A long Way Down, by Nick Hornby, is already in the collection. I downloaded
it, which means it was marked excellent because I don't bother with
anything else. If that's the book you're talking about, it seems to have
been taken care of.

Amber,
I'm still number two on the wait list for Nectar in a Sieve. At my other library systems the book is either missing or checked out (not the right edition anyway).
I can't remember who is working on The Long Way Down -- apparently I didn't make a note of that, though I should have -- Scott? I keep thinking Nick, but that's the author's name. Anyway, I'm #35 of 55 holds in one system and 175 for 42 available in the other system. For some unknown reason, the third systemn doesn't have the book. Maybe it hadn't come in yet.
Has anyone else gotten either of those books and helped you out? If so, please let me know and I'll cancel the holds. If not, we can all wait patiently (smile).
I'm also awaiting the arrival of Grace Livingston Hill's Astra, which I have downloaded to fix. Cloudy Jewel is in the Administrator approval pile. When I was looking to see if either of my other two libraries had Astra (they don't) I see that there are many more books by Hill than are in the bookshare collection (there are 10 in our collection--Cloudy Jewel and Astra will make 12). Many of her books have been republished, some in Large Print editions. I pass that info on for those of you who enjoy Christian romances. It probably would be nice to have a complete collection, especially if we can get the older editions that haven't been re-published yet.
