Describe the bug
the image name of cover images have a problem with each other which leads to no shown cover image (see steps:)

Steps To Reproduce

have a shelf with two books
add a cover image (with the name "test.png") to the first book
cover image is successfully shown
add a cover image (also with the name "test.png") to the second book
the second book gets no image, the first book looses its cover image

Expected behavior
obviously should not happen ;)
idea is to maybe rename the picture in the background

Screenshots

Your Configuration (please complete the following information):

Hi @Smoin1,

Thanks for reporting this occurrence but I'm having trouble reproducing this issue. When I follow the provided steps my outcome is different, Both books receive the provided image, with the latter being stored with a prefixed name to avoid conflicts. Could you confirm the following:

Are you using a non-default storage option?
Are you able to re-produce this on the demo site?
