Thanks Brenda - Catherine Lee mentioned there is a cookbook of recipes from Getaway Bay on my review of Death at the Dog Show so I had a look for it when it wasn't on her Grace York author site.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Fair enough :) Glad you found it then.

[Sharah]

Could a librarian please add the page count for this book, 302. The Last Resort Thank you.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Done Sharah 😊

[Sharah]

Thanks Brenda.

[Em__Jay]

I am neither a librarian or an author but I noticed something that needs to be tied up. Can I ask here, or should I go through some other centralised link?

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

What was it you needed to know Em?

[Em__Jay]

Thanks for responding, Brenda.

There are 2 separate entries for Maybe The Horse Will Talk by Elliot Perlman that I believe should be merged.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

All done :)

If you ever have any bookish problems that a librarian can fix, just pop your question in here. We'll do our best :)

Haha! Thanks :)

I just added a new version of a book, but it has two titles and I added it as the wrong title!!

This is the version I added: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... (with this ISBN: 9781486278749, just to be sure) but this edition should have the title as The Christmas Angel, NOT Christmas in Cornwall. I'm also wondering whether the cover image I added was correctly added as it isn't loading for me... The cover is this one: https://fe.bolindadigital.com/wldcs_b...

Would someone please be able to fix my mistakes up??! Thank you!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Fixed Kathryn - the cover was fine too :)

The Christmas Angel

Wonderful, thanks, Brenda - and obviously I was just too impatient regarding the cover!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

You could have been - it apparently takes around 15 minutes for it to show up :)

Brenda wrote: "You could have been - it apparently takes around 15 minutes for it to show up :)"

I know it says that, but I think it's for searching purposes that it takes a while. Normally once I've added a book and clicked "save", the next screen has the cover I've added there, but it just wasn't showing up this time - but nor did it have a greyed out cover like when you've not added one. It just had a blank space!! Which is what made me think it was just slow to load - possibly my internet might be a bit slow today - it's a bit slow loading other things on GR as well, although that could still be GR that's slow rather than the internet, of course...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

It's always an either/or with GR isn't it ;)

[Tarmia]

Hello, can someone please add the pages (433) to this edition of Goodnight, Beautiful?
ISBN 9781847442727

For some reason it has 'no pages.'
Thank you in advance!

[Suz]

Hello librarians. I sat next to a colleague at a work function yesterday, and she told me about her Phd. I have borrowed it and now would like to add to her author profile, okayed by her. Here is the author Andrea Connor

Here is the bio: https://www.westernsydney.edu.au/ics/...

Thank you!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Done Suzanne :) https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

[Suz]

Thank you Brenda. On the author profile, could you please just leave the top book on, and remove the other book where it says she is the illustrator? Many thanks.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Give it 15 minutes or so and it'll be gone Suzanne :)

Hi there,

Two extra listings have popped up for my books. Is it possible to delete them?

The new ones, (which need to be deleted - they have no reviews), are Esme's Wish (Esme Trilogy Book 1) at

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

and Esme's Gift (Esme Trilogy Book 2) at

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

The current, correct listings (to remain - they have reviews) are Esme's Wish at

https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/sho...

and Esme's Gift at

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Thought I'd lost all my reviews there for a moment...

Thanks for your help!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

There seems to be a problem with GR at the moment Elizabeth - I'll check it again tomorrow and fix it for you :)

[Elizabeth]

Thanks!

[Elizabeth]

I have a review copy of Esme's Gift for you too, Brenda, if you'd like one. The second book was released today! DM me tomorrow if you do :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I fixed your author name - the two new ones came in from Amazon so the spaces between your christian and surnames weren't there. I just need to combine them, which is what isn't working at the moment :)

Congrats on your new book too - I didn't know you had the second out :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

And now it's worked! I've combined the extra edition with the original in both cases. The new book is now a kindle and a paperback edition.

The new was only added to Amazon on the weekend Probably why the new listings turned up. Thanks for your help.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

You're welcome :)

Actually that particular ISBN was marked as an ebook, so I changed it to paperback :)

Hi Brenda - Kathryn tells me you can fix up book issues?
Could you remove the duplicate entry for 'Many Rivers To Cross' - it's showing up twice in my 'To Read' list - only noticed as I got a copy for Christmas! Thanks.

Combined

FYI you can't copy/paste links here on GR, luckily you mentioned the book by name also :)

Both those links go to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Jane :)

But you can fix your problem yourself. Go to "My Books" at the top of the page. Scroll right down, looking at the left hand side past your shelves and you'll see Your reading activity then Add books then Tools

Click "find duplicates". It will say "you have *** duplicates in your shelves". To the right of all books listed, it says, "view all my editions". When you click on that it shows you what your duplicates are. Then you can remove the one you don't want :)

Another way - slightly less complicated - which only shows the one you "ask" for is: Go to My Books, in the small box "search and add books" put the name of the book you want to find, and click "search". Then it should show up two of the one you're looking for. Just click the "X" on the far right hand side to remove.

The first way is a good way to remove ALL duplicates. The second removes only the ones you know about :)

Good luck!

Thanks Brenda. I couldn’t find it.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Dale did you search with the ISBN? That's what I did and it came up immediately :)

[Dale]

Brenda wrote: "Dale did you search with the ISBN? That's what I did and it came up immediately :)"
No, just the title and it only came up with hard cover. I'll have tor remember that trick in future. Thanks.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

It will work every time, as long as it's in the system :)

Hi Brenda - I've got an arc from A&U (paperback) with the title of "A Murder at Malabar Hill" publication Jan 2020, ISBN 978 1 76052 940 6

On GR it comes up under the title The Widows of Malabar Hill (Soho) or A Murder on Malabar Hill(Penguin), not exactly the same - on instead of at and different cover, both published Jan 2018. Could you see if you can find the A&U 2020 edition. Thanks :)
