Unhappy Metadata: summaries not retrieved

Halfway into adding a bunch of new books to my library today, I stopped getting summaries when I download metadata. It's finding the books, their series (where applicable), their covers, but not summaries, not for anything. Even went back and tried re-downloading metadata on a couple that retrieved summaries earlier in the day, suddenly they're not there. I'm on the latest version of Calibre, and the last update I applied was not today. Anyone else having this issue?

Yes, I've downloaded metadata in bulk and no summary is present for them. I get it when I download them one by one, however.

What metadata sources are you using and post the log from a download that fails to get them.

What happens if you remove the extraneous (By the Book Mysteries) from the title?

I tried searching with just title

Buried in a Good Book
and author
Tamara Berry

and got the following comments downloaded

Code:
"A mystery writer finds solace and murder in rural Oregon...Whimsy meets woodsy"— Kirkus ReviewsDon't miss the first book in a brand-new gripping and hilarious bookish cozy mystery series by author Tamara Berry!Bestselling thriller writer Tess Harrow is almost at the end of her rope when she arrives with her teenage daughter at her grandfather's rustic cabin in the woods. She hopes this will be a time for them to heal and bond after Tess's recent divorce, but they've barely made it through the door when an explosion shakes the cabin. Suddenly it's raining fish guts and...is that a human arm?Tess was hardly convincing Gertie that a summer without Wi-Fi and running water would be an adventure. Now she's thrust into a murder investigation, neighbors are saying they've spotted Bigfoot in the woods near her cabin, and the local sheriff is the spitting image of her character Detective Gabriel Gonzales—something he's less than thrilled about. With so much more than her daughter's summer plans at stake, it's up to Tess to solve this case before anyone else gets hurt. 
Put your sleuthing hat on—Buried in a Good Book features:A thriller writer who knows way more than anyone should about death and dismembermentHer young daughter who's more intrigued by dead bodies than she probably should beAn isolated cabin in the woods that's probably—definitely—hiding somethingThe tiny mountain town that seems less than troubled by a sudden abundance of murders
This was from google, amazon indeed doesnt return comments for this book.

And that will be because amazon has changed the formatting of their book description, now the descriptions and editorial reviews are on separate tabs. Sigh.
