I set this one as Invalid myself; it may not have cleared the cache yet. The direct link will show that it's invalid.


It looks like another librarian marked the invalid bootleg Kindle edition of The Sluts as valid even though you invalidated it. Do you think you could invalidate it again, then maybe leave a library note explaining the situation with it? Feel free to copy/paste the explanation I gave if you want.

As a note, a few of these editions are ebook and Kindle editions made without the permission of the author or publisher. These editions should be marked as invalid, as per instructions from Jaclyn: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
As another note, this book’s US cover art is somewhat NSFW (a photo of a nude man cropped just above anything sensitive). Maybe don’t work on this thread if you’re in public or on your work computer or something.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... – The current valid US paperback edition of the book. ISBN 9780786716746. Putting this at the top because most of the invalid editions will need to be merged with it.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... – Invalid edition, no ISBNs, ASIN because it was created by the bot importing a secondhand Amazon seller. Needs to be merged with the US paperback.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... – Invalid edition. No ISBNs. Needs to be merged with the US paperback.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... – This is a bootleg Kindle version uploaded by someone who was not the author or publisher. The Sluts has never been officially released digitally by the publisher except for the German translation, and you can see from the Amazon preview that this specific Kindle edition is mostly made up of corrupted images and bad image-to-text automated transcription, indicating it was done by someone who really didn't know what they were doing when they created it. Even though it may have existed at some point, it’s not a valid edition. Needs to be marked invalid.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... – Invalid edition, no ISBNs, ASIN because it was created by the bot importing a secondhand Amazon seller. Needs to be merged with the US paperback.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... – A bootleg ebook edition of the Spanish translation. No ISBN, the publisher is the online handle of the person who digitized the book. Needs to be marked invalid.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... – ISBN-less edition of the Spanish edition of the book. Needs to be merged: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... – Duplicate edition of the Spanish translation. Has an ASIN because it was most likely created by the bot from a secondhand Amazon seller. Needs to be merged: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
