MaryAnn: I am trying to launch a new solo read. I have never been able to do so smoothly. (I have never had a Code generated when I click "NEXT!). What do I do after I "copy" the form?
I have not finished my current book, but want to be sure to launch "Poor White" by Anderson Sherwood, before someone else does so. Thanks, Bob

(I can't seem to paste my book description into the intro. I will place it below, in the hope that you or Mary Ann can put it in the right place.)
This Maugham classic is set in England and Hong Kong and in a cholera --ridden Chinese village in the 1920's. A committed, principled, epidemiologist, Dr. Fane, falls in love with the beautiful, but vain and foolish, Kitty Garstin. She agrees to marry him only because she wishes to beat her sister to the altar. She soon commits adultery with a British official in Hong Kong, where they have relocated. Dr. Fane decides that she must accompany him to a small village, deep within China, where cholera is rampant; otherwise, he will reveal the betrayal, with grave consequences for all. It appears to be a suicide mission. The story is one of love, of a search for meaning of life, of forgiveness, and of personal growth and change. The inner thoughts of the several characters--especially Kitty--are thoroughly painted by Maugham. The title presumably refers to the veil of illusion that often hides the truth we feel about ourselves. We will not spoil for the reader the surprises that make this a compelling novel.

Bob,
don't forget to fill in the section titles in the MW ... even if it is just "Chapter 1", etc.
Thanks.

This completes the book. Let me know if the way I have completed the Chapter section is incorrect. Recall that there were many short chapters (80), so that I grouped them into 14 sections.
