It looked to me like it wouldn't take that much to fix the books.  If someone 
else downloads the books and rejects them, then I'll remove them from 
consideration. (I did remove a lot of other books.)

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] fair books I rejected are back on step 1


I 
rejected 
several 
romances 
with 
"fair" 
ratings. 
They 
are 
back 
on 
step 
1 
with 
comments 
by 
Carrie.


the 
books 
are
No

or 
bows
the

Broken 
Vows, 
Mended 
Hearts

Book 
3)

Just 
letting 
you 
folks 
know 
in 
case 
somebody 
wants 
to 
put 
in 
all 
the 
effort 
it 
will 
take 
to 
fix 
up 
these 
mysteries. 
I 
think 
there 
is 
a 
lot 
of 
work 
here 
though 
some 
may 
find 
it 
interesting 
to 
fix 
these 
up. 
If 
you 
have 
a 
lot 
of 
time, 
here's 
your 
chance 
to 
fix 
up 
fair 
scans.
