T. L. (tiagomatos) | 69 comments Hello! Could you please combine these two editions and keep the cover of the first one, as it is of better quality?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Also, the correct list of authors for this book should be:

Luisa Coelho (Editor)
Lídia Jorge, Inês Pedrosa, Ana Miranda, Branca Maria de Paula, Guiomar de Grammont, Lygia Fagundes Telles, Maria Teresa Horta, Teolinda Gersão, Nélida Piñon, Rita Ferro

Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Couldn't you please change the paperback cover to the one linked below then? The current cover is too dark. Is that possible?

What is the source of that cover image?

That's the official cover picture taken from a famous book retail chain. I can also take a picture of my own copy of the book if you find it preferable.

Z-squared | 8576 comments the only retailer we're allowed to use images from is amazon. i can take amazon's cover image, but it's a bit small. a picture of your own copy would be better, if you can take one that is of higher quality. here is amazon's image:

T. L. (tiagomatos) | 69 comments One last thing: the book is from 2005 and has 188 pages. Could someone please add that info?

Z-squared | 8576 comments they actually have different covers. i'm guessing you have a different printing (yours has a red medallion, the other doesn't). If you can confirm the ISBN on yours, I can make an edition with your cover image on it.

It's exactly the same. The red medallion is just a sticker from the publisher.

Z-squared | 8576 comments Hey Rivka, what's the rule on 'stickers' for alternate cover editions? I guess the physical paperback edition has something that theoretically could be removed. Does that mean we can use the larger stickered image to replace the smaller non-stickered image?

No. But if Tiago wants to remove the sticker and take another picture, that's an option.

Jonathan Janz (jonathanjanz) | 5 comments Howdy! I'm hoping you can help me update the cover of my novella WITCHING HOUR THEATRE to the new cover that was recently created. The old cover was designed by Pete Allen, the original publisher (Creative Guy Publishing), and he is totally cool with the new cover taking the old one's place. Of course, I now have the all the rights to the book, but I cleared it with him anyway.

The new cover is by Matthew Revert, and I have the rights to that cover as well. I've linked the novella here, and you'll find the new cover under "Other Images" for the book.

Thanks, and have a great day! :-)

Hi Jonathan,

Goodreads policy is to keep all old covers, even if they are out of print or no longer available. We add new records for new covers. I started a new record for you here:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It would help if you could fill in the blanks a bit. I couldn't find your book for sale anywhere with this cover -- is it being used on a paperback? Ebook? Kindle? For each format it's being used on, could you provide an ISBN, ASIN, BNID, etc.?

Regardless, I've removed the cover image from the 'photos' section of your book (alternate covers are not stored in that section). To set the new-cover edition I've started for you as the default edition, follow the instructions here:
