goodreads is getting worse and worse. That's why I am using Storygraph instead.

I'm checking out Storygraph now. Looks like a good alternative. Just waiting for my Goodreads export to be processed. Thanks.

Thank you. The Storygraph descriptors and tags are useful to me.

I've also seen Goodreads take down pages for short story anthologies.

Also, they no longer provide links to the Kobo store. They did prior to Amazon buying them out. It's just a Kindle advertising platform now.

It was a short-lived bug.

Are you certain that the "bug fix" wasn't a hasty retreat in the face of a deluge of complaints?
