I also released this book for that
reason. I'm thinking that, when we release a book for a
similar reason to this, perhaps we could send a note to the
list, and bring it to the attention of someone who might be
able to fix it.

This discussion of how long books stay on the checkout list
got me to thinking. I notice that many books are taken from
the first page or 2 of results, and not the last pages. I
wonder if more of the older books would be taken, if the
sort order was reversed so that the older books appeared
first. I know I've been guilty of taking the first book that
looks interesting, instead of going through the whole list.

It is "The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous." It has been there
for about two years now and it is actually ready for the
collection except for one problem. There are several pages
near the beginning of the book that contain a list of
characters and a description of each. The problem is that
the names do not match up with the descriptions. I remember
that I released it because I could not tell which name
belonged with which description and I could not quite tell
where one description ended and another one began. It is
likely that that is why others have released it too. I
suspect that a sighted proofreader might be able to tell how
to match them up or, if not, the problem pages might just
need a rescanning. I thought I would just bring this to your
attention so that maybe someone can take a look at it and
perhaps get it moving on its long overdue way.
