Lillie Alexander (lilliealexanderauthor) | 12 comments Hi, I'd be grateful if could remove/delete my book from my bookshelf - Celestial Chaos (ISBN13 9798876409201), which has been unpublished on Amazon KDP.

"Unpublished" means that it was never published. If it was published then we would not delete it.

Lillie Alexander (lilliealexanderauthor) | 12 comments It will be misleading readers as it wont ever be available anymore. do you need prove from my Amazon Publishing dashboard?


message 7: by Lillie (new)

Lillie Alexander (lilliealexanderauthor) | 12 comments as its not available for purchase anymore how can I remove it? also, a new version unrelated to this book will be publiahed soon and it will confuse readers.

Scott | 11328 comments How is it misleading to say that a book exists?
It doesn't matter if it is not available new any more.
Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the purpose of Goodreads.

Lillie Alexander (lilliealexanderauthor) | 12 comments can it be merged then with the new one? it will have a new story/cover and IBSN number?

There are lots of books in the database that are not available anymore. Goodreads is not a sales site, but a database where readers can track/list/review their books.
