Adele Jordan Hi all - this seems to be a problem that keeps happening. My books, author Adele Jordan, keep being attached to an author with nearly the same name, Adélé Jordan. This week, a new book in my name has the same problem. Death at the Tower. Could it be moved correctly to my account, please? I don’t want to lose the review I have when it moves. I can also see a book scheduled to come out in February, The Body in the Chamber, is also attached under this author. Could someone let me know please how I move this one across too? Thank you! Is there a way to stop this from happening in the future as it does seem to be a recurring issue I've had to contact Goodreads about before. Thank you.

Martin The automated system cannot distinguish between authors of the same name so books can go astray.
Provide links to the books/editions which need to be moved to your page and librarians will move then for you.

Adele Jordan Thank you Martin. Can it not distinguish when there is an accent over the 'e' as well? Is there no way to avoid this happening in the future please? Thank you for your help.
These are the books that need to be moved to my account:
Death at the Tower - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
The Body in the Chamber - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Martin If you want to know how and why the system behaves as it does you need to contact staff. Librarians are just volunteers with a few editing rights.
