Hillary (webhill) | 14 comments Hi. I want to add ASIN B0015DWMNY to goodreads. it is the kindle edition of Kate Jacobs' Comfort Food. What is the best way to add it so that it is attached to the other editions of the book? I think I need remedial book adding...

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Hillary, you need to add and save the book first. Then, you go to that author's combine page and combine the edition you just added with all the rest of the editions of that book. It has to be a 2 step process.

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments There's no way to manually add an ASIN. Usually if you put it in the search box you'll trigger an import of the Amazon record, but it doesn't seem to be working in this case. I don't know why!

Something is broken; I have not been able to find Kindle editions for most of the books I've looked for. I know Otis was looking into it at one point. But I'm going to try Lisa's suggestion for now. Thank you both.

Hillary (webhill) | 14 comments OK, well - I added the Kindle edition, but I can't combine it because I'm not a librarian. Can someone else do it? Is there some other way that I can create Kindle editions of books that already exist without needing to combine it? Because I don't want to keep pestering you guys, but this is a recurring problem.

You could always become a librarian. :)
