Do you get a notification if your book is replaced by a PQ version or is it just something you end up finding out?

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] another Gregory Spatz novel was just submitted to Bookshare "No One But Us" (1995)

Happy Monday, everyone!

Yes, they come in batches, these Spatz submissions. Why not?   &lt;g&gt;

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.

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.
