I've combined them all and taken the ISBN from Amazon - you gave me the ISBN10, and GR wouldn't accept it, so I added the ISBN13 which is the same but with 978 in front :) There is no kindle or ecopy that I can see, to add the ASIN and ISBN to the other copies. If you know of any other than the paperback, can you let me know and I'll add them to those which have been added. Can you suggest to Hazel that in the future she ask a librarian instead of adding multiple copies? Thanks Anne :)

Thanks so much, Brenda! You are, as usual, terrific! Yes, I'll tell Hazel.

Thanks Brenda, sorry for the trouble. I took those numbers straight from the book and double checked, and yes Succession only has 12 numbers so is printed wrong on the inside cover. I am really enjoying Unbound Justice and will be looking forward to following up with the next in the trilogy.
Thanks again for sorting them out ;)

Carolyn | 9840 comments Hi Librarians - don't know if you can help with this but I've just read Dead I Well May Be by Adrian Mckinty. This version of the book - the paperback has the correct description but the kindle version Dead I Well May Be (which I read) has a description for a totally different book (possibly one called Fifty Grand).

It sounds really good and the author may be giving a talk at my local library so I’ll need to buy a copy if I’m going.

That would be good Veronica!!


message 2120: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn | 3569 comments I just finished The Love That I Have by James Moloney last night (and it is brilliant!!) and I realised that while the edition I read is in the system, it only says "synopsis to follow" for the blurb!!

Would someone please be able to add the following to this version: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...? This is the blurb from the library page where I borrowed the book.

'WINTER CALLS FOR A GOOD BOOK, AND WE'VE FOUND ONE TO RIVAL THE BOOK THIEF'

— The Australian Women's Weekly


Margot Baumann has left school to take up her sister's job in the mailroom of a large prison. But this is Germany in 1944, and the prison is Sachsenhausen concentration camp near Berlin.
Margot is shielded from the camp's brutality as she has no contact with prisoners. But she does handle their mail and, when given a cigarette lighter and told to burn the letters, she is horrified by the callous act she must carry out with her own hands. This is especially painful since her brother was taken prisoner at Stalingrad and her family have had no letters from him. So Margot steals a few letters, intending to send them in secret, only to find herself drawn to their heart-rending words of hope, of despair, and of love.

This is how Margot comes to know Dieter Kleinschmidt - through the beauty and the passion of his letters to his girlfriend.

And since his girlfriend is also named Margot, it is like reading love letters written for her.

From award-winning Australian author James Moloney, comes a fresh and compelling story about love, loss and profound bravery. For fans of The Book Thief, this powerful and heartbreaking story set during WW2 stays with you long after the final page is read.

MORE PRAISE FOR THE LOVE THAT I HAVE:


'a beautiful, heartbreaking and affecting read. ... Definitely one for book club, just don't forget the tissues.' — The Australian Women's Weekly

'a heartbreaking, harrowing and deeply hopeful story ... for readers of The Book Thief, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas' — Books+Publishing

'A compelling and emotionally charged story of young love and survival, bravery and humanity. The closing months of the Second World War in Germany are seen from a surprising and fresh perspective. I was holding back tears from page 72.' — Shona Martyn, Spectrum Editor, The Sydney Morning Herald

'a profoundly hopeful and humanity-affirming novel, portraying the equalising power that compassion has above all injustice. This is a novel for people who enjoyed The Book Thief, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, All the Light We Cannot See, and more recently, The Tattooist of Auschwitz.' — Better Reading

'This is historical fiction at its best - thoughtfully written, relevant today, throwing new light on well-worn themes of love, loyalty and friendship. It is also a gut-wrenching read that is up there with Anne Frank's diary for immediacy and impact. Recommended.' — CBCA Reading Time

Done Kathryn :) Thanks for the information. I left off the reviews etc as it's the blurb that's needed, nothing else - and I agree, a brilliant book!

 Li'l Owl | 2504 comments Hiya, Brenda!

Can you please add these two books. They're on NetGalley but they're nowhere to be found here. Thanks much!
No worries no hurries!

9781683319597
And Then You Were Gone by R. J. Jacobs

And Then You Were Gone by R. J. Jacobs And Then You Were Gone by R. J. Jacobs

and the ISBN for Little Darlings doesn't match anything. The one in NetGalley is 9781683319979 which is already on here - Little Darlings A Novel by Melanie Golding Little Darlings: A Novel although a completely different cover to the one on NG. Can you put the link to your ISBN here so I can chase it up please? Thanks :)


message 2129: by Li'l Owl (new)

 Li'l Owl | 2504 comments Not sure what you're needing, Brenda?
This is the ISBN off the NetGally book.

9781683319979

I hate it when they publish different covers! Especially when the book won't be released until April 30, 2019!


message 2130: by Li'l Owl (new)

 Li'l Owl | 2504 comments Thanks for adding And Then You Were Gone. 😊


message 2131: by Li'l Owl (new)

 Li'l Owl | 2504 comments Brenda, I'm just going to use the ISBN for the hardcover for now. 9781683319979
At least it has the right cover.

Little Darlings by Melanie Golding
Little Darlings by Melanie Golding

I'm not sure why the NG ISBN doesn't bring up the correct cover. Maybe it's too early?
The release date isn't until April 30th, 2019.

Thanks! 😊


message 2132: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79997 comments Mod
If you look up at your post #2295 you gave me a different ISBN for Little Darlings. The one you have stated in post #2297 is the correct one and it was already on GR but with a different cover... so you must have given me the incorrect one first I think :)

I don't think this book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... should have a subtitle, it should just be The Court Reporter. There area a couple of editions which will need to be tweaked.
