If you don't mind me asking, how long does it take for an added book to be searchable on Goodreads? Once the request was closed I searched and I couldn't find it by title, author or using the ISBN. So, I'm askign to inform myself. thanks

Because of the system cache, they tells us 48 hours. I always place the link to the book when I am creating one. ISBNs / ASIN always show immediately. It is one of the reason GR started showing the internal ASINs. It helps greatly, especially for non-Latin alphabets.I found one of your requests that had been closed. The book was never created. I found it odd they linked how to claim the profile, instead of the ACTUAL book. I created it. Is this why you were asking? Nighttime in the Cat Café Library
Yes. Oh my! Thank you so much. I appreciate this so much. It means a lot 🙏
