The same thing happened in check points two and three.

Cheryl your citation is wrong:

Ringing the Changes An Autobiography by Mazo de la Roche by Mazo de la Roche Mazo de la Roche

Please fix it

You have to check other editions when you first do not see a bookcover - in this case there was an edition with a bookcover - if there wasn't one we would have to do it differently.

You need to add the book cover, the author's photo and author's link. Use the add book/author feature in the upper right corner...."


Marguerite - it is always best to get this down before you join in - it is incredibly easy but you just need some additional help - we are here to help you.

Go to the Mechanics of the board and we will help you there - we have a good team who only expect you to try - pretty soon you will get it right and the powerful goodreads software will be able to cross populate your site and your posts will not get lost. You can see that the other members are almost pros - that is because they have now 5 readathons under their belt. You will be a pro too if you keep at it. These are our standards and we help you with patience and kindness to achieve them but we do not lower our standards - we just expect you to get there no matter how long we have to work with you and we are always willing on our end.

Here is the link to the Mechanics of the Board thread:
