My book Defiant is book 1 in The Devil’s Deviants MC Series, and Damaged is book 2 in the series. Can you please add the series and reflect the order. Thanks!

Hi, I noticed you combined all your books in the order unbound series by mistake. I separated them and fixed your series page but it takes a while for the pages to go back to the way they looked before. I wanted to mention it because right now in your profile page they look like they have no ratings and the series page in your profile appears like it has only 1 book. This will go back to normal in a day or two. Just in case you happen to notice it you know it's normal.
I combined them on purpose. Order Bound is Holden, Trinity, and Unbroken all together. Holden, Trinity, and Unbroken are no longer available separately and it was confusing readers.
This is against policy, please don't combine them again. Goodreads is a database, not a store. If a book goes out of print the book record is still retained. It shouldn't be combined incorrectly. Order Bound which is a boxset/omnibus should not be combined with every individual book it contains.As mentioned before Goodreads is a database. As such the main purpose of Goodreads for readers is to log their reading activity. For example, not every single reader who read those books has a Goodreads account. If someone who read those books joins next year they might want to log their past reading activity, they should be able to find each individual book and add it to their shelves.
You can find the policies for combining books here: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
As the author you might wish to indicate that those editions are out-of-print. Here are the policies and guidelines to do so https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/... if you are unsure how to do this we can do it for you.
