I will report what the list populates, however I'm quite sure there are some spam picks in the top ten right now. Hopefully the spammers will get tired soon and true results will come out in the following months.











*6/29/20 10:32 EDT
*6/30/20 10:47 EDT - a last minute change! The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo jumped up the list knocking off Where the Crawdads Sing











*7/29/20 16:49 EDT - Lots of shake up this month
*7/30/20 10:19 EDT - A last minute change for the number 10 spot.
*7/31/20 10:17 EDT - Normal People is still climbing.

I used alternate covers this month in celebration of Halloween. :-)

I reported this user. Like you said, that person has added those same books to a million lists.

Could you please delete "The Thing About Alice"? Definitely a spam book. Thanks

I'm actually not sure these are spam. If you look at who has voted for these, they've voted for other things and they have decent sized friend/book lists (these are things I look for to determine spammers). I just think we haven't got a lot of people voting on the list so far this year, so those who are voting are having a larger impact. Of course, I could be wrong.

I am suspicious because if looking at the people who voted on the older books in the top ten they are all the same and all private accounts. It does seem like a very dedicated effort and I can't reason why someone would do it but it feels hinkey to me.


I’d guess it’s just a really enthusiastic voter who wants some of their faves at the top of the rankings. But Shannon is right, they’ll be less and less consequential as time goes on.

I'm so basic and read the same things other people do. But no one would accuse me of spam on "Educated" and "Queen of Nothing"
I'd actually say the top ten look legit. They're pretty popular books or have a lot of ratings.

You have to look at who voted for the book. Often times it's a person with only one vote on the list or if you look at their account there's no activity other than voting for a book on multiple lists.

You're absolutely right; it is one of the things I look at. Can't discuss the other things I look at as spammers look at this comment too :-)

2- Several books I suspect are spam have suddenly popped into the top 10 in the past 24 hours, conveniently right in time for the end of the month.

Would it make any difference if I asked you, Sara Bee, Jim The Red Crow, Paige, Dom, EmilyReads, and other identities to kindly stop and just let our list be?

Is there a way to flag the accounts? If they’re doing this here, they’re probably doing it on other lists too.


I can't see a way to flag them.




I was just able to add books without a problem.

Yep. Noticed it a few hours ago. Screen went blank. But the book will appear if you copy the ISBN/ASIN and use 'search'. (Haven't tried adding anything from my own shelves since then.)

That's what I ended up doing. Although unfortunately it didn't bring up the edition I actually read *eyeroll* At least I was able to add it.

Did you copy the ISBN/ASIN of the book on your shelves? I did, and for me it worked just fine.

Yep, it still brought me to the paperback (I've shelved the hardcover). I guess it doesn't matter as long as I was able to vote for it :)

Odd. It worked fine for me. Do the paperback and the hardback have the same ISBN/ASIN on Goodreads maybe?

Have you cleared your cashe and restarted your browser? Also I'm pretty sure all editions are combined in the end anyway.

That might have done it, I was able to search this time. It did end up adding the edition I actually read, even though it said I hadn't read it when I added it :P Ahh, internet...
