32. Brain Trust by Christopher Golden and Rick Hautala, mass market, 241
Pages followed by the first chapter of another Golden book. Very graphic
medical language used in this book. Bkshare has another book called Brain
Trust but I think not this one.
Several scanners who have been adding to Bookshare's collection for years
often pitch in to help me get books I've acquired added and I'm so grateful
to them. I hope if any new volunteers see this they'll feel comfortable to
request a book and join this effort. This has taken me several hours to
prepare because I read print slowly and with many false starts but I hate to
donate these books to the library knowing Bookshare doesn't have them yet.
Hope to have many responses.
