I have a question. I am managing an author who is re releasing their book with a publishing company. She wants her old book down and the one that is going to re release up. The author is Leddy Harper and the book is Home No More. The blurb is the same just the cover is different. Can this be done?

is there any way to do it where the reviews transfer over? Its the same book just different cover
Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have. Instead, we add an alternate-cover edition.AUTHOR FAQ: Authors look here first!
Adding an Alternate Cover Edition (ACE)
As the author, you will have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default, which will come up in searches by title and show on your author profile. Here's how:
Setting the default edition
if the book wasn't released yet how does she go about adding it?
you can add the new book by filling the publishing date field with the date the book will be publish...
by any chance if I email you everything could you add it. I really don't want to mess anything up.
just put the book info in here...* Title
* Author(s) name(s)
* ISBN (or ASIN)
* Publisher
* Publication date
* Format
* Description
* Link to cover on a NON-BOOKSELLER site, such as a publisher site, an author site, etc. If linking to a site such as Imgur, Dropbox, etc. please state the original source of the image. No B&N or other bookseller links can be used as sources for covers or other book data, with the exception of Amazon and its subsidiaries.
