Drace (dracenines) | 7529 comments So, this is kind of an odd one. On basically every other site I can find (Amazon, publisher website, Barnes & Noble, etc), the trilogy that Stephen Graham Jones is currently writing (so far consisting of My Heart Is a Chainsaw and Don't Fear the Reaper) is referred to as the Indian Lake Trilogy. However, here on Goodreads it's called the Lake Witch Trilogy. To complicate things a bit, the author said on Twitter (https://twitter.com/SGJ72/status/1506...) that he approves of both series names.

So, how should this be handled? Does Goodreads change the series name or leave it as-is?

Drace (dracenines) | 7529 comments It's been a week (and Don't Fear the Reaper is out today), so I'm bumping this thread.

gem | 2622 comments Series name has been changed. It might take awhile to update in all places on the site due to caching. Please add "Done" to thread title.
