audnex update=1 sometimes causes failures #78
Description
I was noticing some books fail with a 500 URL when querying audnex and I tried opening the URL and got the same 500. I tried removing update=1 from the query parameters and noticed the error when away. Perhaps it should be configurable if the parameter is specified? According to https://audnex.us/#tag/Authors/operation/getAuthorById it's intended to cause audnex to check for updated information, but I guess that sometimes doesn't work because audible is rate limiting audnexus, so perhaps it should be optional, or an option could be provided to skip querying with update=1 after the previous attempts fail.
My example:
Error while requesting https://api.audnex.us/books/B08PC8N4NC?region=us&update=1, attempt 1/3: status code 500, Internal Server Error
If I open that URL in the browser or curl it, I get:
{"statusCode":500,"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"An error occurred while updating book B08PC8N4NC in the DB"}
If I try opening the URL without the update=1 (https://api.audnex.us/books/B08PC8N4NC?region=us) I get:
