Bea @Book Concierge:

NOW, going to the correct listing for this title:
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

The third listed book is the hardcover edition - Miss Julia Hits the Road
It is listed with a "series" that isn't anywhere on the book, and isn't the correct series name. Also, it seems to be missing a correct description.


I took care of this issue. I also added covers for all the editions listed without covers if I could find them. (Still several missing covers.)


message 1802: by Bea (new)

Bea @Book Concierge:

The SECOND listing (with 18 editions) is actually for a completely different book (Miss Julia Delivers the Goods) ... but when you click on the 18 editions link, you'll see THIS title as the 7th edition listed ... obviously in the wrong place entirely.

However, I could not find a way to change the series number. I suggest posting this in the GR Librarian thread (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...). You might have to start a new thread for this issue.

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 4447 comments Thank you, Bea ....

Can't imagine why that one e-book edition says it is book # 10 in the series, when it is really # 4.

I'll try to remember to go over the librarians group and ask for help there.

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 4447 comments Can someone update the "first published" date on this book: The Hidden Child

Currently it just shows 2007, but I believe THIS is the first edition:
Tyskungen with a publication date of April 19, 2007.

Thank you.

Blood Work by Michael Lister does not have an edition with page numbers. Could you add them for me?

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3675 comments Hi all. I want to use The Cat of Christmas Future in the Winter Challenge, but it doesn't currently have a page count in GR.

However, there is an Amazon record which gives the page count at 160 pages: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Christmas-Fu...

Could one of you lovely librarians add the page count in GR for me? Thank you.

Meg, Worldcat says this book has 654 pages, not 553. That's over a 100 pages different. Are you sure your book ISBN matches the GR entry?

Amanda, GR does not allow covers from booksellers due to copyright issues. However, if you own the book, you can scan the cover and upload it to your profile and a librarian can add it from there.

Or if there is a Brazilian Amazon which has your cover, we could use that source as Amazon owns GR.

Sorry, I finally checked my copy and it wasn't the right ISBN. Blade Of Fortriu. Book Ii Of The Bridei Chronicle is my edition.
As well as adding the page numbers (553) the title needs to be fixed to remove the replication of the series title. Thanks :)

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 4447 comments Could someone correct the title of this edition of the book -
Chocolate: A True Story of Two Sisters, Tons of Treats, and the Little Shop That Could

The actual title is CHOCOLATE, CHOCOLATE: A true Story (etc), as in THIS edition:
Chocolate Chocolate: The True Story of Two Sisters, Tons of Treats, and the Little Shop That Could

The repeated word is the name of their boutique chocolate shop, which is the focus of this memoir.

Thanks in advance.

I found the page count for the paperback that you linked, but Worldcat has the "hardcover" listed as an ebook and thus no page number. Neither of the two books with ISBNs listed are found at Henry Holt publishers (Metropolitan Books is an imprint of HH). Henry Holt only shows a paperback of this book.
