Thanks, so much.

Glad I could help, Donna Jo.

The Titanic Murders
I'm not sure how to add the pages - it has 251 in the regular part of the book, and 24 in the epilogue. The cover is this:
http://www.amazon.com/The-Titanic-Mur...
I'm not sure what other information should be added!
thanks!

ETA: Got cover from WorldCat. I am glad you included the amazon link so I knew which cover to claim. That book has multiple covers out there!

Thanks so much, Bea! You're fantastic! I'll remember that about using information from booksellers next time.

Here's the edition.

The Girl With Borrowed Wings

Cast, in Order of Disappearance by Simon Brett
I have no idea to which book this description belongs, but definitly not to this Simon Brett mystery. This is the real description of this novel:
Who killed Marius Steen, the theatrical tycoon with a fortune to leave his young mistress Jacqui? And who killed Bill Sweet, the shady blackmailer with a supply of compromising photographs? Charles Paris, a middle-aged actor who keeps going on booze and women, takes to detection, by assuming a variety of roles, among them that of a Scotland Yard Detective-Sergeant, and the results are both comic and dramatic. As the mythical McWhirter of the Yard, he actually precipitates the crime; as one of the blackmailer’s victims, he finds himself in bed with the blackmailer’s wife; as a small-part player in a horror film (The Zombie Walks), he gets shot at by a murderer. And he arrives at the solution by way of the petrol crisis and an abortive attack of the German measles. It’s a light-hearted frolic that is, at the same time, a beautifully ingenious puzzle, and it fizzes with fun and wit.

Thank you!!!!

I'm working on getting these updated for you. The thing about the covers is - we are not supposed to change covers for a given ISBN because there can be different covers for one ISBN, so what we do is create an alternate cover edition, leaving the ISBN number blank (since ISBN numbers cannot be used twice on Goodreads), and we put a note in the description that it is an alternate cover edition for ISBN: XXXXXXXXXX So, you can see that a librarian already did this with Birdsong - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/93... That is an alternate cover edition of the ISBN you have, so if you'd like that cover on your shelves, you can switch to that edition. Same with The Hunger Games - this is the alternate cover edition for the ISBN you listed as well - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... I hope that makes sense. I make alternate cover editions for my books all the time. I hate that publishers use more than one cover for a single ISBN!


And to answer your question, about Bob the Cat - subtitle does belong in the title. Good catches on the authors' names in titles. Those definitely don't belong!
Let me know if you need anything else!


Done

Wow, that was quick! Thank you, Elizabeth.


In the future, if you would like to post about a Goodreads problem, you can check the Feedback Group: http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1

Thanks, Kara!
I am also having this problem, glad it's not just me!

Back to your post - click the add book/author link, and add any book whatsoever to your post. Replace the title in brackets with the title of your book, and then replace the number in brackets with the number you found in the URL.

Would a librarian please change the originally published date? I would like to use this book for the classics task.
Thank You.

Fixed :)

You are always such a help in this thread, Vicky. Thanks.

My copy also has a different cover to what appears in Goodreads under the same ISBN. This is the cover of my copy: http://www.amazon.ca/Twelve-Justin-Cr...
Would it be possible to make the change? Thank you!

I added your edition. Librarians are not supposed to change covers for a given ISBN because unfortunately, a single ISBN can have more than one cover, so we have to create an alternate cover edition. I created one for you here - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...
