Hi, thanks for this info.  I thought these titles might have been on the wish 
list for awhile but wasn't sure they were still there since I thought the wish 
list had changed and/or shrunk over the last year.  Thanks again for telling me 
this.  Have a blessed day.

        Three books by Grace Livingston Hill have been on the Wish List for 
ages, as has The Mandie series by Lois Leppard.

        I am very shortly going to redo the wish list. One section is, and will 
be, authors whose books are requested. That list is in alphabetical order by 
author's last name, and individual titles requested by the author are under 
his/her name in alphabetical order.

        At the moment other sections consist of Fiction requests and nonfictin

          Hi, all, when I joined bookshare a little over a year ago, I was 
thrilled to find so many children's books I didn't get to read as a child and 
clean Christian fiction as well as mysteries by Mary Higgins Clark, Phyllis 
Whitney, and others.  I was happy to note books by Grace Livingston Hill and 
Lois Gladys Leppard among the collection.  

          I did notice, however, that there were maybe only 10 out of dozens of 
selections by Grace Livingston Hill, and only a few of the 40 plus titles by 
Lois Gladys Leppard.  I've helped to grow these particular kinds of books while 
at bookshare and will heppily continue to do so.  Some of the Grace Livingston 
Hill titles I'd love to see added are The Enchanted Barn, Daphne Dean, Maris, A 
daily Rate, The substitute guest, stranger within thy gates, Crimson roses, A 
girl from Montana, The finding of Jasper Dale, and others I can't think of.  I 
do not know all the titles of the Mandie and other books by Lois Gladys Leppard 
that need to be added, but many, many, many thanks to those who've contributed 
to this genre.  I wanted to put this out since we had some new people who liked 
this type of book.  If Gwen is already off the list, please, somebody, could 
you forward this to her for books suggestions?  Thanks and have a blessed day 
and happy reading and volunteering.  PS:  Thanks to all who have put in love 
inspired and others lately.
