Brenda (b) (brenda_b) | 7 comments I'd like to verify if Goodreads policy about spicy and sweet versions of the same story has changed or not.
This author:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
has spicy and sweet versions of many of her books. In the past, editions with different heat levels were combined as per these posts:
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
There are librarian notes on a number of Angela Casella's books saying not to combine them, so I'm confused as to the current policy.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 8112 comments Interesting question. I've been following the existing policy as clarified by Rivka in your links. If the policy has changed, it hasn't been announced. I suspect the librarian notes are in error.

If I may make a suggestion - you might consider moving this question to the "Questions (from Librarians only)" folder and adding Attn Jaclyn to the subject line.

Scott | 14058 comments I see no reason they shouldn't be combined. It's the same as a novel that has deleted parts restored, or one that has been somewhat updated in a new edition.

Brenda (b) (brenda_b) | 7 comments Thank you Dobby & Scott.
I'm going to combine them as per Rivka's posts because they're the same story with the exception of the s*x scenes.

Scott | 14058 comments Yes, six scenes would not be enough to separate. Maybe if it were a hundred scenes.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 8112 comments I just spewed coffee on my screen. Thanks, Scott. You're a treasure.
