I have received multiple reports from members that they are not able to use the Add button with most of their recommendations, and on the corresponding work pages for those recommended books.
This appears to be a problem with Add Books Express, separate from other Add books issues recently reported, that have more to do with book sources.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Proceed to your Recommendations page: https://www.librarything.com/recommendations
2. Click on the +Add button underneath a recommendation: the Add Book lightbox will appear
3. Click on the +Add to Your Library button
5. You will receive the following message: There was a problem adding the work. Please use the Add books page.
Note: I tried this on my own recs and found that more than 90% had this issue—all newer titles that you would think Add Books Express would work on. The same issue occurred for each of the same books, when using the +Add button on their work pages.
