lost books from dashboard

[David]

Hello
I had two titles on my dashboard, "The Flood" & "Scared & Looking for a place to happen".

They had a typo in their name- an extra space between first and last. I deleted the typos, so that the author's name match my profile name, and they disappeared from my dashboard. They now "belong" to an orphaned profile for another David Sachs.

How can I reclaim them?

Much thanks!!

The space is not a typo. It is the way Goodreads separates authors with the same name. The space is only visible on the edit page.

I moved those 2 books back to your profile.

Oh, ok. Is it a problem that the books have 2 spaces but my profile name has 1?

thanks!

Your author profile also has 2 spaces.

Thanks!
