Can you please add this book to my author page:

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/findi...

Usually my books upload automatically on my page but I can not seem to find it on this site.

Also, my book The Sweetheart Tree has a new cover, as you can see here:

lethe | 16373 comments We cannot use info from Barnes & Noble directly. If the books are not in the system yet, please provide all the info here so a librarian can add them.

Same for the new cover.

Okay. What exact information do you need? And how am I supposed to provide the new cover?

Liz Winters | 2 comments Just created an author page. My books have been added to the wrong author, because we share the same name, Liz Winters:

Could my books be added to my profile?

Run Away With Me: A Romantic Suspense
Kiss Me, Save Me: A Shifter Suspense Romance
Catch Me: A Contemporary Romance Short
Summer, Sex and Bad Intentions

Thank you!

Added to your profile. Because the book was published under the J.A. Hunter name, that must remain in the primary position. When you need work done on this book, you'll need to request it be done by a librarian.

Alternatively, you can claim the J.A. Hunter author page. To do so, you would need to sign on with a different email address to set up another account. If you need assistance or further information, please let us know.

Cover added to paperback ISBN 9781614040163: Dressing Your Octopus: A Paper Doll Book for Domesticated Cephalopods. In future, please post requests to add a cover to an existing listing to the Book Cover Help folder, and please include the Goodreads link.

Thank you for the Amazon link; the other link you provided for the cover is not a site we can use for cover images. Goodreads policy: Acceptable sources for covers and book data.

I was unable to find any information regarding ISBN 9781614041047. Is that a hardcover edition of this paperback? Who is the publisher? Do you have a link to the cover (not the image itself, please) from an acceptable source? Or, if you have access to the book, you can add your own scan or photo of the cover temporarily to the photo section of your profile: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new.

Fernanda Luppani (cachavacha) | 31 comments Thank you so much for your help and guidance, and apologies for the confusion.

ISBN 9781614041047 is a hardcover limited edition of the paperback. The cover is the same. Unfortunately, the only source I can give you at this time is a photograph of the information you seek from my copy: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/...

I understand if Goodreads policy doesn't permit this as a source. I thank you for your time.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7953 comments #12 — Thanks, Fernanda; that photo was perfect. You may remove it when you wish. Hardcover edition added.

Does the hardcover edition have the same page count and publication date as the paperback?


message 14: by Fernanda (new)

Fernanda Luppani (cachavacha) | 31 comments Thank you so much!

Yes, the publications are identical, except for their binding.
