Agnes M (unchartedwaters) | 10 comments I read this book in one language and when I began to read it in another, the entry overrode my original data. Is there any way to keep both entries or would I have to separate the editions?

Georgiana (georgianaogrean) | 14 comments There's currently no way to show that you read two different editions. You could mention this in your review though.

Different editions of the same book should stay combined.

Sandi Actually it IS possible to shelf the same book twice, or we wouldn't need the "find duplicates" button. I have some books in both German and French shelved. You just can't review the same book twice.

I'm not sure how I added them both though, I think it might happen when you rate both editions (it will show as already rated, just click on the stars anyway). Use the "find duplicates" function on your "my books" page to see if it worked.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments You can add both editions to your bookshelf and review them separately. Go to the book page, in the middle of the page is your review section there are two options review this edition and swap. Enter your review for the first edition add to your shelf then go to the book page for the other edition and review that one.
