Paul Secor Hi -
I've tried to add two books to Goodreads and each time I get the response: "1 error prohibited this record from being saved. Captcha response is incorrect. Please try again."

Here is the information for the two books:

Title: Mojo Snake Minuet
Sort by Title: Mojo Snake Minuet
Author: John Litweiler
ISBN: 9781598589757
Publisher: Goodbait Books
Published Year: 2009
Number of Pages: 197
Format: Paperback
Description:

Black people are the majority in America. White people are the underprivileged minority, and now - here comes the bad news - the historic Kaida mojo is missing.

Mojo Snake Minuet is more than a thriller - it blows the cover off the black-and-white race racket, the music racket, the newspaper racket, and the politics and religion rackets, among other shameful rackets.

Edition Language: English

2nd Book

Sort by Title: Epitaphs for Lorine
Author: Edited and Introduced by Jonathan Williams
ISBN: None
Publisher: The Jargon Society

Number of Pages: 34

Thirty Two Poets Celebrate Lorine Niedecker (1903-1970)

I'd be grateful if someone can let me know what I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

Kara | 11 comments Paul, do you mean you get the error when you navigate to the adding page or when you save the information? Are you filling out the CAPTCHA on the very bottom of the page before saving?

I added the two book records for you:

I don't know what the CAPTCHA is. I just filled in the information I gave you and punched in Create Book.
If you can tell me what I'm doing wrong, it will save me from going to the librarians to enter a book.
Thanks.

Kara | 11 comments Just scroll down to the very bottom of the page when you're adding a book and you'll see it. Type in exactly what letters you see in the image into the text box below.
