Thank you, Lisa, for your kind words. I must admit, though, that I do read some books that aren't in the collection, books that are too long, with small print, for me to want to scan. But I do feel guilty about it -- I know it's silly. I hope someone else will scan them, expecially if they seem to be recent and popular -- or I rationalize that probably no one, or very few, people would find the book interesting -- or I will scan it later if it never shows up in the collection. I also snuck in a couple of early Bertrice Small books. I've become so addicted that every once in a while I need a "fix." (grin.)
