I sent some books in back in january which i was told were received, but I see new things added all the time amd just wonder where those books are so, would like to check on thehm since I have others to send in, but am just wondering how long they might be waiting to be processed. I'd like to keep sending to bookshare since if they interest me and hopefully someone else, and i don't know if this has just been a rough period the last few months, but am a little disappointed when there is new stuff all the time nothing being anything i have donated and i send in the books themselves since the inhouse equipment is much better than mine so feel sure they would've have been rejected. Anyone else seen books take several months to process?----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Yates" <mirxtech@xxxxxxxxx>

Just submitted, Tales of a Drama Queen: Back cover: The only thing Elle Medina has ever been a strong candidate for is a department store credit card . . . APPLICATION FOR TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENT Name: Elle Medina Marital Status: I'm separated from my fiance, Louis Ferris. Occupation: He was a highly paid attorney. Employment History: You mean mine? Technically I haven't exactly worked before. But I'm motivated and I work well with others. Most others. Usually. Career Goals: I thought I was happy with Louis, but now I'm not sure. Ever since he dumped me for some floozy from Iowa, I've been thinking I should find out what I'm good at and pursue it in a formal job-type way. Salary Requirements: I need my own apartment (currently staying on friend's sofa) and a car. And I've always wanted a dog. Oh, and I definitely need
a
shopping trip. Elle Medina must be qualified for something other than shopping and causing trouble, but when she moves to Santa Barbara after the disastrous end of her engagement, just what she's suited for isn't clear. Bartender? Private eye? Phone psychic? It seems like everything she tries ends in humiliation or legal action--or both. Her best friend is getting sick of her, her new boyfriend's a con artist and her creditors are on her trail. So why is this the happiest Elle's been in years? In her debut novel, Lee Nichols will take you on a wild ride as she spins her tales of a drama queen extraordinaire who manages to charm everybody in her path, even as she's spilling her drink on them. Lee Nichols grew up in Santa Barbara, California. She currently lives in Maine, where she's working on her first husband and second novel.
