Librarians for GR in our group - New requests? Chat here!
an one of our lovely librarians please add the cover of Inadvertent Things. You can find it here. http://andrewlansdown.com/poetry/poet... Such a gorgeous cover. Thanks. I will be starting on it soon.
Has Goodreads achieved sentience?? I just went to finally begin the job of getting my brand-new book up on the site, and found it's already there, less than 24 hours after it was published.Is there some kind of automated process, or did some kind librarian fairy wave their magic wand for me?
No automated process; probably a librarian noticed it and put it up for you. Unless your publisher did it, as they do that as well:)
Would one of our fantastic librarians please be able to combine these editions: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...? Thank you!
They have that feature "down for maintenance" Kathryn! I tried to combine last night, just tried for you..still down :( I'll get to it hopefully soon :)

Brenda wrote: "Still can't! Will keep trying until I can..."Is the "combine" feature working yet? Still no need to hurry - I'd just temporarily forgotten and remembered it now!

Thanks for the reminder Kathryn (I had forgotten too;)) Yes it's done!

Thanks, Brenda! You're a gem!
No problems Kathryn - I did the others too, but didn't write the first one I had problems with down, and can't remember what it was!!!
Good Morning :)Have just recieved book The Hunted by Aussie author James Phelan James Phelan which is the #2 book in Jed Walker series after #1 The Spy.
The Hunted pub. Feb. 2015 ISBN 9780733632334 (Trade Paperback)
Have difficulty finding The Spy also as search add book/author doen't show it...though sometimes shows a James Phalen who is not the same author.

The Hunted by James Phelanand
The Spy by James Phelan"Thanks Brenda, well done :)
You're welcome:) And I will say thank YOU as well, because when I searched for them, I found them on Booktopia's site....after I did it all, I purchased The Spy through Booko (free delivery) as they had "1st in the series" for only $7.95!! So perhaps I shouldn't thank you;)

Yes thats him Veronica, have you read them all? That is a series of thirteen books called Thirteen
..13 is the 1st of 13.
Hi Brenda, when you have time could you possibly mark this book Nine letters long by J.C. Burke as the sequel to The Red Cardigan?They are both about Evie.
Many thanks in advance..and no rush :)
While I'm not Brenda I have done that for you Julie - I can't find anywhere what the series is actually named, but it is described as the sequel, so I just called it the Evie series.
Thanks Liam:) Do you know how/do you do merging authors Liam? Because the two the girls are talking about above - https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... and https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... are one and the same; I was going to go to the Librarian group to get them merged, but if you can do it, would you mind? Thanks...
I dunno how to merge them, I think that's something only super librarians can do.For individual books though, for future reference, if you go into the Edit Details for one book from each of them you'll see that the real James Phelan is put in the Author field with two spaces between his names - "James--Phelan", whilst the second James Phelan just has the one space - "James-Phelan". That's how they get around having so many authors with the same name and such.
I'd say that since the non-official one came first, there are probably some books in there written by a James Phelan which isn't the Aussie. Best to give it to the mods to handle.
Thanks Liam, yes I've done that before with the "many named the same" authors! I thought you may have been a super:) I'll head there and ask the question...
Thanks Liam and Brenda :)Good job, I would have just called them the Evie series also, anyone thats read them will get it :)
Hi Brenda, just wondering if you could add some more info to this book's link A Saucepan In The Sky by Brian Nicholls, there is a lot of info, including book cover picture and author picture to be found here if that helps....http://www.writersandebooks.com/books...
Brenda wrote: "I just did Jools:)"Lol..puff, puff, just saw it, I can't keep up with you Brenda!! :)
I'm trying to find the right edition for this bookhttps://www.netgalley.com/catalog/sho...
I think the top edition could be it, but the ISBN is different...

I have some newbie questions. I'd like to add my upcoming book (my previous publication was added by someone else). It's for kindle and will have no ISBN. I don't even have an ASIN ..."
You can add it without the ASIN now and ask a librarian to edit it in later
