Yes Dennis I understand that, but also Borders and Barnes & Nobles and Amazon needs to sell books, and they still have a lot of these other books I'm talking about, the ones that perhaps Connect are calling "contemporary fiction" or "other fiction & literature". I'm not saying that Connect should stop offering the romance and thriller books, but just that I hope that they will keep a balance like other book stores seems to be able to do.
