Britt, Book Habitue Oops, I voted for some you'd done, Natasha! So we have a few overlapping.... Oh well, I guess.


message 2: by Natasha (new)

Natasha Maw That's okay Britt! Overlapping is fine, it will just show them as having more votes and move to the top of the list.


message 3: by Becky (new)

Becky R. Hi! I'm sure I added some that were overlaps as well. Natasha, I tried to add authors from the bottom of our Google Doc. list up. I hope it worked! :)


message 4: by Suey (new)

Suey So, if I add some you guys have already done, will it just add a vote for that book, and not actually duplicate the book?


Britt, Book Habitue Right.

My thought was, though, that since we're limited in how many times we can vote, the fewer overlaps we have, the more books we can add.
:)


message 6: by Debbie (new)

Debbie Cranberryfries I just added a bunch more. :) Thanks for this fabulous list.


message 7: by Debbie (new)

Debbie Cranberryfries Quick question. I know two or three authors who are currently living in Utah, though their bio on their book says they are living somewhere else. Should/could I add them to the list?


message 8: by Natasha (new)

Natasha Maw I would go ahead and add them to the list Debbie. Perhaps leave a note here on who they are so we're note confused as to why they are on the list.


Pene|ope • Temp Hyperfixation: WC & OMV Wow. I had no idea how many Utah authors there are! I think I'm going to challenge myself to read all of these!


message 10: by Cindy (new)

Cindy So do we vote for the ones we think are good or what?


message 11: by Natasha (new)

Natasha Maw Cindy wrote: "So do we vote for the ones we think are good or what?"

You get 100 votes total. So that or use them to add in books that you are aware of by Utah authors that currently aren't on the list.


message 12: by Jesse (new)

Jesse Booth How in the world was "Inkheart" written by a Utah author? I thought she was foriegn.

Fumijo Jesse wrote: "How in the world was "Inkheart" written by a Utah author? I thought she was foriegn."

I agree. Is there a way to remove books from the list that obviously don't belong onit? Funke is German.


message 14: by Natasha (new)

Natasha Maw Hmmm . . . great question. I believe only those with "librarian" status can remove books from lists. So I can't do it. I believe that if you added a book yourself you can delete your "vote."


message 15: by Fumijo (last edited Jun 26, 2011 12:58AM) (new)

Fumijo I have librarian status, but I can't see any way to remove a book from the list.

I take that back, I figured it out. So, I removed Inkheart. Any others which absolutely don't belong on the list?

Thanks so much!


message 17: by Fumijo (new)

Fumijo No problem. Please let me know if you find any others.


Britt, Book Habitue Just finished 2 more Utah author books so I added them here: Farm Fresh Murder and As I Have Loved You.
TOTALLY recommend both.


message 19: by Fumijo (new)

Fumijo Thanks!


message 20: by Justin (new)

Justin I added a bunch of books by Utah authors that were not on this list.


message 21: by Allison (new)

Allison um... I thought that Becca Fitzpatrick lived in Colorado...?


Britt, Book Habitue Allison wrote: "um... I thought that Becca Fitzpatrick lived in Colorado...?"

That is what the bio on her website says...


message 23: by MLL (new)

MLL Last I checked Jack London wasn't a Utah author either but I noticed one by him too.


message 24: by MLL (last edited Sep 10, 2013 04:18PM) (new)

MLL How do you define Utah author? Do they have to be born there, live there currently or have lived there in the past?


message 25: by Suey (new)

Suey Melody wrote: "How do you define Utah author? Do they have to be born there, live there currently or have lived there in the past?"

I define it as someone who is published and currently living in Utah. It looks like people have added to this list without quite knowing that definition!


message 26: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Melody wrote: "How do you define Utah author? Do they have to be born there, live there currently or have lived there in the past?"


I'd say any and all of those apply.


message 27: by Judith (new)

Judith Henley I signed up & I cannot add a book by title or author. Do I have to scan the cover...having a hard time navigating the home page. Thank you!


message 28: by Suey (new)

Suey Judith wrote: "I signed up & I cannot add a book by title or author. Do I have to scan the cover...having a hard time navigating the home page. Thank you!"

Adding to this list? or too Goodreads itself? You have to have "librarian" status to add to Goodreads. To add to this list, the book already has to be in the system and then you can add it.


message 29: by Kami (new)

Kami I feel like people are adding whatever they want to this list. How the heck did C.S. Lewis end up here?


message 30: by Suey (new)

Suey Kami wrote: "I feel like people are adding whatever they want to this list. How the heck did C.S. Lewis end up here?"

I have no idea. I guess these lists can get a little crazy since no one really moderates them. C.S. Lewis wrote religious books, right? Therefore Utah of course! I mean... right? LOL.


message 31: by Natasha (new)

Natasha Maw I wish I had librarian status to edit. I know several here that are not.

C.S. Lewis is not from Utah. Sorry, Narnia.


message 33: by Prudence (new)

Prudence Why are my books not on this list?

Prudence Bice


message 34: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Because you haven't added them.


message 35: by Cindy (new)

Cindy Chatwin Please add me to this Utah list! My book, FOUR DAYS-Based on a True Story is partly based in Salt Lake City. I'm a Utah native.
