Happy Monday, everyone!
Yes, they come in batches, these Spatz submissions. Why not? <g>
Details are below.
Thanks to all who have been working so graciously and patiently with me on my
scanned book submissions.
I was disappointed to lose my recent McGuane approved book to PQ. But that is
where the ball does bounce once in awhile. And I accept this policy. It does
yield us a huge amount of books, these agreements with publishers. I’m
resolving to not scan too many new books so as to try to be most efficient with
my volunteer time.

TITLE: No One But Us
AUTHOR: Gregory Spatz (1995)
PUBLISHER: Algonquin Books
DESCRIPTION:
With his mother in the hospital after a botched suicide attempt,
fifteen-year-old Charlie goes to live with his mother's best friend,
twenty-six-year-old Jolene. Somewhere in the midst of tickle fights and hugging
and joking around, Jolene's guardianship of Charlie unravels, and soon they are
both irrevocably lost in an affair that neither one is ready for, but that
neither one is ready to resist. "A sharp, witty first novel."--Playboy; "A
promising debut."--Publishers Weekly.
VOLUNTEER COMMENTS:
This first novel by author Gregory Spatz (1995) was scanned using K-1000
version 14. It was formatted with Bookshare standard page numbers, font set to
12 point regular, and the headings, which were not chapter numbers but chapter
or section titles set to 16 point bold. Page numbers do not begin until the
novel starts. I did not insert any pre-page numbers. Ranked Spelling was used
to 100 percent, and I deleted whatever scanos I did find. I have the first
edition hardcover and have the image kept .kes file should we need to
investigate anything in the text. Please contact me at this email. d28rik at
msn dot com.
The book contains some graphic descriptions of sex, which you might guess from
the Publisher Weekly description. Language not strong. It was not flagged for
Adult Content when it was uploaded and analyzed. But I did use the check box
for Adult Content. That is your mostly your call, If figure. Probably most of
us may feel it not suitable for the young readers.
