Goodreads Book Detail Page - Original
Below is a screenshot example of what the Goodreads Book Detail Page looked like prior to 2021. In user research, customers repeatedly described the page as busy, dense, and overwhelming. They struggled to find and identify key book information when prompted.
Customer experience was somewhat improved on mobile experiences, but the two versions of the page lacked feature parity.
Furthermore, the two versions of the page had been built on a different frontend code base, adding complexity and effort to maintenance and improvement.
