It might be an overkill to include a WYSIWYG editor in Marvin just for the sake of editing brief book descriptions.
I'm displaying the book's description as it is because that view is the editor. If you tap the title of the book in the page you'll see that description rendered properly as HTML. As Faterson says, it is overkill to provide an HTML editor in there. On the other hand, I'd rather not strip the HTML tags on import. It might be useful later.
