Jeremy Pippen (jeremypippen) | 6 comments The In Her Name series doesn't seem to be showing up in the right order for some reason. This is sorted by Author, and the first book shows up correctly, but after that, it is out of order. I've checked the order of all the series and I'm not sure what's out of place. Here's an image as an example.

Monique (kadiya) | 1097 comments Jeremy, this is on your own personal bookshelf, right?


message 3: by Jeremy (new)

Jeremy Pippen (jeremypippen) | 6 comments Yes, this is. I've not added any custom sorting other than sorting by the author. Every other series in my to-read bookshelf is sorted by series properly. This is also the only series within a series, as that may be part of the problem.

We are talking about two series here: In Her Name: The Last War and In Her Name: Redemption. I am not sure why they show up on the same list.

This is in my bookshelf. It's actually 4 different series at play here. All of these books belong to the "In Her Name" series. Within this series are three trilogies: "The Last War", "Redemption", and "The First Empress". The Last War is the first series, so it could be expected that The Last War books would appear before Redemption, which would appear before The First Empress within my bookshelf.

Monique (kadiya) | 1097 comments Jeremy,

I think you are very lucky that your series sort for you on your bookshelf. Almost none of mine do.

It may be that someone else has seen this and might know something about it, but it is not something a Librarian can fix for you.

Jeremy Pippen (jeremypippen) | 6 comments I made this post here because I thought maybe there was something wrong with the series or the individual books themselves that is causing them to be out of order. Can topics be moved?

Monique (kadiya) | 1097 comments Jeremy,

Ah, totally understandable. No, there is nothing I see that is wrong with the book records.

I believe topics can be moved, but I don't have the superpowers to do that. :)
