Multiple authors who share the same name really messes up searches.

Authors who use the same book title as an already existing book title by another author. Just pick an original title.

But my peeve is when a book is reissued and they drop (or add) the middle initial. Now {Series} is a real pain. Using {Authors} as a tie breaker does not always work (a Universe where many play). I resorted to adding The initials of the initial author to the series name 'Duplicate name (JB)' |

I believe a lot of people bought the wrong author of "The Girl on the Train", or whatever it is called. Some quite high profile authors have similar titles, "Magician". Also there are similar titles "The <insert occupation>'s Daughter" |
