Hi!

I was going to update my progress in this edition of the book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...), but the number of pages is wrong. In fact, I decided to enter the ISBN, and another entry of the same book appeared, but with a worse-quality cover.

Why there's two of them that are the exact same but with different ISBNs? There's no paperback version of this book. Just hardcover. How can this be fixed now that I found out?

Either way, the number of pages is 309, not 160 (9788491879466).

This is the other entry of the book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

In both, the "currently reading" appears, but the one I have in my library has the wrong number of pages.

P.S.: Do I have to open another entry to merge those two editions that are the same?

Is there someone who can fix this, please?

Okay... I know there are a lot of requests, but if any librarians are reading this, could you please fix the page number? It's been almost seven days since I added this request and a few people saw this post. I can't properly update my reading progress. It's such a small thing, but it's an option on Goodreads for something, so I don't understand why fixing a number is such a big deal and no one seems to be able to do it.
Do I have to take pictures of the book or something? The guide doesn't say so. I want someone to help me. If I were a librarian, I would have fixed it by now.

Hi Lala

Sorry Lala I'm the only librarian currently trying to update some of the missed page counts - & I'm only up to th e9th of October.

The page count folder should only be for page counts or very simple edits like adding the publisher. If you want your other issue addressed please edit to change to the Book Issues & Author Pages Issues folder. They should be able to do your page count as well. This can only be done in the desktop view.

Page count requests if I'm given all the info should only take 2-5 minutes. I have decided to stop doing requests like this one that can take considerably longer than that.

& page counts are usually done by new librarians or librarians without much spare time.

Thank you so much! I understand. I will address this in that folder then.
