Kirsten (kiriliz) | 4 comments I would like my three books to be linked together as a series. I already have the series created and linked to the first book.

Series title: Once Upon a Twist Tales.

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

Book Two: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Book Three: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

To be a series on Goodreads, books need to have more than a common theme -- like characters in common, an overarching storyline, a shared universe, etc. What makes this a series?

Kirsten (kiriliz) | 4 comments Thank you Sai for linking the books! And rivka, the books contain recurring characters (as Andrew said), as well as a shared universe, connected storylines, etc. They are also all non-magical fairytale retellings.

Also, I'm not sure if this is something that can be answered here, but for some reason there are two entries for my book The Bear of Rosethorn Ring (#4 of this series). I only created one entry (a Kindle ebook) for the book (the link I included above). When I went to create the paperback page, I discovered that someone had created a second page for the Kindle ebook (link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...).

The only information that I can find different on that second page is the ASIN number; there is no ISBN on that second page (I've included that information on the first page). However, since the ASIN number is linked to the second page, Goodreads isn't allowing me to create the paperback page for the book.

If possible, I'd like the second entry with the ASIN number deleted since I did not create it and it is a duplicate.

Sai (saikan) | 304 comments added series.

the other 4th book - also the kindle version is grabbed from amazon automatically.
In order to keep your manual created data, I changed the kindle version you created to have actual kindle ASIN.

and moved the current ISBN on the above link to the automatically created version and thus making it as a paperback and finally linked them both.
