It was more of the hoopla from a week or so ago where the author falsely stated she'd gotten threats because of the name of someone's shelf on Goodreads. And from a few years ago with the STGRB (which no one who is writing blog posts about the incident seems to research, they just see the name and say they must be good This guy was not the first to be questioned about it).

You can read the blog post which set it off HERE though he later retracted (kind of) his endorsement of STGRB (which there's more about in the comments in case you are unfamiliar with that site's tactics).

I think there's a thread in the General Discussions forum here, too.
