When I encounter a question like Kristin's, I wait to finish going through the E-mail list, and if others reply as I would, I don't take up everyone's time replying also. I imagine many others do the same so you really can't judge the degree or disagree very accurately I don't believe as we are often asked not to clutter up lists with repetitive opinions. This is in no way meant as a criticism of anyone. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Julie & Miss Mercy" <mercy421@xxxxxxxxx>

It looks like more people are agreeing on this than I thought. This
discussion came up a good while back here and I thought I remembered at
least several people saying they delete those, so I was ready to see at
least a few who didn't agree, but that's OK too, I guess, since
technically it's not core content, but I appreciate seeing them in there
and appreciate anyone who does leave them in.

Courtney,
Yip I agree with everyone here too. It just seemed sort of out of place for
me. I'm still learning everything here and any help is very much
appreciated. Thanks and I hope you are having a great day.

Christin,

For what it's worth, I agree with Mary.  Reading the reviews and
blurbs/info about other books by the author is half the fun for me.

Hi Kristin,

I always include anything in the book, adds, and synopses,
everything if I can read it. A lot of us like to see what folks have said
about the book, or to see what other books might be good to read.

So, I'd include everything that you can make legible.  Sometimes
this kind of stuff scans very poorly.  What you sent looks very readable
though.

Mayrie

Hello everyone.

I am proof reading these is My Words: The diary of Sarah Agnes Prine,
1881-1901 By Nancy E. Turner. I was wondering about the ads in the start

of

the book. Do I leave them alone or delete them from the text? I am
submitting the items below this message and any assistance would be

greatly

appreciated. As of right now I have left them alone. Again any assistance
with this stuff would be greatly appreciated and I'm sure would help all

of

us too. Thanks for your time and cooperation with this matter and I hope
everyone is having a spectacular day.

Kristin Mills
