ok, one more question. I seem to remember being able to add/edit the cover of my books. one of them is missing and another is wrong (older version), how do I do that? thanks!

Send me the links of books and covers and I do it for you.

By Goodreads policies, we should keep the covers of the books even if they are old, because some readers will want to have them on their shelves.

We can only add new editions. However, as an author, you can decide which is as default.

the original version of one of my book's cover image is not how I wanted it and was too dark, so I updated it. that's how it is in both print and ebook now.the other book the cover image is just WAY too dark on this site for some reason.
see how light this one is versus the one on this site:http://www.amazon.com/Case-Peculiar-R...
and this one just looked funky with the first cover so I revised it. very minor changes, lightened a little and meteors added to the sky:

I just upgraded the covers, I think now they look better, I took them directly from amazon links. Can you check it?
