doneFor the debate over the cover art, while I agree with your *premise* and point, I also understand the other librarians' "we volunteer librarians don't overstep actual goodreads paid staff on decisions of cover art, when the art used is still a technically valid image of the material" so I didn't change anything cuz i'm a wuss :D

1. US Hardcover Edition: Don't Fear the Reaper (ISBN 9781982186593)
- The description is almost correct, but some changes need to be made. To match the description as it’s written on the actual jacket of the book, the final sentence (“Don’t Fear the Reaper is the page-turning sequel…”) needs to be removed and the opening paragraph needs to be changed to the following:
Jade returns to the rural lake town of Proofrock the same day as convicted Indigenous serial killer Dark Mill South escapes into town to complete his revenge killings, in this riveting sequel to My Heart Is a Chainsaw from New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones.

2. US Ebook Edition: Don't Fear the Reaper (ISBN 9781982186616)
- The ISBN-10 1982186615 also needs to be set as the ASIN to prevent the Goodreads bot from screwing things up and mistakenly assigning it to another edition.

3. US Paperback Edition: Don't Fear the Reaper (ISBN 9781982186609)
- The book is mistakenly using the hardcover edition’s cover art. Paperback art is here, taken from the publisher’s website: https://d28hgpri8am2if.cloudfront.net...
- The description is incorrect and missing formatting. Transcribed from the back of the book:
On December 12th, 2019, Jade returns to the rural lake town of Proofrock, Idaho, the same day as convicted Indigenous serial killer Dark Mill South escapes into town to complete his revenge killings, in this riveting sequel to My Heart Is a Chainsaw from New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones.
Four years after her tumultuous senior year, Jade Daniels is released from prison right before Christmas when her conviction is overturned. Coming home is not easy – and Jade may never admit it out loud, but she’s happy to be back. However, that same day, convicted serial killer Dark Mill South, seeking revenge for thirty-eight Dakota men hanged in 1862, escapes from his prison transfer as a blizzard descends just outside of Proofrock.
Dark Mill South’s Reunion Tour began on December 12th, 2019, a Thursday.
Thirty-six hours and twenty bodies later, on Friday the 13th, it would be over.

8. Barnes & Noble Exclusive Edition: Don't Fear the Reaper (ISBN 9781668023846)

- The ISBN-10 and ASIN are missing. They should both be 1668023849.

- The language is missing. It should be English.
- I personally think the cover art should be changed, but other librarians have made the case that it shouldn’t. I’ll link the thread I made about it and let the librarians decide how to proceed. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
