Ivy Smoak (ivysmoak) | 50 comments Hi,

I have a series called The Hunted Series: https://www.goodreads.com/series/1615...

I used to write the books in parts, which are denoted as parts 1-6. But under the series section they were changed to be "book 1" through "book 6" instead of as parts. And now when you click on them, they say "The Hunted Series #1 - #6" accordingly.

Now that I'm no longer selling the individual parts and just writing the novels as full books, this creates an issue keeping things organized. I was hoping to change the full novels to be described as the "books" instead. So:

"Temptation" right now says The Hunted Series #1-3. I'd like this to say The Hunted Series #1 and be classified as book 1. Here's the link:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

And "Addiction" right now says The Hunted Series #4-6. I'd like this to say The Hunted Series #2 and be classified as book 2. Here's the link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

And have all the different "parts" be described as such so that no one gets confused. So instead of being The Hunted Series #1 - #6, being changed to The Hunted Series parts 1 - 6 possibly? I feel like it isn't possible, but if it is, it would be even better if we could just have all the reviews and ratings for those books be absorbed by the parent books? Or just delete them entirely?

Thanks for your help!

Since they were published, we don't delete them.
We only combine editions with the same contents, not parts and whole books.
