My vanity: Goodreads contributions

So I decided to be vain and just list out book pages on Goodreads I created BECAUSE of this blog lmao. Not counting pages edited to correct info, and not counting editions I myself actually would shelve:

Disclaimer ♥

☞ All the social media icons in articles of this blog are from the set "Colorful guache social media logos" created by Side Project (Ruth & Sira García)
☞ All book covers in articles are directly from Goodreads; if images failed to display, likely some unfortunate edits were done and resulted in the deletion. (I take linking editions seriously.) I don't care to be bullied to instantly adjust my published content to accommodate what's happened, when the content themselves were questionably changed. That said, I'm sure nothing would really come off my personal sense of rebellious; I have contacted GR about this type of edits, but if nothing is done for over one year, I'll admit my defeat (since it's not my incompetence for being unable to revert those edits,) and resort to manually fixing the posts. Known affected series:

☞ The Uncommoners - Jennifer Bell
☞ Charlotte Holmes - Brittany Cavallaro
☞ Study - Maria V. Snyder
☞ Shades of Magic - V.E. Schwab

Note: The Staff response I received stated that those edits "had to" be made, due to previous existing pages "having problems;" there seems to be no pattern for the targets of this type of edits, so doesn't look like something that can be prevented from Users' end.

☞ Wikia/Fandom has been more aggressively closing smaller communities since mid 2020; a couple of wikis I provided links for unfortunately suffers from that fate, however, if you've once contributed or would like to work on it, contacting Fandom within a month of their closure can in fact get them to reopen those communities for you. Known domain names for closed communities:

☞ the-winternight-trilogy
☞ thegreatlibrary
☞ everlife

Note: I found out about the "within a month" restriction by experience, as in, unfortunately, the above can no longer be recovered intact, and have to be recreated from scratch. I decided to not remove the links, just to show that they've once existed, albeit with room of improvements. To random passersby, if your on a community with less than 20 articles, you might want to enrich them for preventing them from being closed.

It's a 2 for at most 2.5; I usually don't rate books early on before finishing it entirely (I had 4 chapters left as I wrote this), but at this late in the game, I don't think anything could be that much a save. A digitized ARC of this ...

I never finished this book (bought it when the film came out); now adding it to the currently-reading list and truthfully placing it to the on-hold list cuz I've put it on-hold for a decade (lmao, time flies). BTW, although the edition ...
