these are both same author & series
https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Mu...
https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=+C...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Can you also add books 2 & 3 to series please

This too https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Ch...
and this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... is an updated version of https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Tw... also needs a series link for the three books that author has listed.


2) https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=To... there's dupes for book 4 and 5 here.
3) https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Dr...
4) https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=St... and it's book 2 of the duo not book 1.

Book 1 https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=+B... 2002 original publication
Book 2 https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=+J... 2003 original publiation

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.

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.

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.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... is the updated cover and title of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

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.


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.

Aphrodite and Anonymous both have dupes listed.
2) https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... This one is also missing the blurb

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=La...
https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Th...
https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Fi...

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=De... the second one has been set up with unpunctuated initials for the author

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Th...

Also, add to series here https://www.goodreads.com/series/2863... and add blurb to this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=Lo...
