Thank you!

Traveling Diva (travelingdiva) | 372 comments Sorry we can't use book covers from Amazon (or booksellers in general). If you have one from the publisher or one you made yourself it would be great.

I think you are going to have to reverse it :(

Parul | 191 comments Oops sorry :(
Didn't realize the source in a hurry. Have reverted it back to no cover.

Dru - can you please provide the cover as asked by Traveling Diva.

Leah (flying_monkeys) | 45 comments Okay, I have another one. Also, the title and author are wrong. Would you be able to fix that, too?

ISBN 0-671-81844-9 If You Could See Me Now by Peter Straub Page and Image (Image obtained by scanning my copy's cover.) I also scanned the inside so you could see the publisher information.

Here's the blurb from back cover:

"If you forget, I'll come after you. If you forget God help you." Alison warned him twenty years ago. Before the endless days and nights of fear came to Arden, Wisconsin. Twenty years ago to the day.

Now Miles has returned. But the townspeople have not forgotten what happened when the two lovers swore their oath. Nor has Miles forgotten.

He knows that if Alison keeps her vow, he will not be meeting the maddening seductress of his youth, but a demon of savage appetite and a heart made monstrous by revenge.

Faye Hicks (fayehicks) | 2 comments Hi there - there are some old covers shown for the ebook versions of my novel, Defining Moments, and I would like to update them since they don't reflect the book as it is seen on all eBook vendor sites worldwide. It would be especially helpful to get this fixed since book review bloggers always seem to grab an old one.


These two versions have the incorrect cover:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

This is the correct cover (also used on the paperback version):
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

Would someone be willing to fix this for me?

Thanks very much!

Hi Faye,

Since we're more like a library than a bookstore, we don't change covers of previous listings. What we do instead is create new entries for the new covers and combine them with the old listings so that when someone looks for the book, they find all the listings for it clumped together.

Amara Tanith (aftanith) Hi, Faye. Here at Goodreads we try to keep a record of every cover a book is published under, so we don't change covers. When new covers are released for books, we create alternate cover editions to reflect them, so that members have the option of selecting which cover they actually read/own.

As such, I've created an alternate cover edition for the Amazon Kindle edition here and one for the Smashwords edition here.

Now, I also notice two other things that could use fixing on your books, if you can provide us with the data:

1) Your Amazon Kindle edition here is missing the ASIN number. (Amazon's version of an ISBN.) If you can provide that, we can get it attached to the record so people will be able to find your book if they search for the ASIN.

2) Your paperback edition here accidentally chopped off the last three digits of the ISBN number. (It happens if someone accidentally inputs the ISBN-13 in the ISBN-10 box.) If you can tell us what those digits should be, we'd also like to get that corrected. :)

Amara Tanith (aftanith) Thanks, Faye; details added!

Lynn, I managed to track down a non-bookseller copy of the cover image; also added.

Amara Tanith (aftanith) Got 'em, Peter.

And if you're able to provide the ISBN of The Stars' Tennis Balls, it would be much appreciated. :)
