Shannon Egan (shannonegan101) | 4 comments Hi guys,

I'm new to Goodreads and would like to do a giveaway for my book No Tourists Allowed. I've set up an author profile and my book can be found on Goodreads when searching the title. However, whenever I try to set up a giveaway it says ISBN or ID not found.

I've been using the following, which is listed on Amazon:
ASIN: B01445QAKK and ISBN-13: 978-0692436257.

I've tried several times but the message is: ◾Book invalid book id or ISBN
◾Book doesn't match any books in our database

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can somebody please help me? THANK YOU!!

Paula (paulaan) | 332 comments Only the kindle edition existed, not the paperback

Kindle editions cannot be entered in a giveaway.

Paperback edition added here

Shannon Egan (shannonegan101) | 4 comments Paula, thank you are so kind to help me out. It looks like it is on there now. At least the ISBN is on there...did you add the paperback already? I'm sorry if it's an obvious thing, but I am not sure how to add the paperback specifically if I still need to do that. Thanks again.

Paula (paulaan) | 332 comments The paperback edition is added, the link to it is in my msg 2 above. You should be able to start a giveaway now that it exists on GR
