This edition of the book is stated as having 304 pages; however, it actually only has 287 pages.

Oddly enough, there seems to be no entry at all on WorldCat for this particular edition. I even used the Advanced Search and gave all relevant information.

However, I have the book here in my hands and I can tell you with certainty that the pagination in the book only goes up to 287. I can even provide a photograph if you need further proof.

ISBN: 978-0-385-33348-1

Awesome. Thanks.

Why do you think WorldCat didn't have an entry for it? I confirmed my library is a participating library.

That's not the same book. That edition was published by Delacorte Press; the book I am referencing was published by Dial Press Trade Paperbacks.

In addition, the Delacorte Press edition published that back in 1963; Dial Press Trade Paperbacks published the edition I'm reading in 2006 January.

Again: not the same book.

Arenda | 26447 comments I believe this is your edition on Worldcat: http://www.worldcat.org/title/cats-cr...
The cover is not the same as the Goodreads cover.

[flustered] B-But— What? How did you find that?!

As shown in the screenshots I linked to above, I did as complete a search as possible and I still couldn't find it! O_O

Also, why does that WorldCat entry not list an ISBN?

From the link in message 4: go to all editions and go to the next page until you reach 2006. There was an edition from Dial Press.

Gah... Screw my life.

Okay, thanks, so problem fixed, right?
