Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Hello! I'd like to explain my situation. In 2014, I published this play called "El hombre que tú necesitas" Well, I hope to re-publish it between 2026 and 2027, but this new edition will have a big change, it's going to be the play turned into a novel. So it's not the play again, it's a novel with the same story and the same dialogues... The question for me is: Would it be considered a new book or is it still understood as a reissue?
I consider it a luxury reissue, but not a new book, because it's going to have the same name and all that stuff.

I'm asking this to help me organize my bibliography on this page. I appreciate any advice and opinions. Thank you.

Best regards,

Jesús.Jesús Barrio Caamaño

The play and the novel would be considered different works.

Ok, thanks!

Would it be appropriate to use that title on Goodreads when the book is finished? Look, "El hombre que tú necesitas (play)" and "El hombre que tú necesitas (novel)" ? In two different profiles? Please tell me ! thanks a lot

No, but we can add a librarian note to the record to clarify.

Thank you! When I publish the novel version, I'll write to you again.
For now, if you wish, you can add that this is the play (the rest of my works are novels). El hombre que tú necesitas

Ok, done.

Thanks!!
