I'd consider "Outlander" to be "girly romance" too, if it's of any interest. I tried to read it and gave up. Not my cup of tea at all! |

I've spent the morning browsing and downloading from the Google library section on Sony. Yes, some editions leave something to be desired as people have mentioned. But, some also don't. I grabbed several books from the Harry Houdini Collection, these are books that are long out of print and will never be a part of PG. Scanning them quickly, they looked fine. I hope the people here who are finding bad texts on Sony's Google site are using the link to report them.

Many - perhaps even most - books that appear on PG are "long out of print". What is it about these particular books that means they will never be a part of PG?
