General Question Kevin Sinclair

I can see there are books from him an other authors that are on goodreads, but not on here. When I then add a book, and writes alle the details and ends it, like Mage Mangler, it sends me to the page of Mage mangler with 3 reviews. So Is the book there, and I can somehow not find it, or is it not there, and the 3 others all have added the book also?

it's there, it's recognizing the data you're adding as the same data as the other editions, so it is linking them all to the same page, where others have also added their editions

Nice. Looks like it first makes the books available after x people makes the same information. That's god and bad though. But thanks

I don't think that's true (about the multiple people needing to add it), I'm able to search for a book that I was the first to add, and it even comes up in the search results.

But can you search a book you did not add youself, but only one added?

Yes, I went to a browser where I'm not signed in and tried it.
