Yay!

One concern I have is for what appears to have been a combination problem. The Great Gatsby: A Graphic Novel Adaptation by Katharine Woodman-Maynard (Candlewick Press) is linked to the original The Great Gatsby in the ER listing.

Shouldn't the new graphic novel be its own work?

Nice selection for me this month. Two that I'm very interested in, (Nothing Short of Wondrous and The Love Note) and several more that I'd request if I weren't afraid of diluting my chances at the top two.

It's exciting to see The Broken Raven! There are a few others that interest me, too, one of which is The King of Jam Sandwiches. I'll have to think about it though!

I'm excited about The Broken Raven too. The first book was excellent.

I'm most interested in Fruit Rot by James R. Gapinski and Bloodlaced by Courtney Maguire. However, I will be watching for reviews of Woodman-Maynard's graphic Gatsby and Lea Singer's novel about Vladimir Horowitz and Nico Kaufmann, The Piano Student. Those two are very tempting, too.

>2 aspirit: Probably, especially if any text was changed. The combiners group will know how to fix it. It may have not been imported into the LT system yet so it's bringing up the closest search result.

I'm in for Gatsby (I doubt I'll read the book but a graphic novel sounds good), Sylvie, (another graphic novel) and the shared reader for kids with language issues.
