I'm from Maryland, too, but further north (Carroll County). I don't know places in Georgetown, but someone suggested putting books inside free paper boxes. That way you don't need to worry ab…

Re: Modifying (correcting) the numbered rating posted
Yes, you can do this. Go in like you're going to edit your original entry. It should ask you to update the book info, just check that you did. The next screen right at the top should give you the same little scale to …
Found mention of this web site on USA Today last week - I think this is a great idea! I released my first book on Monday - Timeline (by Crichton), which I had enjoyed while on vacation in March.
There don't seem to b…
