Bea The SKULL OF CHARLOTTE CORDAY should be written in normal upper and lower case letters. My copy reads: The Skull of Charlotte Corday and other stories.

JC (jmnc) | 638 comments I'm about to read a book for my book club and want to fit it into the challenge, but the title on GR is different from the title on the actual cover of the book, which can be seen on the GR link:
Sisters Coming of Age and Finding Love in the Wild Copper River Valley by Samme Gallaher

The title on GR is: Sisters: Coming of Age and Finding Love in the Wild Copper River Valley but it should be: Sisters: Coming of Age & Living Dangerously in the Wild Copper River Valley. And the only way to find this book in the GR add book/author link is to type in the ISBN, but I'm not sure anything can be done about that. The ISBN is 9780974501420.

Also there are two authors, the other being Aileen Gallaher, which can also be seen on the cover of the book.
Thank you for your help.

Isabell (purzel) | 246 comments I've corrected the title and authors.

Concerning the add book/author link, I've had this problem with other books as well and find searching for the ISBN better anyway, because it gives me the correct edition as well. It seems to be the way the search engine for that link works, but that's just my guess. I can't think of a way to make this more workable for this book. Did you try searching for the author instead of the title? That sometimes does the trick for me.

Bea Just added a new edition of a book - ISBN 13: 9781607889274. But, instead of going in as another edition, it went in as single entry. Can this be added to the other editions so I can elect it?


message 207: by Isabell (new)

Isabell (purzel) | 246 comments Books, even new editions, are always created that way, so that is normal. I combined your edition with the rest.

Bea ISBN 0525955169 The New Mystery 2 by Jerome Charyn

My cover and the GR cover do not have the number 2 anywhere on them. Can you correct the title to be The New Mystery?

Bea My copy of ISBN 006054564X has only 199 numbered pages. There are 4 blank sheets (2 in the front of the book and 2 in the back) and 18 pages for title, introduction, map, etc, which are not numbered. (Well, the introduction has Roman numbering.) GR says that there are 224 pages. Do they count all of those extra pages to get that total?


message 216: by Isabell (new)

Isabell (purzel) | 246 comments The extra pages don't count. I've changed the page number to 199.

Kate had a question about a book title here.

The subtitle appears on a few editions- Should these be changed?
The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook

The subtitles for the different editions of this book were really quite messy. I think I fixed them all now.

I updated the page numbers and changed it to paperback, but the cover currently on that edition is a valid one. I made you an alternate cover edition so your records will reflect your book. You can find it here:
Two for the Dough (Stephanie Plum, #2) by Janet Evanovich .
