Irene (irene5) | 320 comments Hello!
I believe the following books are a series (Finding Lost) because each books covers a season of the TV show and is meant to be read chronologically and refers to past books in the series.

Finding Lost: The Unofficial Guide
Finding Lost - Season Three: The Unofficial Guide (this should be #2 in the series despite the title being Season Three because the first book covered both Seasons 1 and 2)
Finding Lost: Season Four: The Unofficial Guide
Finding Lost: Season 5
Finding Lost - Season Six: The Unofficial Guide

Could the title of Finding Lost: Season 5 also be corrected to spell the word "5" out as "Five" to match Amazon, the cover, and other books?

And lastly, can the titles be fixed to all have hyphens following "Finding Lost" instead of colons? They are currently a mix of both but Amazon has all the titles with hyphens.

Thank you!

Irene (irene5) | 320 comments Thank you! Just wondering, why are the titles now just the season names despite their titles being, for example, Finding Lost Season 3? I noticed that the Harry Potter books are still called "Harry Potter and the ___" despite the series title being Harry Potter because Harry Potter is also in the book titles. Finding Lost is similarly also the actual book titles in addition to being the series name. Looking at the copyright page of the Season 5 book, it says the registered title is "Finding Lost, Season 5". Is there any the titles can be corrected again?

Irene (irene5) | 320 comments In the case of this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Seasons One and Two does not appear anywhere on the title page or cover or copyright page so I'm not sure why the title of the book has been changed to that. Is there a rule that book titles should be changed to reflect the content?

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments Well it's "Harry Potter and the..." not "Harry Potter Order of the Phoenix" or Harry Potter year 5"
If the official title would be Harry Potter Order of the Phoenix it would be Oder of the Phoenix (Harry Potter #5)

Irene (irene5) | 320 comments My question still stands: why is the first book now titled "Seasons One and Two" when those words don't appear on the cover or title page?
