Jonathan B. B. Hello,
this is my book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It has Jonathan B. Smith as the author, which is my name, but does not connect to my profile, just a blank profile.

When I click this is me, it says, Sorry you are already in the author program as Jonathan B. Smith and only one author profile can be claimed at a time

This is the author profile you have associated with my book:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

This is my profile:
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8...

Can you connect my book to my profile? I don't think that other Jonathan exists...
thanks
Jonathan

Tami Hi, I managed to identify the issue, and I've moved your book to your profile. However, it seems that your profile name needs fixing; currently, it's listed as 'Jonathan^^B.^^Smith.' If possible, please edit it to 'Jonathan^B.^^Smith' (^ represents a space). Alternatively, you can contact support and request them to fix it for you. Since librarians can't see how your name is disambiguated due to your verified profile, this was based on a hunch that luckily turned out to be correct and I was able to guess your name.

Jonathan B. B. thank you so much, you're brilliant! I took the extra space out before my initial by editing my author profile and everything seems to be working nicely.

Do you know if reviews on Amazon are shared with Goodreads or visa versa? I have just a few so far on Amazon, it would be really nice to see them here as well. Thx

Tami You're welcome! I'm glad to hear that your author profile is working well.

As for reviews, Amazon and Goodreads are separate platforms, and reviews are not automatically shared between them. Users on each platform need to write and submit reviews individually. However, some users might cross-post their reviews manually, copying them from one platform to the other.
