It's a new month... time for some new bug fixes!
While Matt is still working on harnessing the book data that we all have contributed to, and making it available for searches, he's also been rather busy fixing other things, and even adding some nifty little features. Read all about it in this Announcements forum post.

From back cover:
Thirteen-year-old Sophie is the only girl among the surly crew of The Wanderer, made up of her three uncles and two cousins. They sail across the Atlantic toward England, the land of Bompie, her grandfather. The sea calls to Sophie – promising adventure and the chance to explore and discover. But the personal journey she takes brings her deeper into a forgotten past than she ever knew she could travel to. Sophie’s thirteen-year-old cousin Cody isn’t even sure why his father brought him along on this voyage. Everyone, including his dad, thinks he’s nothing but a knuckleheaded doofus. But despite all the goofing off, he wonders if he has the strength to prove himself to the crew and to his father. Through Sophie’s’ and Cody’s travel logs, the amazing experiences of these six wanderers and their perilous journey unfold. Stories of the past and the daily challenges to survive at sea swirl together as The Wanderer sails toward its destination, and its passengers search for their places in the world.
A Newberry Honor Book.
