iReading on Facebook
Jul. 22nd, 2007 09:55 pmSo, Dragon requested that I put my reading up on facebook, using the iReading application. So, I have been entering some choices there.
The first 4 books I chose were not available. I couldn't even add them manually, as it requires an ISBN and some of them predate ISBNs or have ASINs instead. *grumbles*
Now, of course, I am not going to remember what they are.
I can, perhaps, understand their not having The Ghost of Dibble Hollow (May Nickerson Wallace, 1965, Scholastic Book Service) or What Can We Do With Blocks? (Frances Shaine, 1964, Wonder Books). And maybe Samax the Gladiator (Robert Faraday, 1965, Dell Seal Books) should not have shocked me. That it took my finding the ISBN for Linda Silverman's Counseling the Gifted and Talented was a surprise, as they had multiple titles for Kazimierz Dabrowski, including two in POLISH!
I have dutifully entered a bunch of books I have read and will enter more later, I am sure. But I find little or no pattern to the books they do not have vs. those that they do.
eta: They didn't have The Gilead Bomb by David Sinclair (1965, Dell), either!
