Suz | 4428 comments This book needs an image The Beautiful Princess & Her B.F.F.. It's here https://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Prin...

Done :) That's a terrible cover though (IMO!!)


message 1753: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments I'm starting to read this edition (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...) of No Holly For Miss Quinn, but it has no blurb.

If someone would be able to cut and paste into the Goodreads edition above, the back of my copy says:

Miss Quinn liked being left to her own devices - especially at Christmas.

So it was with some foreboding that she agreed to look after her brother's three young children while his wife was in hospital.

However, Miss Quinn soon finds her stern sense of duty undermined by the preparations for Christmas, the infectious enthusiasm of the children and the unexpected arrival of an old flame.

The serenity of "Miss Read's" books, strengthened by a sturdy sense of reality, defies imitation.

Fixed 1912 and 1913. Sorry for the delay Suzanne, for some reason I didn't receive any notification of new posts, not even the little red (2)

Suz | 4428 comments Thanks Brenda. I saw all the editions but now mine is there thanks to you ;)


message 1778: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4428 comments This is one that needs to be added to GR please. Such a good book!

http://penguin.co.nz/books/the-prince....

It's a revamp of The Princess Bitchface Syndrome.

Many thanks!

The Princess Bitchface Syndrome 2.0

I'm wondering if I should combine the two Suzanne - they seem to be the same especially with the same cover. But it has the added author name - Elly - at the 2.0 after the title. If it's just a revamp, perhaps it should be... I'm really not sure!


message 1780: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4428 comments I think they're updating the content (social media, smart phones etc), thus the 2.0. It's a few years old so I'd say it should be as it's own... it's a title change? Possibly?!


message 1781: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4428 comments Brenda, I think you may be right, from the blurb: 'In this fully revised and expanded edition, leading adolescent psychologist Dr Michael Carr-Gregg and researcher Elly Robinson also discuss the single most prolific and influential factor of our times – technology.'

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
I might just leave them separated Suzanne... if another librarian picks it up and combines them, so be it :)

Tarmia | 221 comments Hey I just read Lord of the Flies and the copy I read was really old. This is its IBSN: 0571063667 which already has a cover, but its a hard cover so the image of this IBSN is without the sleeve cover. So I added another addition and was just wondering if you could combine the editions or add the number of pages to the edition I added. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Pages: 248
Thanks!

message 1789: by Kathryn (last edited Feb 06, 2017 04:58AM) (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments Is it possible to have 2 editions of a book with the same ISBN and different cover art?

I am reading Lord of the Flies. When I type in the ISBN of the book I am reading (9780571191475), I get this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... however the edition I'm reading has this cover: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and it is that cover shown for that ISBN on Book Depository: https://www.bookdepository.com/Lord-o...

I don't suppose it really matters, but it seems odd. Is it possible to change the cover for the ISBN 9780571191475 to the reddish-orange cover (the one without the words "50th Anniversary edition" on the cover)?


message 1790: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Yes - what usually happens is the book covers are updated so the new book has the same ISBN but a different cover. In this case it's called Alternate cover edition for ISBN **** as it isn't possible to create another book using the same ISBN.

And no we can't "change" the cover - but I can create the alternate edition for you if you'd like?


message 1791: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79994 comments Mod
Here you go Kathryn - I created the alternate for you

message 1794: by Dale (new)

Dale Harcombe | 6883 comments Can someone please add the Penguin paperback cover of The Rose Notes by Andrea Mayes. Published 2005. Much nicer than the blank cover. ISBN 0 14 300317 8
It is an orange and blue cover with a cottage in the left hand corner roses and a black and white snapshot of a couple kissing on the cover. A very interesting cover.

message 1798: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments Here's another weird one where my copy isn't the same as the one in the system.

I'm reading The Idea of Perfection, ISBN: 9781922182470. My edition has 432 pages, with this cover: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and this blurb:
***************

He was biting his bottom lip in his teeth, hard. She knew, without knowing, that he had grown the moustache to hide behind. It was just what she would have done if she had been born a man.

Patchwork expert Harley Savage has come to Karakarook, population 1374, to establish its heritage museum. Engineer Douglas Cheeseman has come to tear down its beloved heritage bridge. Crippled by self-doubt, weighed down by failed relationships, these awkward individuals might actually be perfect for each other. But will they realise it? Warm, hilarious and affecting, The Idea of Perfection won the Orange Prize and announced Kate Grenville as a major international novelist.

*************
Would someone be able to create an alternate cover edition, please?

Here you go Kathryn :) I put it down as paperback, but let me know if that's wrong won't you.
