I believe Lissi means The Orphan GAME, not Train. Carrie

First, I'd like to ask a favor. If you have taken, The Orphan Train from the
step one page, would you consider putting it back? I have had this book for a
week and made many little adjustments to improve it. I should have renewed, but
hadn't marked the day I downloaded it on my calendar as Cindy does. I planned
to renew it. I expected to finish it during its second week in my keeping. The
print copy just arrived from the library today. I needed it to understand a few
things which didn't scan because they appear in print which is very different
from the text.
This is my first validation, and I'd love to complete the task I started.
Meanwhile, I downloaded, The Ivy Tree, by Mary Stuart, but even more than with
my first book, I will need a library book to help me correct it.
Oh, And, I just got the letter from bookshare telling me they have taken the
book back today. I checked for it on the step one page and it wasn't there.
Maybe it takes a little more time to replace a book on that page, so I will
check it later.
Always With Love,
Lissi

Unless I'm missing something here, if someone was taking books to validate and
then continuing to renew them just in order to read them without paying a
subscription fee, they wouldn't need to renew them at all since once they
download the book, they have it in a file on their computer. They could simply
release the book; that wouldn't remove it from their computer. When I have
renewed books it is because they need work and I am requesting them from the
local library. If I then release the book it is because it hasn't come in to
the library and I don't want to hold it up. guess I'm a perfectionist too but
I do want to make a book as good as I possibly can when I am validating it even
though that isn't required.
