Hello, Goodreads shows that ISBN 9781526654854 of The Lies We Tell has 352 pages. However, I have the book myself, and it only has 288 pages. Could you please update the page count to 288? Thank you.

I checked it in WorldCat (the preferred source for page counts) and they have this one listed with 352 pages. Just as the Goodreads page. Could you tell me if there is any content after page 288 in your book? No matters if there is no page number.
Yes, there is an author’s note, acknowledgements, and an “about the author” section, but those are only seven pages in total. The 288th page is also unnumbered.
Thank's Annu, According to the librarian manual we include in the pages count all the content except advertisements and preview chapters for other books. Librarian Manual: Book edit page – number of pages
Just to make sure I'm updating the pages correctly, could you please count and detail the pages unnumered?
Last numbered page - page(s) XXXX
Author's note - page(s) XXXX
Acknoledgements - page(s) XXXX
About the autor - page(s) XXXX
Last page with content (even if it's unnumbered) - page(s) XXXX
Thank you very much for your help!
Last numbered page - page 287Author’s note - pages 289-291
Acknowledgements - pages 293-294
About the author - page 295
Page 295 is the last page with content. Glad to be of help, thank you!
