Mouse | 101 comments No ISBN and I can't find one which isn't already listed either, So it's a placeholder. Please delete.

no specifics about the book. This author does have a short story in this anthology by the same title: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26...

Do you think that first link should be deleted? I wonder if someone liked his short story in that book so they added the book. But they added it poorly.

Re 428 - has different cover, and while there is no info on the cover a librarian has uploaded it, I suggest you contact them and ask if the book exists with that cover

Could you delete this book please?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

I am not publishing it. I do not know how the one reviewer got a copy - I'm not even finished writing it yet. It has never been published.

Thanks :)

Ninja Neko | 171 comments Can a super merge these 2 Polish editions? I believe they're both referencing the same book, but one has the isbn13 and the other has the cover & broken isbn10.
* http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...
* http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
I've seperated them from the other editions so the users are kept in they're edition of choice.

Re 423: We do not delete books that are going to be published. I have left a note on it, and adjusted the publication date of the edition to match what you had edited for the work.


message 423: by Angela (new)

Angela Young | 41 comments Please delete this book from my dashboard page (and all pages where it appears on my pages at goodreads):

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

The author has the same name as me, but she is Dr Angela Young (I'm just plain Angela Young) and I didn't write her book. And is it possible to do something on the site to identify me so that no other books by any other Angela Youngs get added to my goodreads page please?

Thank you.

Bev Stout (Bev_Stout) | 3 comments I have apparently added two copies of the audio book version of Secrets of the Realm and I have combined one of them with my paperback and ebook version. I need the one that is NOT combined deleted.
Can you do that for me?


message 429: by B.V. (new)

B.V. | 3 comments I am a librarian (and author) and tried to delete the following two ebooks, as they were merged into one new collection - but apparently I need a super librarian to do this for me. Thanks!

"The Girl with the Plastic Gun" is gone. Shame, the blurb sounded good.

There is quite a lot of info about the book on the Web.

There was a cover reveal only 10 days ago on multiple sites including:
http://www.cocktailsandbooks.com/cove...
the original cover looks to have been a purple job.

Long previews are available on several sites:
"Chapter One

Eleven days from her twenty-fifth birthday, Violet Simon decided that she needed to do something drastic to change the current course her life was on.

The conclusion to take a month off from work didn’t come lightly. On the contrary. She spent every waking moment living for her father. He molded her into the perfect heir, but more importantly, the son he never had..."


The reviewer has also reviewed other books by you and he specifically says "This is a book that I do plan to read again". Perhaps he only read the previews but I think that still counts.


message 437: by Danielle (new)

Danielle Taylor (danielle_taylor) | 41 comments So you're saying that, because I DID plan on releasing it but now I CANNOT release it, it has to stay up there?

Of course there is info about Letting Go on the web. I was going to release it in a few weeks but now the US is making it impossible for people outside of the US to publish on Amazon or B&N. So I've decided NOT to publish it.

I've asked him to delete the review and he has.

If I have to contact Goodreads directly, I guess that's the way it is.

Banjomike | 5166 comments Danielle wrote: "Danielle Taylor (Danielle_Taylor) | 30 comments So you're saying that, because I DID plan on releasing it but now I CANNOT release it, it has to stay up there?"

No, not exactly. I was making the point that there are more than enough sightings of the book (or non-book) to convince a reasonable person that it does exist in some form or other in which case we would keep it.

I can still see the review on the book page:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
but that might be one of Goodreads slow caching issues. When it is gone I expect we can remove the book.

What is "US is making it impossible for people outside of the US to publish on Amazon or B&N" all about?

That is what librarians have to ask you to do if the book has any reviews. Librarians who unilaterally delete books with reviews risk losing their librarian status.

You were suggested to review this comment: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1... (The numbering in the thread has changed, which is why it was probably confusing.)


Got 464.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18... I added in error. I didn't realize there was already an alt cover edition in Goodreads.


message 444: by Steve (new)

Steve (smckinney) | 22 comments Hounded appears to be a duplicate of Hounded, with the author's last name incorrectly spelled ('Hearn' instead of 'Hearne'). I believe it should be deleted, but as a new librarian I am hesitant to do so myself; it has less than 5 reviews but I don't want to step on any toes. Thanks in advance!
