Cassia Hall (cass_hall) | 17 comments Hello,

Please help me add Book 3 (Fall Lanterns) to my existing series, the Seasons Cycle.

Fall Lanterns: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


Seasons Cycle: https://www.goodreads.com/series/3456...

I also have a question about books that are connected with a series. Can those be added as well?

If so, please add the following book (Songs of Love & Longing) to the Seasons Cycle as it contains poems and songs that are featured in the series:

Thank you very much for your help!

Best,
Cass

Cassia Hall (cass_hall) | 17 comments Hi Corinne,

Thanks for getting back to me! I took a look at the link you sent and yes, my series meets GR policy because of the following:
"... a book is only part of a series if that designation would apply to all editions of a work. To be a series on Goodreads, books need to have more than a common theme -- like characters in common, an overarching storyline, a shared universe, etc."

Spring Song, Summer Lights, and Fall Lanterns feature the same characters in the same fantasy world, and Books 2 and 3 are continuation of the story in Book 1 (i.e. there is an overarching storyline).

As for Songs of Love & Longing, it contains poems and songs that are composed for the characters and scenes in the books in the Seasons Cycle, poems/songs that are included within the text of the 3 books or appended to the end of the book.

I hope that is enough to meet the requirements?

Thank you!

Best,
Cass

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to help with this. Many thanks!
