Incorrect "page" count on Audio Book

[Lori]

ISBN13: 9781619691391

Currently the Audio CD version of this book reads, 300 pages. However the copy I've got only has 13 discs.

Please correct this for Two By Two by Nicholas Sparks for the audio version stated above

Corrected to 15 pages.

Audios are worked out as hours, WorldCat says 900 mins = 15 hrs.

Sandra, I'm sorry but I have NEVER seen Books on CD worked out as hours, they've either been the actual number of CD's or that same number as pages.

And why didn't you just change to 13 CD's as I asked?

Per the GR Librarian manual, "For audio books, the number of hours rounded up should be used in lieu of number of pages, when that information is known."

Excuse me but I just saw this as an "other" edition referenced in this title: (ISBN13: 9781478938897) and it's listed as 11 pages and Abridged.

I need the one I'm questioning "ISBN13: 9781619691391"
to read as Unabridged and 13 pages (as I said before never have seen listed as number of hours only pages or # of CD's) Can give additional examples if needed.

As Melanie explained, Goodreads policy is to list the number of hours, rounded up, as "pages" for audiobooks.

Is is unsurprising that the abridged edition is 4 hours shorter.

Notation of Unabridged added to your edition.

**************************************************************
All I asked was to make a change and don't see why it can't be done vs. the cross discussion.

Since it was brought up about a rule in the manual, it could be changed and if not then someone needs to go through ALL books listed on Good Reads either listed as Audio CD or Audio CD, 12 pages listings to reflect the manual's rule.

Hi Lori. Other than rivka, all librarians are volunteers. We can't change the rules.

If you want to change anything about site functionality you can post in the Feedback group or email staff. support AT goodreads DOT com.

As you saw, if you let us know which ones need checking, librarians are happy to check and edit as needed. Just because there may be some books that need corrections does not mean we should add others with incorrect information knowingly.

Thank for at last answering partially my question. Will take your advice and do that eventually. I had foot surgery earlier today and gradually getting back into my perusing websites, etc.
