Thanks Brenda, she'll appreciate it, as do I :)

Don't worry about that, I left it at your page count as it's in your hands:)

Here it is but it won't accept the photo. Too large or invalid is what it says. Perhaps if you send it to me, it might be better...

The King of Lies

Here you go :) Couldn't find the publisher though...

Wood Green Wood Green by Sean Rabin


message 1662: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4428 comments Good morning Librarians. Could I please have this one added, the only ones existing are e-versions. https://www.dymocks.com.au/book/ugly-....

Just don't have page count as my copy is hidden in my messy shelf, but need to find it as it's my next read. I'll update that when I find it. Many thanks :)

Brenda would you take look at this one. The blurb does not belong to this book.

Thanks. I just noticed it when I was reading Patty's review and I went to check if I had reviewed it. Then I looked at the blurb and thought what on earth is that!!!

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
I have no idea what it was or how it got there! Was definitely weird! But gone now :)


message 1671: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
It's already in the database Michael - checked with the ISBN - Drawn Inward and Other Poems :)


message 1672: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Use the ISBN - it works every time!


message 1673: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Michael, I am just doing it, but it's a comic. I'm pretty sure comics aren't to be added into the system. Let me check before I do it :)


message 1674: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
OK it's a blurred consensus but it seems "if it has an ISBN it's fine" so I'll continue to add it :)


message 1677: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Veronica, this one is the paperback one :) The link you gave me is for the print copy with the same ISBN as shown in the database. So I checked further and it's the paperback one. So I changed ebook to paperback :)


message 1678: by Veronica ⭐️ (new)

Veronica ⭐️ | 2384 comments Thanks Brenda. I picked it up at Vinnies today


message 1679: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Wow! That's only just been released! I read all three individually but the three pack was only recently released!


message 1680: by Veronica ⭐️ (new)

Veronica ⭐️ | 2384 comments I was very happy to pay $3 for it


message 1681: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
I'll say so! $1 each and they're more than novellas :) Great pick up Veronica!


message 1682: by B the BookAddict (new)

B the BookAddict (bthebookaddict) Need some Lib help here please: re this author's books on link; https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

Overcoming Passive-Aggression: How to Stop Hidden Anger from Spoiling Your Relationships, Career and Happiness, The Angry Child: Regaining Control When Your Child is Out of Control, Overcoming Passive-Aggression: How to Stop Hidden Anger from Spoiling Your Relationships, Career and Happiness all belong to this person Timothy F Murphy (not on GR) Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy...

As to sorting out whether all the remaining books actually belong to the Tim Murphy on GR, I haven't attempted that bundle yet but Christodora: A Novel seems to be the debut novel by this guy: https://timmurphynycwriter.com/

Apologies for this request but GR seems to present me with these author inconsistencies every now and then.


message 1683: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Bette would you mind posting this request in the Librarian's group please? I know nothing about this author and am likely to get it in a worse mess! They'll fix it easier than I would... thanks!


message 1684: by B the BookAddict (last edited Jun 25, 2016 12:50PM) (new)

B the BookAddict (bthebookaddict) Hmm, I though that might be your response. It took me quite some unraveling to work out who was who and wrote what, too!

Copied request to Librarian group.


message 1685: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Thanks Bette :) Better that than me mess it up and get an email from them!

message 1692: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments I'm reading Mary Bennet by Jennifer Paynter and hadn't realised she was Australian until I read the author bio in the book, as there is no information about her on GR. I was just wondering whether her author profile is one of the ones that a librarian can edit? Because if so, if I type the author bio in here, is it possible to have someone cut and paste it onto her page?


message 1693: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Yes I can edit it Kathryn, but it might be better (if you have one) to supply me with a link. As it's sometimes needed on the author's page for verification and proof of where it came from..

I'll have a search to see what I can find :)


message 1694: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
OK I've found it including her photo so I'll add it all :) Thanks!


message 1695: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments I don't have a link, Brenda, as it's in the front of my book... I can take a photo of it, if you need to read it for yourself...

This is it:
Jennifer Paynter was born and educated in Sydney. She has previously written two stage plays: When Are We Going to Manly? (produced by the Griffin Theatre Company in 1984 and nominated for the 1984 Sydney Theatre Critics’ Circle award and the 1985 New South Wales Premier’s Literary Awards), and Balancing Act, produced by the Canberra Theatre Company in 1990 and adapted for radio by the ABC. The author of several anthologised short stories, she lives in Sydney. Mary Bennet is her first novel.

Thanks Kathryn, I took a little from your bio as well and added it in :)

Carolyn | 9840 comments Could one of our clever librarians please add this book:
Lolcatz, Santa and Death by Dog by Andrew Masterson.

Not totally sure that it's this author Andrew Masterson as he seems to write crime and this is labelled science and humour, although his blurb also mentions that he writes non-fiction.

ISBN: 9781925324860
Published by Random House Australia

Thanks!

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Done Carolyn :) Lolcatz, Santa, and Death by Dog: Strange and True Tales from Science and Technology - I did some checking and it's the same author :)
