I have had a request by the above author and her agent to have this book deleted as the release has been put off indefinitely. They want it removed altogether from the site. I need a super-librarian to do this. Please and thank you :)

The book is The Historians(book 1) by Trisha Leigh Ziegenhorn.
Heather, I don't see that anyone has replied to you but no search I have done brings up such a book. Can you please link to it?
Thanks!
This has been handled in your other thread by Deon and Bajomike.
Monique- It's back up and with the cover. Is there any way you can go and delete it?

The problem is that this was originally going to be self published and now it is on submission with traditional publishers. Several of the editors are finding this page and are confused about its status.
Also those weren't arcs they were reviews from beta readers and that is NOT the cover.
That is the cover publicly revealed when the author was giving the book away in May of this year. So it's very likely exactly the cover that the current reviewers edition had on it, ARC, Beta read or not: http://www.elizabeth-collins.com/1/po...

Details of the giveaway specify a print ARC, not a beta.
If it's released in future, with another cover, then people who purchase/read that version can shelve the appropriate edition, but this one looks to be correct as it is.
The cover image is not licensed for this book at this time. It has not been approved. The ARC above was never sent, because it was stated that it would be sent when available. It was never available.
The author has sent her requests to Goodreads and explained the situation. We will leave it at that.

This title has not had ARCs sent out. I handle that and I have not sent any of that out. They were beta copies, which are just early drafts nothing final. Those who wrote reviews off of them misspoke when calling them ARCs because they definitely were not that. Please help us with this situation. Thank you,

Since this issue has been been sent to GR support, librarians need to stay out of it. An employee will make a final decision.

Precisely. Closing this thread.
