Removing incorrect, automatically generated versions of my book > Likes and Comments

I recently added to my author page a book I have written and published – The Peacemaking. However, when I tried to add the ASIN for the electronic version and the IBSN-13 for the paperback version, I received the following error message: Asin/ISBN-13 "is taken by an existing book with the title "The Peacemaking (The Andrew Grey Chronicles Book".

It seems that Goodreads automatically uploaded my book when I published it though Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.

However, the author details of the automatic version are wrong – they are for a different C.J.Martin from me.

The incorrect versions (both Kindle and Paperback editions) are here:

I could not figure out how to claim the book for myself on Goodreads, so I added new versions to my Author page/profile without the ASIN for the electronic version and ISBN-13 for the paperback version – since Goodreads would not let me add the ASIN and ISBN-13 when they had already been taken by the automatic versions.

But now I am trying to run a Goodreads Giveaway for the book, and I cannot do so without the book having an ASIN or ISBN-13.

How can I claim the automatic versions that took the ASIN and ISBN-13 for my author profile, or combine them with the versions of the book I added myself?

Alternatively, are you just able to delete the incorrect versions from GoodReads?

Moved the two editions with ISBN and ASIN to your author profile. You can see them here:

Note the book pages may take a day to update and link to correct author. I also deleted the two versions you created without ISBN/ASIN as they would be considered duplicates.

Oh and created a series for you:

Due to current system limitations, your new books will likely continue to get auto-imported into the wrong CJ Martin author profile. Please post here in the forums and a Librarian will move them for you.

Sidenote, I recently posted an idea for a better solution: Link an author's Amazon and Goodreads profiles so books get auto-imported to correct place

If you want to check it out and add your support (via commenting on the topic or voting for the idea), that would be fantastic. =)

Thank you so much for all your help! And yes, linking Amazon and Goodreads profiles is a great idea.
