The new series name is as follows:

Haunting in Hartley - Haunting Clarisse book 2

Emily | 17638 comments We can't change "City of Affection" because it is printed on the current book covers. Instead, we add a new series, which can then be made primary and will show in grey under the title on the book page. Do you have new covers for the books yet?

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Hi Emily

Thanks for looking into this. Yes, the new book covers are being loaded into my Amazon profile as we speak.

Do I need to load the new book covers into Goodreads before you proceed with the change?

Thanks
Anthony

Emily | 17638 comments Does it take time to update maybe? The covers I see on Amazon say City of Affection on them.
I have added the new series and made it primary since the title has been updated on Amazon.
We don't actually change the titles of the existing books. When we make the new editions, we can put the new series name in their title fields. Then you can make those the default editions.

Emily | 17638 comments I see them on Amazon now. I will create new editions.

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Thanks, Emily....much appreciated. I am assuming you will load new covers from Amazon?

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Hi Emily

I have a new updated description for The Girl in the Scarlet Chair as follows. I can't update it at my end and I think only a librarian can do this?

"When a malicious chair's only desire is to prosper from the negative thoughts of doomed relationships—will Clarisse be willing to trade her mind for a premonition of love?
They don't have the safety of distance to rely upon—only five days to decide if they are made for each other before Harry leaves back home—or will the mysterious scarlet chair decide their fate?
She was unlucky in love, recently separated and desperately searching for the man of her dreams. For Clarisse, life became so lonely that she fell in love with his picture. For Harry, recently divorced— it carried risk and uncertainty?
In this heart-rending search for passion, he travels to the city of our affection (Manila) to meet Clarisse—a woman of immense beauty and problematic past. In this journey of new adult love, Harry leaves his western-centric norms behind. He is immersed in the city of affection—vibrant, alive, bustling and enjoying the pleasure of being. But will Clarisse have the courage to tell him everything—past secrets, fears, and inhibition."

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Thanks Emily. I made them primary which is great.

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Hi Andrew, The manuscript is not finalised and still in editing. It has not gone out as an ARC or advanced copy anywhere. Its due to be published end of May 2020.


message 12: by Janice (new)

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Hi Andrew or Emily

I have updated the book cover on Amazon. Can you please upgrade my book cover for The Girl in the Scarlet Chair.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VSM6VHY

There is no change to the book cover content other than a font style correction.

Thanks
Anthony

You will want to make this the primary edition now.

I have updated the book cover today in Amazon for Haunting in Hartley. Can you please update the book cover in my dashboard.

Thank you, Anthony

Can you clarify the difference between them? I can't see it.


message 16: by Janice (new)

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Thanks, the cover is updated on my dashboard and I can see the new cover. It's a minor change to background depth of colour.

Emily | 17638 comments Andrew wrote: "That, and you changed the series font"

That's what I thought, but I wanted to confirm in case it was due to resolution.


message 18: by Emily (last edited May 16, 2020 04:28PM) (new)

Emily | 17638 comments Anthony, if you change the cover on Amazon before the publication date again, please clarify if any ARCs were distributed when asking for it to be changed.


message 19: by Janice (new)

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Hi Emily or Andrew

There has been another modification to the book cover and it's updated in Amazon. Can you update, please? What is the best way to get a high-resolution book cover on Goodreads?

message 20: by Janice (new)

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments No ARC distributed with old cover, thanks Emily

Duplicate request has been removed. To avoid confusion, please only post requests once. If a day or two have gone by with no reply, it's fine to bump your request up by responding to your own thread. Goodreads Librarians are volunteers, and some requests may take some time to get a reply.

Janice Tremayne | 53 comments Thanks, wasn't aware you could bump up a request that way.

Series keep the name of their original language on the series page. I would say we can add the English series name to the English editions (like the French ones here: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...), but I don't see any.
