Juan Carlos | 31 comments Hello there. If I re read a book but using an altogether different edition, how do I add it to my READ folder without it being bundled up with the previous edition of the book?

I'm assuming you're stuck with the new version of the book page? I had the same problem when it first rolled out. It was a huge pain in the ass, but I eventually figured out a solution. Copy/pasted from a Goodreads Help thread where I figured it out:

- Go to whatever book you want to work with.

- Go to the page for the specific edition you want.

- Scroll down to Ratings & Reviews. It'll show you a picture of the old edition that you previously read and details about what you did with the edition.

- Click the right arrow button until you see text that says "Review this edition" with your avatar above it. Click the write a review button there.

- This will take you to the review page for the specific edition you're on and not the previous edition. You can edit your shelves and read dates and review and whatnot from there.
