What to do if there are two novels in one book?

What to do if there are two novels in one book? For example, in this edition (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...) there are 2 novels - Hot Snow and Platoons. But it is mentioned as just one of the editions of Hot snow. What to do with another novel in this book?

I've separated them out. Books that have more than one work in them should not be combined with single books.

[Anton]

It means that all the reviews of other users on the page of each novel will be missing on this common page, right? Maybe there could be a link to the page of each novel?

Reviews are linked to the edition that a person chooses, so if people reviewed the dual-book, their comments will stay with it. Likewise, those who reviewed Hot Snow will have their comments stay with Hot Snow. Does this answer your question Anton?

[Anton]

Actually not. When I open pages with different editions of one book (for example, the Girl with a dragon tattoo - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/65... and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/76...) - I see the same reviews for all the 150 editions. And that really helps, because I am reading Russian edition, but I want to know what people all over the world think about the book. But it's different in case of Hot snow, because after the edition with two novels was separated I cannot see all the reviews of Hot snow which are on its own page.

There's really no way around it. Books can only be linked if the entire contents are the same (not including things like introductions).

Ok, thank you, Scott.
