Get Even Get Even by Martina Cole by Martina Cole

It was actually in the system, but as "Untitled Copy" - so fixed it:) And combined with the others...

B the BookAddict (bthebookaddict) Charlotte Bronteová, Charlotte Brontee and Charlotte Brontës all appear to be errors in the input data for Charlotte Brontë. What a nightmare! All linked to Jane Eyre and Villette books.

Could someone please correct this? Or do I need a 'look out, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's a' Super Librarian?:)

Carolyn | 9840 comments Hello Librarians! I've just read Village Vets by Anthony Bennett and J Carroll, a pair of Aussie vets. I think the book has been ascribed to a different Anthony Bennett who writes about US politics. Can this be fixed?

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
I'll have a look Carolyn:)

message 1416: by Rory (new)

Rory McKay | 2 comments I need help - and not sure where to ask. SO here goes - this is NOT MY ACCOUNT! Yet whenever I log in with my Facebook details, this is the account I end up in. This account belongs to someone in the same house, but different emails, different accounts.
Some how HIS account now comes up when I sign in, and his says he needs to reset password.

How do I get my profile back? Theres no way to contact good reads. I'm totally lost.


message 1417: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Rory I'll check it out when I get onto my laptop. Are you unable to go to the Feedback Group? Sorry I can't link it for you but they would help.


message 1418: by Mikana (new)

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments I reset BOTH passwords - and then had to re-link with Facebook. All sorted now, but was so frustrating. Sorry but thanks for looking. It was like both FB accounts had linked to the one GR account.


message 1419: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
So Mikana, was that you under Rory's profile - or is his a separate problem?


message 1420: by Mikana (new)

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments No it was me - sorry should've been more clear. It had hooked my FB to his GR for some reason, but it's all sorted now - thank you anyways.


message 1421: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
That's fine Mikana....if you'd have put your name in the first post I would have known;) LOL! Glad it's sorted for you now!


message 1422: by Mikana (new)

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments hehe - FB has My book on his Currently Reading list cos of the mix up. Not sure how they got swapped, can only assume it has something to do with using the same computer to log in from.


message 1423: by Rory (new)

Rory McKay | 2 comments okay - not solved, my account is linked with the wrong FB account. I got into my account - but when I signed into FB and then went back - it's not me again. What the heck do I do now?


message 1424: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Mikana - is that you again? You need to go to the Feedback group - try this thread - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Please make sure you give them more information than here...who you are etc. Good luck!


message 1425: by Mikana (new)

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments Thanks - I'll post the question there.

Would you like to add it to the thread and bookshelves?

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments Could you add a books for me? http://www.booktopia.com.au/art-thera...

I can't find it on Goodreads with or without the "u". I imagine there is an influx of these type of books being added to goodreads with the increase in popularity, but I love the above book best so far. I find them good to do whilst listening to an audiobook.

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Here you go Mikana:) A quick and easy way to see if it's in the database is to use the ISBN or ASIN if you have it. That way it'll go to the correct copy (if it's there) or you'll discover it's not!

Art Therapy Colouring Book: Menagerie & More Art Therapy Colouring Book Menagerie & More by Hinkler


message 1430: by Mikana (new)

Mikana (mikanakat) | 72 comments Thank you - I'll try that next time, I had entered several versions of the wording, and nothing came up. May I ask how we add a cover to a book? the audiobook The War Of The Worlds doesn't have an image, despite there being several versions over the years. Do we ask an librarian or can we add an edition?


message 1431: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
You ask in here, just as you've done:) I'll fix it for you!

I'll do it now and get back to you..

Here you go Rita...there was actually the correct one already in the system - 3 in total. The one you linked hadn't been searched for I don't think:)

Great South Land How Dutch Sailors found Australia and an English Pirate almost beat Captain Cook ... by Rob Mundle Great South Land: How Dutch Sailors found Australia and an English Pirate almost beat Captain Cook ... by Rob Mundle

Saw this one in the Big W catalogue and thought it sounded good!

No need to feel a goose - I'm glad you brought it to my attention so it could be fixed and combined:) They were all separate!

Rita. It is a fascinating history, people often only know of Cook.

The blurb says "Expected publication: October 25th 2016 by ABC Books" huh? Also do we know genre it comes under?

message 1444: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments I was just wondering whether one of the librarians can tell me whether it is easy to add a book to a quote or to delete a quote? I can't do either (even though the quote is one that I added - it is the last quote ["Americans...publish more books than any other country, but the per capita figure is surprisingly low...."] on this page: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/sear...) and I inadvertently forgot to add the title of the book that the quote I added came from The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop: A Memoir, a History. I could just leave it, but if it's easy to add the book, then that's great, or if someone can delete the quote, then I can re-add it and include the title! But if neither is easy, then I'll just leave it as it is!

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
You'll need to go to the librarians group Kathryn I'm sorry. They are the ones who will delete/adjust or whatever you need to do... https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...

Here's the thread that you can post in:) https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
