Dear Librarians,

I always though that you could edit a list if you made it yourself. Guess I was wrong? Some member added some books that don't belong in the list Penguin Clothbound Classics Collection.

Could someone please remove:

#54 (The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain)
#55 (Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald)
#57 (Not If I Save You First by Ally Carter).

And sadly, Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe will not be published as a Penguin Clothbound Classics anymore and should be removed too:

#73 (Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe)

Thank you!

I just realised the numbers will change once you start deleting? Better start at the bottom?

PS. I added my request to series' because it does involve a collection. I hope that is correct? I am sorry if I am in the wrong forum.

books removed....."


I was so busy copying all the wayward books I forgot. My sincere apologies! Sorry! Thank you so much for your help.

PS. That seemed to be the only one I could remove myself and I don't know why? Strange!

As I understand it, the person who added a book to a list (as opposed to simply voting on a book that's already on the list) can remove the book, as long as there are no other votes on that book. Look at it this way: if there is only one vote on a book (your vote), and you remove your vote, then the book has zero votes -- which means it isn't on the list at all.
