Book Listing Mixed Up

Submitted by on

After I posted the third novel in my three-book series on Karen Hansson ("Becoming Karen"), I noticed that a new listing was created that listed the three novels in the wrong order. I did not create the listing, and wish that it were changed so that the books would be listed in the following order: 'To Be Or Not To Be,' 'Becoming Karen,' and then 'Karen's Magnificent Obsession.'

I've had several readers note the confusion. How do I change the listing? Or can someone change it for me?

Thank you, Katherine Day

(The defining of those columnists who offered advice about love as “lovelorn columnists” stems from the 1933 novel, “Miss Lonelyhearts,” by Nathaneal West, in which a trouble-making reporter is “demoted” by his editor to write the newspaper’s female-oriented advice column. The storyline was adapted into a 1933 movie, “Advice to the Lovelorn.” This is a story of how a young boy experiences the same fate.)
