Hello! Could you please change Cobalt Rogue, Vol. 3.5's "book #" status in this series here: https://www.goodreads.com/series/144720 from "Book #3.5" to "Book #4" without changing the ACTUAL title? I've found that books with decimals in their numbered statuses don't show up on some lists and I'd like to have it changed to a full number. Much appreciated! :)

No, the cover clearly states #3.5. If you click on the series it always lists all books in the series. If you only look at the series list on the author page it only shows full number books.
The decimal books are generally novellas as opposed to full novels, and that is why it is GR policy to do them that way.
Ah, I see. Thanks anyway.
Sorry to revive this, but could this possibly be set as a primary work within the series?

I had to split the work in two, as it became too large for one volume. I originally though adding a '.5' at the end would signify that, but now I know I should've just referred to it as "Vol, 3, Part II" or as the fourth volume...
It's definitely a full novel, though. I've got almost 500 pages of material written so far.
