Check and see if there is an internal barcode as well. Sometimes the ISBN and UPC codes are separate from each other.

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

This. I tried scanning the barcode on the back of my Realms books too and it didn't work, but the barcode on the inside of the cover works fine.

I've had a lot of trouble with the barcodes on older Realms Novels reading as the wrong book or not reading at all. It's not just the Goodreads app. I have an Android app that catelogs all your DVDs and books that works the same way, and the issue persists even in that app.

Is for all of the ones you scanned or just a few?
