I hadn't seen it until now, so wasn't sure how it will be. I just noticed it so I must have just been added to the test group.

It says because you read such and such book goodreads recommends. The recommendation is actually quite a good one, based on the book I read. And many of my goodreads friends really liked it and I hadn't even heard of it.

But, its on my feed twice in a row. Double. I'll keep an eye out for it and if they keep doubling it, I'll mention it.

Now interesting is that its apparently based on what I read. At least that one I had is. Are they all based on what one reads? Because, doesn't that mean they use the shelf "read" goodreads gives you? The one you can't change. But what happens if you create your own read shelf, call I read it and make it exclusive and move everything from the default read shelf into it. Would there still be recommendations? It would of course mess up challenges and such things. Just a thought.

So far its not bother me as much, but it might. I like the recs better overall if they stay on the right based on my shelves. Not sure if I like them in the feed in the long run.
