OK, good, that's what I was hoping to find. I see there are 2017 books here as well... are you going to remove them? Thanks for your response! I love these lists of upcoming books because I find new/good reads here.

i tried removing some but i can't seem to figure out how. it looks like i can't unless i was the one who added it :/
Oh bummer. Thanks for trying. I didn't realize the creator of a list doesn't actually play an admin-type ownership role with the list. Sorry to bug you with that!

If you're a librarian, you can remove them. Or you can tell me which ones they are, and I'll go get them. I like this list and don't want to see it ruined.

I swear there were two more but I'm not seeing them. I will respond again if I can find them.
Thanks so much - I love this list and don't want to see it ruined either.

Interesting. Projected for publication in 2019, only 3 ratings, and yet here it is. Was. Gone now.
#88 The Last Mrs Parrish
Gone.
#89 The Weight of Ink
Gone.
#90 Devils and Thieves
Gone...you know, to have 4 books in a row that have the wrong pub date is an unfortunate coincidence.
#91 The Boy She Left Behi..."
And gone.
Good eyes, Tracy. This is the time to clean that stuff out, before anyone has a chance to come along behind and vote for them. Once a book cements itself on page one after hundreds or thousands of people have voted for it, it's hard to justify removing it. If there is monkey business (a favorite expression of cranky librarians like me), some or all of these titles will be right back up again. But this is one of the luxuries of retirement: I can pop back and take them down again, especially if alerted.
Cheers.
Now I am genuinely cranky. People, people. If you can read a book, you can read the description on the list. 2018. Now it may be that some titles are being reissued in 2018, and I won't quibble with that if it turns up in the GR data base. That's a fine detail I will leave the the list's creator. But clearly the end of this list consists of titles that are of all different years with no care to whether they belong here.Young people these days. *dark sulk*
Here we go. March, Book One, from 2013. Gone.

2017, Pachinko:

There are at least half a dozen titles here that are being reissued in 2018, and I didn't touch them. There are a couple being published in English for the first time in 2018 (French, Japanese), and I didn't touch those either. I only removed the blatant cheats--whether intentionally or not--and even so, that was a lot of titles.
That said, I've marked this list for notification, and I hit the site daily, usually more than once, so if these pop back up, or other spam is inserted, say the word and I'll come running with my red pen.

I love this list because its going to help me discover newly released books that are also well received. I appreciate your taking the time to straighten up the stacks!

I wanted to be able to clean up good lists, rather than shouting into the dark, which is how it felt to me. Cheers, and have a good week.
