Will not let me review an early reviewer book

When I click on it, it tells me the book is not in my catalog but is showing up on my wins and not reviewed, because I cannot review it. Am I doing something wrong, missing something?

Used to be you had to click that you had received the book first. I haven’t look at the page since it was updated though.

Have you added the book to your account via the add books page? You can't review anything that you haven't added to your library/catalog, and winning an Early Reviewer book doesn't automatically add it to your account/library/catalog.

It's difficult to know what's going on without a link to the book in question. If the ER book is not in your catalog, one of two things is happening:

* You never added it. Go ahead and add it to your catalog - winning a book from ER does not automatically add the book, nor should it.

* The copy you added is not correctly combined with the ER one, so that even though you added the book the ER system doesn't recognize it as being the same. You can combine them yourself if you're comfortable doing so, or post links here or in the Combiners! group and someone else can do it.
