Thanks for being so thorough, but please do refrain from editing author names for books of GR authors with multiple name variants. If an author alerts us to having more than one name variation when he/she signs up, I typically email him/her to choose a name, and then I bring all titles together under that name.

For now, I'd say it is more important for the author's works to all be listed in one spot than for each author name to match the book cover exactly. In the future, enabling author aliases will fix issues like this!

Hi twilight lovers,
No one is in trouble, but legal representatives for Stephenie Meyer did ask Goodreads to take down the text of the first chapter. They are sorry to spoil the fun, and asked us to post this:

FROM THE PUBLISHER OF BREAKING DAWN: We know that fans are eager to share their excitement, thoughts and opinions about Breaking Dawn and other books by Stephenie Meyer. However, we ask that you please show consideration for the author's wishes and her legal rights. Stephenie Meyer would like all readers to have the same opportunity to first read the book. Copyright Law gives authors the right to decide when and how to publish their works; posting copyrighted materials without permission from the copyright owner is against the law (except for fair use). Authorized materials will be posted on the official websites, and , when they are approved for release. The author and publisher appreciate your cooperation in respecting their rights.

Thanks!
Jessica & Goodreads staff
P.S. I'm excited to read Breaking Dawn too! ]]>
