kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments There is a dupe here for When the Vows Break

And also the book titled Janie De Coster (the author's name) is actually a dupe of Frenemies as per the title on the cover.

kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... is the same book as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... as per the blurb. Also the kindle edition is missing the cover.

Also in the blurb is that this is also a revised version of a story in https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9... which is a pen name of the same author. Can you two authors be linked, please. (see author website https://thedivaspen.com/mix-it-up/).

Also, that author is not searchable for some reason.


kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments And yet more that are all from the same author as the one above, how on earth do these profiles get so messy?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... is the same book as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is the same as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... is the same as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and is also missing blurb

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is the same as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is the new cover bind up of the whole series as per the cover and is the same as https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1.... Also, add to series link, and paragraph the blurb, please.


kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments Two authors

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... is the incorrect spelling of https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... and is non English language versions of two of the author's books.

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... similar to the above, but is a punctuation issue rather than a missspelling of https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... but again is a non English language version of one of the author's books.

kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments Bump

Elvenn | 5763 comments #170-172 done, except #172 1). I'm not sure they should be combined, as it's not just an improved version of the same book, it says "There is an all new plot line and story elements. Only basic details like characters and general historical time frame are the same." But perhaps other librarians disagree :)


kittykat AKA Ms. Tortitude | 2510 comments Thx.

I see your point, but many authors (of romance in particular) that update their work weave in new plots etc, but at the end of the day, it is still a reworking of a previous story rather than a brand new and original piece without any correlation to the first. Therefore it makes more sense (especially to readers, given this is a site for us) to list all versions of the same story together rather than seperately.

#170.2 has also been missed and #173 onwards are still o/s.

As Elvenn said, the content of the books seems to be different except from the characters, therefore it shouldn’t be combine. However, we could be wrong, we should wait until others librarians give their opinions. Until then, it shouldn’t be combine.

172/183/184/185: Plots have quite a lot in common, including basic setup/premise (missing due to amnesia). Combined.
