Where is this book available? Is it a newsletter exclusive?

Miriam | 1831 comments Per Goodreads Policy, subscription only books are not to be added to the database:

https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
Stories only available via subscription to a newsletter, or via a website that requires registration

I'm going to go ahead a queue this one for deletion.

Alyce Caswell (alycecaswell) | 159 comments Np. :) I thought it was allowed, because I'd seen this one added: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Should that not be deleted as well? Mentioned at the bottom as coming free with newsletter: https://www.davinastone.com/books/

Miriam | 1831 comments Because that one had reviews, we change the author to NOT A BOOK (this way it isn't searchable but people don't loose their reviews).

A lot of these kind of books get added by members, but unless a librarian knows the books we don't always know they don't belong.

Thanks for linking to the author page!
