(this is the cover image for THIS paperback edition of the book. i'm making certain that the cover i see on my books corresponds to the correct ISBN before making these requests)

ok, just reloaded this page after a few hours of hunting though books to find missing covers, so i guess since you can't use the same image for different editions of books that have the SAME cover, i'll repost these with amazon links to those covers. Hopefully that will work
if the links to the amazon images don't work, then how do i go about getting images added for covers? can i take pictures of the physical books in my possession and send them in for verification that they're the same image as another edition? I just don't like seeing a blank spot where a cover picture should be. it bothers me.

I think that's it for the moment. I'm just sick of having books on my shelves that don't have cover images, and i can't switch to a different edition, cuz then my catalogue of books i own wouldn't be 100% accurate (since i catalogue by isbn number of the book), so please fix these. I'll be very grateful.
thank you guys so much. you do great work.
found a few more. hopefully you can do those too#8

although regarding number 9, i might be wrong, but i think it needs to be merged, cuz i think someone made 2 books and just spelled things incorrectly for the titlebook 1: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

(if that's a different thread i apologize and i'll move it accordingly)

Hi Shannon,I added covers for the editions you posted.
Please note that for the same reason we can't use cover from one edition to another we are not allowed to use the direct link to the cover image, as we need to compare ISBN number.
Links to the full Amazon page for the edition are more useful, or just say 'cover on Amazon' and we will take it from there.
I had a look through your bookshelf and added covers to couple more editions as well.
For the last
ok, sorry about that, and yeah, for that last one, i could only find the cover on the uk version of amazon. here it is.https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bound-Destin...
had i known the direct link wasn't helpful, i would have provided you with the regular ones. sorry about that. can't believe you went through my bookshelf. that's dedication.
i really appreciate that, because it's been bugging that i have books without covers for a while now, so thank you.
also, i just applied for librarian status (since i happen to have been the first person to add a ton of barnes and noble exclusive editions or uppercase/owl crate edition books to GR), that way i can simply do this myself and help fix/update GR.
just copy pasted the whole librarian manual. i should be able to count that towards my reading challenge by the time i finish it, lol
