Mary Hull | 5 comments Two books that are not mine are showing up on my author profile and I don't see any way to delete them - can someone please help?

The titles I want removed are:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

and

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Thank you.

Emily | 17846 comments The best way to remove them is to just post here as you have done. I have moved them to the other Mary's profile.

Mary Hull | 5 comments Thank you Emily. I have another question- several books written by me show up under a different profile for "Mary E. Hull" - how can I get all my books under one name?

These? https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Are all the books on that profile yours?

Mary Hull | 5 comments Yes - they are mine.

Great! Ok, so we can do one of two things:

I can merge the two profiles, but your author name would then need to be the more complete version, Mary E. Hull, which is on some of the book covers.

If you prefer to have your profile be Mary Hull, we can add that as the second author on the books with Mary E. Hull on the cover. That would allow all the books to show up on the Mary Hull profile.

Which would you prefer?

Mary Hull | 5 comments That's fine - I am happy to have all books appear under "Mary E. Hull" - just need them all to be in one place. Thank you very much Rivka.

Mary Hull | 5 comments Thank you - all looks good except I just realized there is one book that should not be in there: "Parallel Processing: The Transputer and its Applications" does not belong to me. Regards, Mary

Moved to M.E.C. Hull as shown on book cover.
