The book is rated Excellent. If it's still there when
I've finished what I have and what I've promised to do
I'll take it. Mike, is that the one I gave you a
couple of pages for? That takes place in Minnesota and
ends up in the woods, I think. The pages I did made me
curious and I read the end, but decided I didn't want
to keep the book to read. However, as I said, if it
stays on the download list I'll take it.

Jackie, you don't understand. When I saw the book
back on step one, I
contacted Claire directly. She emailed back stating
that she had finished
the rejection process: she did not place the book
back on step one. The
book was back on step one because Christine Taylor
resubmitted the book. If
I go back to this resubmitted book, I need to treat
the book as if I haven't
seen it before. It's not a special book to me so
I'm not sure I want to do
that. There are too many good books waiting to be
validated that are
interesting.Mike
