Sidonie | 4 comments Hi! I recently finished reading The Rogue of Fifth Avenue but got an error when I went to post my review saying it was locked due to not meeting catalog guidelines. I reviewed the guidelines and to my knowledge it meets all of them (it is a traditionally published novel that is available to be purchased individually from major retailers). Might need review.

Shim (slimmy) | 3609 comments This request is complete.

Please edit the title / subject of your post and add [done] so other Librarians know it is complete.


Sidonie | 4 comments You got it! Thanks so much.


Sidonie | 4 comments Sorry to revive this, but I've tried to post my review multiple times since the request was completed and am still getting the catalogue guidelines error. I've tried clearing my cookies twice, and I've posted a review for the second book in the series with no issues.

Please let me know if I should wait longer for the change to take effect or submit a bug report instead of posting here. Thanks for your help!

Shim (slimmy) | 3609 comments I just tried marking it as read / reviewing it (then deleted the activity) and had no problems. Maybe the topic is connected to a different edition? Do you have a direct link to the edition you're having trouble with?

Shim didn't edit the edition you have shelved that is giving your error message. -> https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

That was last set to Invalid status by GR employees and volunteers can't undo book statuses GR employees assign. Looks like maybe you shelved an edition that was canceled in pre-order status before publication? Anyway, which edition of the book did you read, i.e. where did you get it from, Amazon or other bookseller and which format did you read? You probably just need to switch editions to the one that matches the one you read and then you will be able to enter your review.

ETA: or not...looks like GR made the legit ebook edition with ISBN 9780062906823 Invalid which would entail getting them to fix it...


Sidonie | 4 comments Ah, got it. I read a Kindle edition--I'll find the entry that matches and change my activity over to it. Thanks for the clarification! I wasn't sure whether editions are separate entries when it comes to reviews and such, it's good to know a little more about how that functions.
