I'm willing to do either or both when I finish my pile,but it will probably 
take a while to get the books. Breathe My Name, even though it was published in 
2007, is on order at one library and the other only has one copy, which is out 
and has holds. Fake Boyfriend also has hold.

People,I'm validating a book of Mayrie's now, and did some of her Princess 
Diary books, and let me see that she does perfect scans. They're a pleasure to 
read and little work is required on the part of the validator.
