Zach (sleptlate) | 2 comments Hi goodread devs,

It would be very handy if the reviews.list API could accept a "page" parameter as well as "per_page," as several other APIs do. This would greatly facilitate folks like me who want to write a "one-off" script on their reviews list but can't be bothered to sign up for a developer key.

On an unrelated note, I've noticed that some books have empty num_pages elements. Is there a programmatic way to deal with this absence? It seems to happen most often on books with many different editions. There are several examples of this on my feed:

Thanks,

The num pages field comes directly from the book you reviewed. If the book you added doesn't the right number of pages you can change to an edition that does, or librarians can edit the num pages field.
