Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Cindy's posted lists

I can leave the synopses in. (I've enjoyed reading
them myself).I've been deleting them. I can also leave
in the quality rating. In an effort to keep the list
from being too long, I've been deleting everything
Jake's list contains except the title and author. 

Would most of you like to see the synopses and quality
ratings? If not, I can send that list separately to
Rose.
