Hi all.

 

In checking the status of the scans I've submitted, I noticed that "What Do
Women Want" by Erica Jong is back on Step 1.  It looks like someone had it
for a week and then returned it on 12/16/07.  Since it hasn't been
downloaded again by that person, I'm guessing that she decided not to work
with it.  It's a very clean scan and a great book, so if anyone else wants
to take it on, it's there for the taking.  As usual, if there are any
errors, don't struggle with them, just let me know and I'll rescan pertinent
pages or have Tom look up things we can't figure out from the print copy.

 

Strawberry Tattoo by Lauren Henderson is also still there.  It looks like
Tricia Netzley had it for two weeks and then the anonymous BookShare
volunteer got it and returned it.  I don't recognize Tricia from this list,
but if you're on here and there's a problem with the book, please let me
know.  Otherwise, as far as I know it's a clean scan of my usual quality and
it's an easy validation  for someone as well as a fun read.

 

Two other books haven't even been downloaded at all:

 

The Beautiful Room by Edmond White, a beautifully written, lyrical novel
about coming of age as a homosexual

 

The Televisionary Oracle by Rob Brezsney.  Now I know in my original posting
of this book I called it "out there even for me" and it's true that it's far
from mainstream, but it's really very funny and he has quite a following in
the college age crowd, so I hope this one gets in the collection.

 

I don't need the credits, but I don't like to keep adding books when others
are still waiting validation.  If there's a problem.well I'm starting to
repeat myself, but seriously, I'll do any fixing necessary.

 

Thanks, and happy validating!

 

Donna
