Speaking of BSO science fiction, has anyone read Lois McMaster Bujold? She has several books up on the step one page and they've been there for quite a while. I read one, and it's not quite my thing, but I know there are a lot of sci fi readers out there. So I thought I'd mention these to see if anyone would consider reading one. As I said, they've been up there for a long time so it would be nice if someone would validate.


Best,
Allison

I need no prompting, I already have 1 of Carrie's sci fi books, and plan on getting another as soon as I find out the fate of a book I submitted over the weekend.

Great idea Monica.  I'm with ya all the way.  I have two of Carrie's BSO
books downloaded right now. I'm working on one on my desktop and the other
on my laptop.  Both of my books had been on the step 1 page for several
weeks before I got them. Okay, now, who else will join us on this quest? C'mon all!

Best,
Allison

Hi, everybody. Carrrie has been hard at work supplying Bookshare readers
with majorly improved copies of a lot of science fiction books that were
virtually unreadable before she tackled them. I see a bunch of these
that are still on step 1. You can find them quickly if you have your
screenreader search for the letters BSO. At our request, she also
processed a bunch of books about classical music and some classic
mysteries too. Who wants to join me in getting her hard work into the
collection? I'm not a sci fi fan, but I know many people enjoy these
books. I'm taking a book now. I hope it's interesting. Maybe I'll like
it. Whether I do or not, the important thing for me is to support Carrie
and improve the quality of our collection. By Christmas, let's have no
BSO titles left behind. (smile)
