Gwen Harvey | 8 comments Hi, yesterday I added this book but was told the ISBN was wrong, so I stared over and added it with the correct ISBN. When I then searched for the book it was appearing TWICE. I cant tell what the ISBN number is for these 2 entries, so dont know if one is right and one is wrong. Can someone please remove one of them and keep the one with the right ISBN in place? The book is The Girlfriend Book by Gwen K. Harvey and ISBN is 9781649697851 Thanks!

Gwen Harvey | 8 comments Wow, thanks so much Emily. You also seem to have added the cover that was missing. Very much appreciated. Another question I have is "why is it that when I enter the title of the book, all kinds of other books that dont have that title show up?" They may have one word in it, but the actual full title of The Girlfriend Book is my title and the title it seems of one or 2 others, but mine is buried and others that are not those 3 words show up on the first page. Makes it hard for a reader to find. Easy to find if just do my name as author. Any way to make the book show up on the first page when title is exactly asked for?
