Around the Year in 52 Books discussion

I can't seem to find any beyond October 2018, and that one isn't even linked from their lists; I only found it through Google. I can't find any post where they announced they would stop or any reason why they've stopped.

I noticed that as well. There was one month where they had posted a month early (like put up September 2018's list in August) and they haven't posted any new ones since!

Yes, I was wondering about this too. They were always hard to find anyway.

It would be fun if Goodreads could somehow formulate data that would allow them to have the highest-rated books that month or the most "read".

I know the old lists had been based on "votes" and we know those tend not to be accurate.

I've been noticing on Goodreads blog posts that they have been posting most popular books in the genres... I read an article of The Most Popular Historical Fiction Novels of the Last 5 Years, and it was calculated by analyzing member ratings and how many people added it to their TBR. Not perfect, but probably a better indication of the "best books" than what was done before.

Oh yes, definitely! That's not bad at all. Especially since it's saying Most Popular rather than "Best".
