Author Stats Question

[Laurèn]

Hello,

I just have a quick question regarding my author stats.

For "on to-read shelf", I see a "-1" and I was just wondering what that meant.

Thank you!

I see a 0 on your to-read shelf, unless you mean something different? The shelves are not author stats, but user stats.

Since this has to do with site functionality, it is a question for the Feedback Group. See f.e. this thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Hi Lethe,

I am not referring to my to-read shelf, but under my author stats on my Author dashboard

number of works 1
added by unique users 5
total books added 5
followers 2
total ratings 2
friends 0
total reviews 0
books I've added 1
on to-read shelf -1*****
books I've reviewed 0

Librarians cannot help with that. You are the only one who can see your author dashboard.

Since this has to do with site functionality, you can either post in the Feedback Group or contact support (at) goodreads (dot) com

Librarians have the ability to refresh a book's stats, which probably would have corrected the issue. Either someone did so without posting, or the cache refreshed on its own.

The author's single book now shows a positive number of to-reads.

You mean there was a -1 under the rating details of Lauren's book? It was unclear to me that this was what was meant and where I was supposed to look.
