It is really easy. It gives you all the boxes to fill in and you just need the book name, isbn/asin, description etc and then just hit save! You should try it.
Marked by Rebecca Zanetti, ISBN 1601832311, doesn't have page numbers listed for it's GR paperback. There are 304 pp, if someone could add this to the record.Thanks, it's my "guilty pleasures" book. :)
The librarian resource (Worldcat) lists 288 pages for that ISBN. GR does not count any advertising pages. Can you re-check the pages in your book?
I'm reading the e-book, I don't have access to the print one. Amazon said 304, but 288 works for me, if you think that's more accurate.Thanks for looking into this for me.
Teri-k, since Worldcat is more accurate than Amazon for page numbers, I have used the 288 and updated the book.
Thanks so much! As long as it's over 250 pages, it works for me. :)Bea wrote: "Teri-k, since Worldcat is more accurate than Amazon for page numbers, I have used the 288 and updated the book."

Done
It took me a while to find my audio book because the ISBN # isn't listedI think it's this one, however
Me Before You
Can someone add the ISBN : 978-1-4703-3371-3
I'd do it myself but couldn't figure out how to do it.
Worldcat states that the ISBN-13 9781470333713 is an Audio CD published by Recorded Books. It has 12 discs. I did not find that edition listed and so added it for you. You will be able to find it by the ISBN number above.Can you verify who the narrator(s) is and what the cover is like? I will update those portions later.

ME (white letters)
BEFORE (black letters)
YOU (white letters
The title words are sized so they fit exactly inside the box. They are in a serif font ... but NOT the more frilly font that is used on the hardcover edition.
Then under the title box is author name all in capitals
JOJO MOYES (in white)
And beneath her name is:
PERFORMED BY VARIOUS NARRATORS
On the back of the audio it states
Narrated by
Susan Lyons
Andrew Wincott
Alex Tregear
Anna Bentinck
Steven Crossley
Owen Lindsay
I did look through all the editions shown on goodreads and none of them has this cover.
Thanks, Bea, for your help.
BC, I will add the narrators and start searching for the cover. Can't promise I will find it, but I will try. Found cover on publisher site. Book should be correct now.
Me Before You
Thank you, BeaHere's another request - this time for page numbers
(ISBN 0060539054)I have this hardcover edition from the library; without the acknowledgements it is 413 pages long
THIS hardcover edition:
(ISBN 0641771932) is in Goodreads with 416 pages
BC, the first ISBN comes up in Worldcat as 416 pages. Acknowleddgements are counted in GR, so that might explain the difference. I was unable to confirm the second ISBN as it is not on Worldcat, Amazon or HarperCollins.

Thanks ... the first ISBN is the actual edition I have, so that works for me! (the challenge requires a book over 300 pages)
Can anyone add page count to the following edition :The Rice Mother
i have the book from library and it has 580 pages.
Hi! I'm reading Ark Royal, but the paperback version is not on goodreads.
Amazon link: Ark Royal
I would really appreciate if this version could be added to goodreads.
Thank you!!

Here is another one Gung Ho!.
The book has 187 pages. I got a copy from the library
Can you add the page number?
The Invisible LibraryI think this should be marked as being part of a series, as the book description calls it a "first installment"
Trish wrote: "The Invisible LibraryI think this should be marked as being part of a series, as the book description calls it a "first installment""
Agreed apparently there will be at least three books according to the publisher who bought the rights and the author's website. Added it as Invisible Library Series for now...
Countrymen by Bo LidegaardThe Goodreads listing shows only a Kindle edition, but it doesn't correctly link through to Amazon.co.uk. When I search on Amazon.co.uk myself, I discover that it has a Hardcover, Paperback (available for pre-order), and Kindle editions. There are two different covers than are shown on the Goodreads listing.
I don't know if the paperback can be added or not, since the release date is so far out, but can the Hardcover and the UK Kindle variant added?
Could someone combine the entries for Suitor by Design and Suitor by Design? One's print, the other Kindle.Also can you check that clicking on the Author's name takes you to the correct author? There is more than one person with the same name, and one goes to the correct entry and one doesn't.
Thanks!
Bea wrote: "done"Thanks for fixing that. I confess I thought I was losing my marbles at first, till I figured out what was going on. lol
This shows as having 256 pages.I have this exact edition (ISBN 1611090772) ... and it has 311 pages (without the acknowledgments, source bibiolography or author & translator bios)
It doesn't make any difference for the task I'm using it for, but it might for someone else.
This book has an incorrect "first published" dateRed Sky at Morning
I know I read this in 1969. And I saw the movie which was released in 1971. So this cannot have been "first published in 1972"
Per Wikipedia it was first published in 1968.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Sky_...
Can this be corrected?
I took care of correcting the date. Worldcat also had it as originally published in 1968 so I changed it.

I'm reading this edition of Airs Above the Ground and it has 255 pages, but the length is not listed on GR. I'd appreciate it if someone could add it. Thanks.
I plan on reading People Of The Wolf for this challenge, in e-book from the library. I'll have to link to the most popular mmp for length, which is the link I gave above. But there are no page numbers there. I'd really appreciate someone looking up and adding the length to this edition for me.Thanks!

I know they sometimes prefer to use World Cat for page numbers, but as long as it's over 100 pages I'm good. :)
Teri-K, you are correct. Librarians perfer the page count from Worldcat. I checked; it is 435. Pages changed, but you are still good.
I don't have access to the correct first publication date for this title, but I'm pretty sure that 1900 isn't right. :) The rest of the series is from this century. Bride for a KnightThanks for checking!
