I ♥ Bookie Nookie (bookienookiereviews.blogspot.com) (ibookienookie) | 66 comments These books are problematic because they have the same name, but they are different stories. The book on the left is a story of twincest and the one on the right is pseudo-incest (to fit Amazon's no incest policy) and the characters are step-siblings. I have read them both and they are similar, but different stories. Can someone separate and make a librarian note for others NOT to combine in the future?

Books which have been slightly modified (for a different audience, for a new edition) but have the same overall story DO stay combined.

(As it happens, the listing on the eXcessica site also specifies step-siblings.)


I ♥ Bookie Nookie (bookienookiereviews.blogspot.com) (ibookienookie) | 66 comments hmmm... ok, I didn't know that. so what if the titles were slightly different like if one was

ON THE BUS

ON THE BUS REVISED

would that be combined or not?

In reference to this comment: (As it happens, the listing on the eXcessica site also specifies step-siblings.)

I am not sure what you meant by that - I know one is step-siblings - I explained that in my OP, but the original one was biological twins. Am I missing something?

Vicky (librovert) | 2462 comments It would still be combined.

Looking at the descriptions it seems to me that they are the same story with the small detail of their sibling relationship being changed. So they are considered to be the same story.

Unless the majority of the book has changed, they still get combined. Even a book where the author has completely rewritten the last 2 chapters and re-released it would be combined with the original.
