Hi there, I have recently changed a book cover and am hoping you can update it!

Thank you for your time!

We do not update covers.
If the ISBN/ASIN remains the same you can add an alternate cover edition.

I have added an alternate cover edition. However, I am unsure of how to combine the editions in a way that the new cover is what is reflected in the book listing? Or is that not possible?

If you created an ACE they are already combined. To show the new cover, navigate to that edition and edit it. There will be setting to make it default.

1) Don't break in on someone else's topic but create your own. Now the topic opener will receive message updates which are not of her concern.

2) Barnes & Noble is not an acceptable source for book info and covers; see https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...

3) You are an approved GR author/member of the GR Author Program and as such you should be able to perform these edits yourself. Find out how in this guide.

However, you can't simply exchange the existing cover for a new one, but you will have to create a so-called ACE (=alternate cover edition).

Delete Photo

When it comes to editions that have already been published, we can't actually delete or replace the existing cover images. This is because we don't want to delete an image that a member might have on the book they purchased. Instead, you can create an Alternate Cover Edition and set this as the default edition. That way, anyone visiting your author profile or searching for the book will see this edition first.

To add an alternate cover edition of your book, you can navigate your book's page and click on Add an Alternate Cover Edition. This will transfer all information from the existing edition over to the newly created edition, excluding only the publication date and cover. It also removes the ASIN/ISBN from the old edition and adds it to the new edition. A Librarian Note is added to both editions. You will then need to add the new publication date and cover to the new edition, and save.
