message 1: by Lori (new) - added it

Lori Goldstein | 159 comments I have a hardback copy of this title which I won from Good Reads awhile ago. The ISBN is 9780061583254 and according to the Good Reads listing it is a paperback with 352 pages.

The book I have in front of me is a hardback and only has 301 pages.

Can the changes be made as there is a listing for a hardcover with 301 pages but it's ISBN is listed as 9781554682799

I'm wondering if a mistake was made when this title was entered and the paperback got the hardback ISBN by mistake.

Please let me know how to handle this.

It looks like it was originally designated as a HC, and someone changed it to pbk. Reverted the change. Worldcat agrees with the page count- changed to 301.

Thank you for making the change and a such a quick response.
