Now it's back up and I can see everything and read my books again - including the one that I had the problem with.

I think I confused the thing... [read 2 pages - wait, I wanted that Anne McAffrey book - go to Amazon store, buy book, assign to collection, and back into the Elizabeth Moon book. Read 4 pages - oops, I only bought the first in the trilogy - go back to Amazon store, buy next two books, assign to collection, and back into the Elizabeth Moon book. Read 6 pages - ok, very distracted now, etc....] Guess it serves me right for giving into my bad impulses and spending too much money on eBooks when I have the hard copies 4 feet behind me on my bookshelf. The trials of a bibliophile...

Thanks again - you've really been wonderful in helping me out here! Next up, updating the author and author sort fields so that I can finally sort by author...
Yeah, and if it was indexing books while you were using the browser, that could especially have set it off even more. Mine doesn't like me to mess with anything when it's indexing.

But glad you're fixed, and have fun!
