Z-squared | 8575 comments re 62 and 63, author names have to be EXACTLy right, or books won't be attached to the same author profile. for 62, the author of one of the editions contained a comma before Jr. (which Goodreads policy is to omit). I merged the author profiles to the no-comma profile and was thus able to combine them. for 63, one of the books had a comma (again) and Micheal instead of Michael. Once again, merging the two profiles to the no-comma, correctly spelled version allowed me to combine the two book editions.

LibreriaStylo appears to be a bookseller. We cannot use book covers or other book data from booksellers, with the sole exception of Amazon. I replaced the cover from that site with one from Amazon.

Yes, thank you. I'm trying to see about combing author names next. The spaces are irritating.

Jonas, because we have more than one author named Jonas Lee, you are Jonas-5space-Lee. The extra spaces between your first and last names only show up on book edit pages and your profile edit page, but they tell the system which books are yours. When adding a book manually, be sure to include the extra spaces, and the book will go where it belongs. If you forget (or a book record is imported), post a new thread in this group and any librarian can fix it for you.

FYI, as the author, you have the ability to combine books yourself (just not separate them). librarians are always happy to help, of course, but i thought you'd like to know.

Author name was wrong on the one book, so I fixed it and combined.

Also, combined a couple others by the author.
