Once it's 2021 over there. Around 5 or 6pm tonight is when their 2021 arrives so I'm guessing that will happen at the same time.

I feel like last year they weren't that quick with it though. I think I was waiting a few days at least before it updated?

Thanks Brenda, I just saw it now. And I recall the same thing Krystal, it was a few days into January before we could set our reading goal. Lucky it's up now and we can stake our claim on 2021, lol!

BTW if you 'add extra edition' you don't have to worry about combining :)

I know that but there was a stray audiobook which I saw first, rather than the other editions.

message 2626: by Deb (new)

Deb Omnivorous Reader | 1929 comments Hi there marvelous librarians!

There is some kind of glitch with the book I am reading right now. It looks to me like it was incompletely added and this is the result;
https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

The problem is that is all that comes up if I search for the title or author.

If I search by ISBN only, I get the completely added book here;
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Is there a way to maybe delete the incomplete item so that the search takes people to the fully added one?


message 2627: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 1178 comments The author was incorrectly added, so it created a new author profile & whoever added it used the wrong isbn.

Its a duplicate and will be merged, please use the one you got from the isbn search.

And the bad edition is no more. Its now been merged.

Krystal (krystallee6363) | 2304 comments Hello librarians!

Can someone please help me out with this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

This seems to match the edition I have, only my page count is 500; also the title is a weird format that bugs me haha.

If someone could fix it I would be grateful!

message 2632: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 1178 comments You're welcome, though whether the other 2 books get written is doubtful :D

They pop up on bookdepository with publication dates in 2010 and 2011 but neither has a cover and the third doesn't even have a synopsis. So I don't think I will hold my breath for them lol


message 2634: by Sandra (new)

Tarmia, is that supposed to be 97814 etc...? There's only 12 numbers so I think the 8 is missing?

I have found the one already on GR with your ISBN Tarmia - Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia. This one says 304 pages and so did a couple of the other sites. Do you have the physical copy which says 281?

Yes my physical copy only has 281 pages or 283 if you count the authors note at the end of the book.

Krystal (krystallee6363) | 2304 comments Can someone help with this? This one:

Is someone able to combine them or something?
